Inbound Email Filtering (Stop email-borne threats before they hit your email server): Outbound filtering keeps sensitive data from leaving your
organization while simultaneously ensuring that legitimate emails are
delivered without being put on spam block lists.
Employees can inadvertently allow their email to be used for botnet spam. The outbound filter stops outbound spam and viruses.
Administrators can also create and enforce content policies to
prevent sensitive data such as credit card numbers, social security
numbers, HIPAA data, customer lists and other private information from
being sent by email. Policies can be automatically encrypt, quarantine
or even block certain outbound emails based on their content, sender or
recipient.
Outbound Email Filtering (Protect your critical data from escaping your business):Outbound filtering keeps sensitive data from leaving your
organization while simultaneously ensuring that legitimate emails are
delivered. At the same time, outbound filtering also blocks outbound
spam and viruses, preventing your employees or other infected clients
from inadvertently sending malicious email, as well as keeping your mail
server IP addresses and domains from being listed on spam block lists.

Secure Your Communication with Encryption and Spooling:Your emails can travel through many different servers before they
reach the intended mailbox. The Barracuda Email Security Service
secures your mail by encrypting it during transport to the Barracuda
Message Center, encrypting it at rest for storage in the cloud, and
providing secure retrieval by your recipients through HTTPS Web access.
Data in-motion is secured via Transport Layer Security (TLS), and data
at-rest is secured via AES 256-bit encryption.
If you are sending a sensitive email, you can manually mark it for
encryption. However, you can also create a policy automatically encrypt
emails based on their sender, content and other criteria. Encryption
policies ensure that your organization complies with regulations
designed to protect customer data, such as HIPAA.
All of the encryption in the world is meaningless if your emails
don’t get delivered. In the event of a disruption in your mail server,
email can be spooled on Barracuda’s Cloud Protection Layer for up to 96
hours. An alternate destination can also be specified for delivery if
delivery to the primary destination fails.
Works with On-premises and Hosted Email Systems:Whether you manage your own mail server such as Microsoft Exchange or use a hosted service like Office 365,
the Barracuda Email Security Service takes only minutes to set up.
Regardless of where your email resides, the Barracuda gives you much
greater control and protection over your email communication.
For a purely on-premises solution, we also offer the Barracuda Spam Firewall
which provides the same features as the Barracuda Email Security
Service in a plug-in hardware appliance or a downloadable virtual
appliance. The on-premises appliance automatically connects to our
secure cloud to get the latest threat definitions and software updates,
as well as to offload processing during peak load times and to spool
emails in case your mail server goes down.
