Tufinnovate 2025: How Modern Security Teams Are Tackling Complexity at Scale.

From AI to security policy automation, Tufinnovate 2025 demonstrates how today’s most advanced teams are adapting to complexity across hybrid networks.

Each year, Tufinnovate brings together customers, prospects, and partners to explore what’s next in network security. It’s where the Tufin community comes for expert insight, practical guidance, and an early look at how the platform is evolving.

This year’s event highlights key innovations shaping the future of policy management, including Tufin’s AI capabilities, the Open Policy Model (OPM) for any-device support, and expanded policy control across SASE, Zero Trust, firewalls, and micro-segmented environments as part of a unified and scalable framework.

Underscoring the entire event is a simple reality: security teams are being asked to manage more across more technologies, vendors, and environments than ever before. This year’s conversations focused on practical ways to simplify policy, apply automation, and leverage AI to reduce manual effort and give teams the clarity and confidence they need to stay secure.

A Fireside Chat on AI, Policy, and the Future of Network Security

Tufinnovate 2025 opened with a keynote panel featuring senior leaders from Wiz, Zscaler, and Tufin: Oron Noah, VP of Product, Extensibility and Partnerships at Wiz; Sam Curry, Global VP and CISO at Zscaler; and Shay Dayan, SVP of Products and Engineering at Tufin. 

The conversation takes on the big shifts happening across security, with one topic front and center–the use of AI. The panel talks about how teams are already using AI to reduce repetitive work, get answers faster, and make smarter decisions under pressure. They also make it clear that success with AI depends on structure. Guardrails, context, and sound judgment still matter.

Throughout the session, there’s a strong focus on access. Security can’t sit in a silo. Developers, architects, and operations teams all need better visibility into policy and risk. The discussion points to a future where guidance is available on demand and built directly into daily workflows.

Policy is a core system that helps teams align, adapt, and move forward with confidence. It needs to be measurable, flexible, and built to support fast decisions in real time.

Key topics include:

• How AI is reshaping both attack surfaces and operations
• The need to make policy knowledge accessible across roles
• Managing consistency across cloud, on-prem, and SASE environments
• Operational risks that increase as infrastructure becomes harder to track

Inside the Innovation Lab: Real Problems, Practical Solutions

Tufin Innovation Lab sessions take a closer look at how customers are using Tufin to solve real-world challenges across hybrid environments. Each session focuses on a specific capability and shows how teams apply it to improve speed, visibility, and control.

TufinMate AI-Powered Policy Guidance
TufinMate gives teams a faster way to get answers to policy questions using natural language. It supports IT, SOC, and NetSec engineers with platform-aware responses that help reduce wait time and improve consistency across workflows.

Exposure-Aware Vulnerability Management
In a joint session with Palo Alto Networks Cortex Xpanse, Tufin demonstrates how network context helps teams prioritize vulnerabilities and focus on what matters most — especially when exposed assets are involved.

Unified Policy Across Hybrid Environments
As environments become more distributed, policy enforcement gets harder to manage. This session shows how Unified Security Policy (USP) models help define, visualize, and control traffic across cloud, on-prem, and SASE zones.

Expanded Platform Coverage with OPM
Tufin’s Open Policy Model (OPM) supports integration with a broader range of vendor technologies. The session walks through how teams use OPM to bring devices like Aruba and Versa into their policy and change workflows.

Dynamic Topology Mapping
TOS Discovery helps teams keep their network topology current with automated SNMP-based discovery and grouping. This supports better access reviews, cleaner audits, and faster path analysis across large-scale environments.

Transitioning from Skybox

This session focuses on how former Skybox customers migrate to Tufin using Express Path, a guided program designed to make the transition faster and more predictable. The team outlines how Skybox modules and use cases map directly to Tufin’s platform, and walks through the steps organizations take to move their data and workflows over.

The process includes a structured onboarding plan led by Tufin’s professional services team, migration tooling for importing devices and rulebases, and job aids designed to support different user roles across the organization.

The goal is not just to replace one platform with another. Express Path helps teams consolidate, modernize, and reach long-term operational maturity with tools that are built for scale.

Looking Ahead: What’s Next for the Tufin Orchestration Suite

The final session gives a preview of Tufin’s 2025 roadmap, with a focus on automation, scalability, and support for hybrid environments. The team highlights upcoming enhancements to Unified Security Policy and SecureChange workflows, broader support for cloud-native and edge architectures, and continued expansion of third-party integrations.

They also walk through new capabilities introduced in TOS R25-1, including native support for Zscaler environments.

The session reinforces Tufin’s focus on helping customers simplify network security operations and maintain control as their environments grow.

Final Takeaways

Tufinnovate 2025 brings together the ideas, tools, and people shaping the future of network security. Across keynotes, technical sessions, and live demos, the event shows how teams are tackling complexity with practical solutions built for scale.

From policy automation and unified visibility to real-world strategies for staying ahead of risk, every session offers something teams can use. The conversations are sharp, the use cases are real, and the focus stays on what it takes to move faster with confidence.
