Deploying a different product for every threat is like puzzle-piecing your roof together, making your roof vulnerable to gaps and leaks such as viruses, hacks, phishing, spam, distributed denial of service, SQL injection, and cross-site sculpting. ## [![Effortless Security with Barracuda Total Threat Protection](https://blog.vlcm.com/hs-fs/hub/416647/file-2833629411.png)](https://cta-service-cms2.hubspot.com/ctas/v2/public/cs/c/?cta_guid=14c4f213-d2ba-43cf-87a0-0c74ffbab441&placement_guid=c84d37e9-b383-4e2d-aea0-8f8fdb6d2363&portal_id=416647&canon=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.vlcmtech.com%2Fblog%2Fsimplify-your-it-security-barracuda-total-threat-protection&redirect_url=APefjpG4bWtP1ue0K3loE8srO1ciBH_YJlraLV9OFA7H1GdQtpcf2wVJAuUIyDx3zERqQXJMto9rS2Wnd8f5hRE4LwE7CpQXV052zqWSkTeRCAbYT-k8DTXk9h_nMwTVBIvOUYNNChHnPdsZzlkU1CqCJiEV7onX-JzKYAOf4ttF1z3SxERRaQRq8m39HFGSSypJCFMvLJUvi1Wp-xHuxZTIYiULVSUQrWzAgksbnvxSsEOxatF33BWhqL_u-pCEwHgHsGhYMJhk7SjeVclCvu_AhaTRjhtXj2RK9kNbkQx0vr5VGyAfR7o&click=1728a9fc-5300-4797-a614-26fc41798a68&hsutk=b76df0633fbde8afe6a0154df73023c8&pageId=2840666662&__hstc=65418545.b76df0633fbde8afe6a0154df73023c8.1534144491240.1534497728274.1534504193165.6&__hssc=65418545.2.1534504193165&__hsfp=877493044) Think of Barracuda's Total Threat Protection solution as a sealed roof over your organization’s head. Deploying a different product for every threat is like puzzle-piecing your roof together, making your roof vulnerable to gaps and leaks such as viruses, hacks, phishing, spam, distributed denial of service, SQL injection, and cross-site sculpting. These gaps not only leave your organization open to storms and breakins, but also cost you money for constant ‘band-aid’ repairs. Barracuda’s blueprint relieves the burden of having to keep up with the less-than-par repairs and managing your several security solutions - all while while saving you money. Don’t arm your roof with nothing but a roll of duct tape and buckets to save you from the rain, check out how Barracuda can protect you from a storm of threats. ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/2wIO2MgFrGvSOPN_aME_YCeqYjsiyyDXs1cJY9t9291aN4UQVNlCRp-RbIIfYWGG4zmcHgz2biuDOxpDcZnmwHwIZ4zSX8OSvxtykp56_tkGSMQOjig2d4kU2e6m8WXgfuPGsEk) Source: [Barracuda](https://www.barracuda.com/programs/totalthreatprotection) ## BARRACUDA’S ROOF IS HELD UP BY THE FOUR PILLARS OF PROTECTION: ## AFFORDABLE, NEXT-GENERATION NETWORK SECURITY Holding the keys to a secure network doesn’t have to be overwhelming or time-consuming.
