Case Study: Unit4 achieves secure Azure public-cloud migration and GDPR compliance with Barracuda Networks' CloudGen Firewall

Barracuda Helps Unit4 with GDPR Compliance While Delivering Critical Applications Securely via Microsoft Azure

Unit4, a global provider of ERP and enterprise applications, moved from company-owned data centers to Microsoft Azure to reduce costs and increase agility. The cloud migration presented security and compliance challenges: protecting large volumes of sensitive customer data under the cloud shared-responsibility model, meeting a 99.8% uptime SLA, and ensuring PCI-DSS and GDPR compliance while maintaining visibility and control across all network layers.

Unit4 selected Barracuda CloudGen Firewall for its tight Azure integration, intuitive management and multi-region high-availability deployment. The solution met compliance requirements, simplified rule creation and operations, delivered immediate cost and administrative savings, prevented service interruptions, and strengthened Unit4’s secure application delivery—providing both regulatory confidence and competitive differentiation.
