Case Study: The Giumarra Companies achieves robust Microsoft 365 email security and cloud backup with Barracuda Networks

From gateway to cloud service to multi-layer protection, Giumarra chooses Barracuda

The Giumarra Companies, a Los Angeles–based produce distributor with about 200 employees, was moving from an on‑prem Postfix email system to a cloud‑integrated Microsoft 365 environment. During that transition they needed to maintain best‑in‑class email security, protect growing Microsoft 365 data, and ensure secure access for remote workers.

Giumarra upgraded incrementally from Barracuda Email Security Gateway to Barracuda Email Protection—adding Email Gateway Defense, Incident Response for automated threat hunting/remediation, and Barracuda Cloud‑to‑Cloud Backup—building on earlier use of Barracuda Web Security Gateway. The result: ongoing protection against advanced email threats, fast incident detection and cleanup, granular backup and restore for Exchange Online/Teams/SharePoint/OneDrive, secure remote access, and unified management via a single admin console with trusted vendor support.
