Case Study: Lindsay Australia achieves automated blocking of 14,500 email threats and 22% reduction in network/storage use with Barracuda Networks

Lindsay Australia, a leader in integrated transport and logistics, enters new era of email protection with Barracuda

Lindsay Australia, a listed leader in integrated transport, logistics and rural supply with about 1,400 employees across 36 sites, faced a mounting email-security crisis: handling 300,000–450,000 inbound messages monthly, its legacy filters were overwhelmed, required manual inspection, offered poor threat visibility, consumed bandwidth with double-filtering and on‑premises archiving, and left staff exposed to increasing spam and targeted attacks.

The company replaced its fragmented setup with Barracuda Email Protection under a single subscription—adding gateway defense, impersonation and link protection, cloud archiving and security awareness training. Deployment took about 1.5 days with a sub-five-minute switchover and zero downtime. In the first month Barracuda scanned ~400,000 emails, automatically removed 14,500 threats, and reduced network traffic and storage use by 22%, while improving incident visibility and employee cyber training.
