Barracuda XDR Release Notes — June 2023
The Barracuda XDR June release includes:
Customer Support – XDR users can now contact Customer Support for security or technical support. For more information, see Contacting the XDR SOC team.
More Customization for Reports – We've expanded the customization available in the Build Your Own Report feature. This helps users tailor reports to what is most meaningful/relevant and helps users communicate the value that XDR brings to stakeholders. The added Managed Endpoint components are:
Endpoint Devices: Featured Count
Endpoint Devices: List
Endpoint Devices: Top Counts
Enhanced M365 Impossible Travel Rule – This rule calculates the distance and speed for every pair of user logins to determine if the distance change is feasible. If triggered, this could indicate a compromised account or other malicious activity. This improved detection includes more data to eliminate false positives.
VPN Enrichment – XDR will take into account when over 85 commercial VPNs are being used, in order to identify threats better and eliminate false positives.
"Live Attack" intel – We've created a honeypot to gather live attack threat intelligence. This information helps XDR stay on top of the ever-evolving threat landscape, turning defense traps into valuable intelligence.
Updated terminology – We've updated the terminology in the Managed Endpoint Security (See Intelligence > Endpoint Security.) from "Threat Events" to "Threats". This ensures consistent terminology across the XDR Dashboard:
Events: Raw data being analyzed
Threats: Potential risks found in Managed Endpoint Security
Alarms: Potential risks found with other XDR products
Alerts: Potential risks found that have been escalated to the partner/customer
