IT Security Auditors

When it's time for a corporate security audit, external, third-party auditors perform an important function, providing both expertise and objectivity. But auditing is a time-consuming and painstaking task. To make the process more efficient and to ensure an accurate result, auditors and their customers need automated tools that can quickly assess the current network security posture and generate clear, concise reports along with strategies to mitigate threats.

The Challenge for Independent IT Security Auditors

Security audits are becoming a standard part of the corporate IT landscape. As concerns over network security grow, more organizations are required to perform regular audits and demonstrate compliance with corporate, regulatory and industry standards. Yet firewalls are some of the most complex devices in the IT landscape, and the configuration of firewall policies is constantly changing.

For independent auditors, locating and analyzing all of the relevant content is a lengthy project involving a great deal of painstaking manual labor.  Auditors need automated solutions that can rapidly process vast amounts of information and quickly pinpoint areas that need to be addressed. As the landscape grows more competitive, auditors also need to stand out from the crowd with unique, value-added services.
