New Barracuda SSL VPN 180 Features Compact Form Factor and Supports up to 15 Concurrent Users in a Single Unit Interop 2009, Las Vegas, May 20, 2009 – (Booth # 621) – Barracuda Networks Inc., today launched the Barracuda SSL VPN 180, the newest addition to the Barracuda SSL VPN product line. Today’s launch strengthens Barracuda Networks’ position as the price and performance leader in SSL VPN technology: priced at $699 with no per user fees and support for up to 15 concurrent users, the Barracuda SSL VPN 180 is the most affordable SSL VPN solution for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). “Until now the SMB market has had very few secure remote access solutions to choose from, primarily because the current offerings are too expensive or too complex,” said Stephen Pao, vice president of product management for Barracuda Networks. “With the Barracuda SSL VPN 180, we are lowering the point of entry by bringing powerful technology in a form factor that is easy to deploy and maintain and that is priced well within the budget constraints of even the smallest of businesses.” In addition, the full Barracuda SSL VPN line will now offer a cache cleaning utility to protect information accessed by users who access internal network resources remotely from a public or shared computer through the Barracuda SSL VPN. When enabled, the cache cleaning utility automatically runs when users logout or disconnect, clearing all traces of the secure session from the Web browser cache and history. The Barracuda SSL VPN product line now also features administrator tools that allow policy enforcement for network access control based on client operating system or Web browser version. These policies can be used to ensure that end user computers are updated to the latest versions and free of known vulnerabilities prior to gaining access to network resources. Pricing and Availability Barracuda SSL VPN 180 is available now starting at $699 with no per user fees. International pricing and availability varies depending on region.
