Provides secure zero trust access to any workload without the need for a VPN

Barracuda CloudGen Access


SaaS solution for secure remote access across all your workers and external parties without the need for VPN to any workload regardless of cloud or on-premises.

Barracuda CloudGen Access provides remote, conditional, and contextual access to resources and reduces over-privileged access and associated third-party risks. With CloudGen Access, employees and partners can access corporate apps and cloud workloads without creating additional attack surfaces. Our Zero Trust model is based on rules and conditions that essentially require the accessing entity to prove that they are allowed – i.e., trusted - to access that particular workload.

While most zero trust models seem complicated, ours is a SaaS-based solution that provides instant provisioning and seamless access – your remote workers aren’t even aware that zero trust is being applied. We also provide zero trust across all Microsoft cloud workloads as well as on-premises and even other clouds. Our free 14-day trial allows you to experience Barracuda CloudGen Access securing remote access in real-time before purchasing.


Barracuda CloudGen Access features include:


  • Clients for virtually any type of access device

  • Remote, conditional, and contextual access to resources

  • Phishing and threat protection at the device level, i.e. the edge

  • High-performance access without the network latency and battery drain of legacy VPN products.

  • Deploys as a highly-available microservices cluster that can automatically scale up and down

Frequently asked questions:


Is CloudGen Access appropriate for cross-data silo operations – for example, Extract-Transform-Load data farming for Machine Learning?

Yes - Barracuda CloudGen Access is likely the best method to ensure disparate data providers remain “in their swim lanes” while providing direct network access to only what they’re entitled to use.


How does CloudGen Access compare to Entra ID Proxy management?

These solutions can work together if that’s appropriate for your IT stack: CloudGen Access goes beyond what Entra ID Proxy provides by extending access control beyond Microsoft apps and services (a requirement for most companies).


Are there specific web app dependencies for Barracuda CloudGen Access?

When deployed in Azure, CloudGen Access can leverage Entra ID Premium Tier 1 or 2 to maintain its authorized user directories but there are no specific dependencies.
