        information easily without knowing specifically if the data is stored in

Extending Data Protection Plus
Barracuda recently announced its Data Protection Plus initiative, expanding the company's footprint in the midmarket with new products and enhancements to make it simple for customers to access, retain and share their critical information. As part of this initiative, Barracuda announced its acquisition of C2C to accelerate the company's archiving and information management strategy. Barracuda ArchiveOne version 7.0 builds on C2C's award-winning information management platform and is the first new product release since Barracuda acquired C2C.

Simplified eDiscovery and Information Management
For corporate counsels and paralegals from commercial, governmental and educational disciplines, C2C developed the Advanced Discovery application. By using familiar legal terminology and reducing the need to understand complex IT environments, legal teams are able to be more responsive in early case assessment (ECA).

"Previously the IT department was tasked with discovery requests because only they knew where data resided and how to find it," said Rod Mathews, GM Storage, Barracuda. "Our ArchiveOne platform changes this by enabling business owners such as legal and HR departments to perform their own queries. As a result, eDiscovery is simplified, better results can be obtained, and costs can be reduced - all while freeing up IT to handle other mission-critical tasks within the data center."

Information management is not new to the IT industry, but previously it was positioned for large enterprises with substantial budgets and expansive IT staffs. Utilizing the power of ArchiveOne and the new Advanced Discovery application, Barracuda provides cost-effective information management to the midmarket.

ArchiveOne version 7.0 and Advanced Discovery highlights:


    --  Discovery for the corporate legal user: Enables business users to be
        able to identify and manage eDiscovery using familiar terminology via
        intuitive web-based interfaces. For example, corporate legal teams can
        search and collect data based on keywords and custodians.
    --  Simplifying business processes: Allows users to manage data in context
        of business need and search for data without the involvement of IT.
        eDiscovery is one example of processes where organizations need to
        manage data according to a defined process.
    --  Web-based access - any time, anywhere: Permits IT business partners and
        empowered knowledge workers with appropriate permissions to use the
        web-based application from any browser, without any special client or
        additional software. This access makes finding the right information and
        properly managing it simpler for organizations with constrained IT
        resources.

Pricing and Availability
Barracuda ArchiveOne version 7.0 with Advanced Discovery is available immediately, with U.S. list pricing starting at $63 USD per user. International pricing and availability vary by region.
