Barracuda Networks has introduced a powerful new solution designed to protect Microsoft Entra ID environments from data loss, ensuring businesses maintain secure and uninterrupted access to critical applications. The Barracuda Entra ID Backup Premium offers fast, reliable recovery of identity data, strengthening cybersecurity defenses against both accidental deletions and malicious attacks.
Integrated seamlessly with the BarracudaONE platform, this solution provides IT teams and managed service providers (MSPs) with centralized visibility into backup status, data health, and storage insights. Its multi-tenant support makes it an ideal choice for organizations looking to streamline identity protection management while scaling operations efficiently.
“Identity is the backbone of modern digital business, any disruption can bring operations to a standstill and expose companies to serious risks,” said Neal Bradbury, Chief Product Officer at Barracuda. “With Entra ID Backup Premium, we’re filling a crucial gap in identity security by adding rapid recovery to our existing detection and response capabilities. Unlike fragmented solutions, we deliver a unified approach that simplifies protection while enhancing resilience.”
The platform safeguards 13 critical identity components, including users, groups, roles, administrative units, app registrations, and audit logs. It also protects authentication policies, BitLocker keys, and device configurations, ensuring a fully resilient identity environment.
“For MSPs like us, securing Microsoft 365 is non-negotiable,” said John Quatto, a channel partner manager at Zobrio. “Ransomware attacks can devastate access to essential systems. Barracuda’s solution closes a major security gap by integrating seamlessly into the BarracudaONE platform, offering a comprehensive, scalable defense that’s easy to deploy and manage.”
Advanced features like real-time monitoring, granular search capabilities, and five-tier role-based access control (RBAC) provide IT teams with the visibility and control needed to manage identity security effectively.
