Barracuda Networks announced the new Barracuda Firewall X100 and X101, next-generation firewalls designed for small businesses. Barracuda also released new firmware, version 6.1, which includes configuration wizards, as well as updated security enhancements including secure remote access through an integrated SSL VPN.
