Tufin Technologies Announces General Availability of SecureChange …
RAMAT GAN, ISRAEL -
Tufin Technologies, the leading provider
of Security Lifecycle Management solutions, today announced the general
release of SecureChange™ Workflow as part of the Tufin Security Suite.
First announced in May 2008, SecureChange Workflow is already improving
security operations for several companies managing hundreds of network
devices. Tufin's breakthrough new product enables companies to automate
the entire network security policy change management lifecycle. With
SecureChange Workflow, IT managers can proactively enforce security
policies while increasing operational efficiency and ensuring compliance
with regulations such as PCI DSS.
"I frequently see large enterprises using spreadsheets or home grown tools
to track firewall rule changes," said Greg Young, Research Vice president
for Gartner, Inc. "This is a highly error prone process and wasteful of
highly trained resources who should instead be spending their time watching
for attacks or tuning the firewall."
SecureChange Workflow, a companion product to SecureTrack™, Tufin's leading
firewall operations management product, is the first solution that actively
manages the entire lifecycle of network security policy change requests.
From a change request by a business user, through risk analysis, business
continuity analysis, approval, implementation and auditing, SecureChange
Workflow automates each step of the process, making it ideal for any
organization managing multiple network devices such as firewalls, routers
and switches.
-- Security change automation: Automatic processing of security change
requests to simplify the user experience while making network
administrators more effective.
-- Integration with SecureTrack: Complementary functionality of
SecureChange Workflow and SecureTrack on single T-Series appliance or
server.
-- Separation of duties: Support for multiple roles within the security
change process to meet the most demanding business and regulatory
standards.
-- E-mail notifications: Real-time e-mail notification on change request
progress for every status change.
-- Pre-defined business process templates: Out-of-the box templates for
the most frequently-requested changes.
-- Customizable change-templates: Templates and workflows can be
customized easily to meet the specific requirements of every organization.
"The need for automated security policy change management, across disparate
network security systems and processes, is a business imperative," said
Reuven Harrison, CTO and Co-founder of Tufin Technologies. "Most security
teams have to deal with hundreds of end-user business requirements and lack
an effective tool to do so. SecureChange Workflow allows automated
translation of unstructured business requirements into configuration
changes. This solution is specifically designed for management of security
change requests to provide proactive risk analysis while ensuring business
continuity and compliance."
SecureChange Workflow 4.5 is available immediately. Pricing starts at
$20,000.
