“As cybercriminals are working towards bigger paydays in the future, the security industry needs to continue to create solutions that are easily consumable for companies of all sizes,” said Fleming Shi, CTO at Barracuda.

“Cybercriminals are getting sneakier about who they target with their attacks, often targeting employees outside the finance and executive teams, looking for a weak link in your organisation,” said Don MacLennan, SVP, Barracuda.

The new contract builds on the existing partnership between the Mindware and Barracuda companies that extends to the Gulf and Levant countries, which saw the distributor successfully grow Barracuda’s regional business and market share.
