IT Automation and Operational Efficiency
As the complexity of network security infrastructure grows, organizations are employing more and more highly skilled administrators to manage routine operations. Rather than focusing their expertise on strategic goals, administrators spend most of their time on repetitive, manual tasks in an attempt to enforce corporate policies over dozens - or hundreds - of distributed infrastructure components.
Businesses need to automate repetitive components of the security lifecycle in order to reduce the time spent on time-consuming tasks and to invest resources more effectively. With Tufin’s SecureChange™ Workflow, routine tasks are completely automated, from end user business requirements all the way to automatic verification of configuration changes. Manual analysis and auditing operations can be reduced from days to a matter of hours. Read the SecureChange Workflow ROI analysis from Frost & Sullivan
Enforcement of Corporate and Regulatory Security Policies
Companies understand the business impact of network security. As part of corporate governance initiatives, they now demand a high level of transparency and accountability. At the same time, they must comply with a variety of government, industry and regulatory security standards. As a result, companies are developing ever-more detailed and complicated security policies. Implementing them on the ground, over multiple firewalls and other infrastructural components, is a time-consuming and error-prone process.
To ensure that corporate security policies are implemented accurately and consistently, companies need to employ business process automation to manage changes to security infrastructure. More than any manual process, SecureChange Workflow can ensure separation of duties and provide a reliable degree of accountability.
Risk Management
Every change to security infrastructure involves risk. As enterprise networks grow and become more complex, organizations struggle to ensure that routine security administration does not accidentally result in downtime or even business-level disruptions.
Tufin SecureChange Workflow provides automated risk analysis procedures that proactively examine every change request in the context of both organizational security policy and current implementation realities. The Policy Change Advisor suggests the implementation that is optimal from the point of view of security and efficiency.
Seamless Integration with IT Operations
Large organizations today have already made sizeable investments in strategic IT infrastructure. When faced with new challenges - such as the one posed by security lifecycle management - they need solutions that can smoothly integrate with their existing systems. Tufin SecureChange Workflow connects rapidly to existing ticketing and helpdesk systems such as BMC Remedy to ensure rapid, trouble-free deployment. It also works as a stand-alone change automation system.
