Axpo Case Study

Axpo Informatik, the IT services arm of Switzerland’s leading energy supply company, used Tufin to centralise policy visibility across 29 firewalls, clean up complex rule bases, and maintain audit-ready compliance across a shared infrastructure serving 10 customers.

Axpo Group supplies electricity to over three million people daily across Switzerland. Its IT services arm, Axpo Informatik, serves 3,500 users and manages more than 500 applications, including the trading systems for Switzerland, France, Italy, and Austria. As the business grew and firewall infrastructure virtualized, maintaining 29 physical and virtual firewalls across 10 customers with just three administrators had become nearly impossible. Rule bases and object databases could not be kept consistent and secure manually.

Read the case study to see how Axpo Informatik, with Swiss system integrator Clounet, deployed Tufin SecureTrack to centralise firewall policy visibility, automate change tracking and reporting, clean up unused rules and objects, and improve both firewall performance and audit readiness across a complex shared infrastructure.
