The Barracuda Message Archiver is an integrated hardware and software 
solution designed to archive email communications sent and received by users 
throughout your organization. The Barracuda Message Archiver automatically 
stores and indexes all email messages in real-time while making them 
immediately available for rapid searching and retrieval by authorized users.

To immediately capture new messages, the Barracuda Message Archiver can take 
advantage of the journaling feature of Microsoft Exchange and other standards-
based email servers. The Barracuda Message Archiver can also import historical 
emails and PST fi les for a complete archive.

The performance of your email server is improved by offl  oading emails to the 
Barracuda Message Archiver. By moving email attachments to the Barracuda 
Message Archiver, valuable space is freed up on the email server. The archived 
emails are still easily accessible with the client plugin, on demand, enabling 
seamless access for end users.

By searching archives and creating alerts, any e-discovery and litigation hold 
requests can be fulfi lled.  This is achieved without the integration hurdles of 
software-only solutions or security and network implications when using hosted 
services. With the sophisticated roles-based user interface and tamper resistant 
storage, an administrator can enforce internal access control to help comply with 
corporate policies and plan for regulatory compliance.  

There are no per user licensing fees with the Barracuda Message Archiver. Through single-instance storage and message compression, the 
Barracuda Message Archiver reduces your email storage costs. With the migration of historical email and management of messages stored in 
your production email environment, organizations can achieve greater operational effi  ciencies. Energize Updates keep the Barracuda Message 
Archiver up to date with the most current policy defi nitions, which include monitoring compliance regulations and updating the latest document 
fi le formats that decode content within email attachments for indexing.  Furthermore, the Barracuda Message Archiver also includes security 
updates for protection against the latest vulnerabilities and malware threats.
