Facility Standards
Barracuda Networks leases space in a number of Tier 3 and 4 facilities across the world. Each of these storage locations is equipped with:
Controlled access systems requiring key-card authentication and physical check-in
Video-monitored access points
Intrusion alarms
Locking cabinets
Climate control systems
Waterless fire suppressant systems
Redundant power (generator backup, UPS, no single point of failure)
Redundant Internet connectivity
The Barracuda Cloud Storage infrastructure boasts high-quality RAID hardware with hot-spare drives in every file server, and near instant data
mirroring over high-speed fiber connections between the storage locations.
Storage
In the United States, data is transmitted from Barracuda Backup Servers to one data center, and then replicated to another. The process of
replicating data begins immediately after it is copied from a Barracuda Backup Server, and runs continuously. Data in Barracuda Cloud Storage is
stored in parts, and no single computer in the storage system has all the parts required to reconstruct data. Each of these computer systems
communicates in unison to deliver restored data securely. This diverse storage system serves to further strengthen the physical security of your
data.
With this architecture, Barracuda Networks equipment can maintain up to three distinct copies of your data which can be stored in three
geographically separate locations.
Oversight
Access to Barracuda Backup Servers is limited to approved Barracuda Networks employees on an 'as needed' basis. Employee activity is logged,
and all logs are archived to an independent storage device.
