Zero Trust Access Policies

  • Last updated on

Barracuda SecureEdge allows administrators to define a number of policies that specify the access requirements associated with the various resources that the Barracuda SecureEdge Agent can connect to. As with SD-WAN and security policies, there is a zero trust access policy per workspace or tenant. The Barracuda SecureEdge Agent allows users or groups of users to connect to different resource types like custom apps or public endpoints such as SaaS services. The policies also define the security attributes, such as the security inspection and device posture of the device itself, that must be in place to grant access. A zero trust access policy defines the resources made available to end users of the Barracuda SecureEdge Agent and the associated access restrictions.
