Overview

Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service Isolated Mode ensures your traffic runs through isolated infrastructure, without traffic from any other organizations. This provides the following benefits:

• The option to use a Dedicated IP address with all deployments, not shared with any other organizations.

• The option to use a Fixed IP address with legacy deployment locations.

• The ability to accept traffic on any domain, rather than only for the domains you specify.

• The ability to configure, with assistance from Barracuda Networks Technical Support, features that are not accessible in the Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service user interface, but are supported by the Barracuda Web Application Firewall.

Isolated Mode Eligibility

To be eligible for legacy Isolated Mode, you must:

• Purchase 100 Mbps bandwidth or more.

• Purchase a Barracuda Networks Premium Support subscription.

• Deploy your applications in any Microsoft Azure region other than the region titled North America and West Europe (Legacy). For more information, see Understanding Deployment Locations.

If you have purchased less than 100 Mbps of bandwidth, or have not purchased a Premium Support subscription, contact your Barracuda Networks partner or sales representative for information on how to upgrade your account. You will only pay the difference in price for the remainder of your license term.

Isolated Mode Features

Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service and the Barracuda Web Application Firewall use the same underlying protection engine, so features supported by the Barracuda Web Application Firewall can be supported in Legacy Isolated Mode within Barracuda WAF-as-a-Service. Here are a few commonly used features, along with links to Barracuda Campus documentation, where you can read about the full functionality of each feature:

• Importing vulnerability reports from over 30 scanners and applying virtual patches – Refer to Mitigating Website Vulnerabilities Using Vulnerability Scanners

• Customizable notifications for specific events via email or Slack – Refer to Events and Notifications

• Import JSON configuration from a Barracuda Web Application Firewall - Backing Up and Restoring the JSON Configuration File

• Customizing Smart Signatures and adding Custom Attack Patterns.
