Barracuda and Cork Partner on Cyber Warranty for MSPs

Cloud-first security solutions provider Barracuda Networks announced it joined forces with Cork, a specialized cyber monitoring and warranty company, to launch an exclusive cyber warranty program tailored for MSPs and their SMB clientele.

The offering, Barracuda Cyber Warranty, is now an important component included as part of Barracuda's comprehensive managed services portfolio.

The combination of both offerings helps MSPs to have the capabilities needed to proactively address cyber threats today. With a dedicated warranty program, they can more confidently navigate the increasingly complex digital landscape.

"Digital assets are critical, yet expensive and difficult to protect. Even with the most sophisticated security solutions in place, it is impossible to remove all threats due to the human element at play," said Carlson Choi, CEO of Cork. "Barracuda XDR delivers that hygiene by building concentric rings of security layers with extended visibility. Cork complements that approach perfectly, and we're thrilled with the opportunity to work with Barracuda's network of MSPs."

The financial safeguard against the costs associated with cyberattacks also enhances the value proposition of MSPs.

If a cyber attack does occur, the warranty helps facilitate expedited and more comprehensible payouts. Coupling it with third-party cyber insurance further increases the benefit of financial assurance.

"Barracuda XDR offers comprehensive protection against cyberattacks across the entire attack surface of a business," said Neal Bradbury, SVP, MSP Business at Barracuda. "By teaming with Cork to offer cyber warranty services, we are providing important financial protection, while enabling MSPs to leverage Barracuda's advanced technology to help prevent and mitigate cyberthreats. If something does happen to a customer's business, together we've got them covered."
