Virtualized Secure Access Controller deployed in AWS that aggregates Secure Connector VPN tunnels from branches, IoT, and micro-networks with full IPS, AV, and ATP inspection.

Barracuda Secure Access Controller for AWS is the cloud-based VPN concentrator for Barracuda Secure Connectors, terminating TINA VPN tunnels from distributed branches, IoT devices, and micro-networks with integrated IPS, AV, and ATP inspection at scale.

Top Features

AWS-native Secure Access Controller

Deploy the Secure Access Controller directly in AWS as a virtual CloudGen Firewall image, terminating TINA VPN tunnels from Secure Connectors without on-premises hardware.

Integrated security inspection

Every VPN session passes through IPS, application control, URL filtering, antivirus scanning, and Advanced Threat Protection on the Access Controller, enforcing corporate security policy.

Centralized multi-site management

Firewall Control Center manages every Secure Access Controller and connected Secure Connector from one console, with template-driven configuration and firmware updates.

Beyond licensing, a seamless, fully supported Barracuda Secure Access Controller for AWS experience with Discreet Vision.

Why Your Business Needs Barracuda Secure Access Controller for AWS

Secure Access Controller isn't just a VPN endpoint, it's a complete cloud-based aggregator for Secure Connectors bringing enterprise security inspection and central management to every branch and IoT device.

Aggregate Thousands of Connectors: A single Secure Access Controller in AWS terminates TINA VPN tunnels from hundreds or thousands of Barracuda Secure Connectors across branches and IoT micro-networks.

Full Security Inspection at Endpoint: Traffic from every connected branch and IoT device flows through IPS, application control, URL filtering, antivirus, and Advanced Threat Protection before reaching AWS.

Proprietary TINA VPN Protocol: Barracuda’s high-performance TINA VPN delivers faster, more reliable site-to-site and device-to-cloud connectivity than standard IPsec, with failover and multi-link aggregation.

Unified Management at Scale: Every SAC and connected Secure Connector is managed centrally through Firewall Control Center, with template-driven configuration, firmware updates, and real-time status.

Built for how modern teams connect distributed edges to AWS.

Everything your business needs to aggregate remote Secure Connectors into AWS, delivered in one virtualized platform covering TINA VPN termination, integrated security inspection, IoT and micro-network connectivity, HA clustering, and centralized Control Center management.

AWS-Native Deployment

Secure Access Controller for AWS is available as a virtual CloudGen Firewall image in the AWS Marketplace, deploying directly into your VPC to terminate Secure Connector VPN tunnels and route traffic to backend subnets. The SAC connects natively to AWS backend subnets, eliminating the need for additional routing infrastructure between VPN endpoints and cloud workloads. Sizing options from ACC400 to ACC820 match capacity to the number of protected IPs and concurrent Secure Connectors.

TINA VPN Aggregation

Barracuda’s proprietary TINA (Transport Independent Network Architecture) VPN protocol provides high-performance, reliable site-to-site and device-to-cloud connectivity that outperforms standard IPsec for distributed deployments. TINA supports multi-link bandwidth aggregation, transparent failover across WAN connections, and roaming support for mobile endpoints. Every Secure Connector terminates its TINA tunnel on the SAC, with management traffic forwarded to the Control Center for policy enforcement.

Integrated Security Inspection

The Secure Access Controller acts as a complete security inspection point for every VPN session, not just a dumb VPN concentrator. Corporate security policies including IPS, application control, URL filtering, virus scanning, and Advanced Threat Protection are enforced directly on the SAC or forwarded to a border firewall for centralized processing. This keeps IoT devices, branch endpoints, and remote micro-networks under full corporate security policy even when connecting to cloud workloads.

Secure Connector Scalability

One SAC aggregates VPN tunnels from hundreds or thousands of Barracuda Secure Connectors deployed at branch offices, retail locations, industrial sites, and IoT micro-networks. Secure Connectors are small, purpose-built hardware appliances that connect remote devices via TINA VPN with minimal configuration. High-availability clustering lets you deploy SACs in active-active pairs for production continuity, and multiple SACs can be deployed globally to serve regional branches with low latency.

Centralized Management

Every SAC and its connected Secure Connectors are managed through Barracuda Firewall Control Center, which provides template-driven configuration, firmware updates, and real-time status monitoring for the entire distributed fleet. The Control Center handles life-cycle management for hundreds or thousands of connected devices from a single console, with multi-tenancy, multi-administrator support, and Revision Control System (RCS) tracking every configuration change across the deployment.
