LOS ANGELES – April 3, 2017 – Tufin®, a market-leading provider of Network Security Policy Orchestration solutions, will present a live session, “Controlling Your Head in the Cloud With Network Security Policy Management,” at the Data Center World conference, held in Los Angeles on April 3-6, 2017. Tufin Senior Security Engineer Ron Kehoe will help data center and IT infrastructure professionals understand how to get the most out of their cloud deployments while improving overall security posture. What: Data Center World’s theme is focused on data, automation, scale, and building and managing the data center of the future. The conference draws upon the knowledge and experience of the more than 3,500 AFCOM members, the association for advancing data center and IT infrastructure professionals, to create an end-user driven agenda that focuses on real solutions for today's key challenges. During the presentation, Tufin will dive deeper into the following pain points, trends, and questions:

  • Why firewall rules are outdated and redundant, and how this impacts the security posture of the network
  • What data center infrastructure managers face when migrating to and ensuring the security of a cloud environment
  • How network security policy management can solve security and compliance challenges data center managers encounter during cloud deployment

Why: Kehoe will explain the many benefits of network security policy management (NSPM). Gartner recently gave NSPM a ‘high’ benefit rating in its latest Hype Cycle for Infrastructure Protection. NSPM will help data center administrators better handle network security operations by automating multiple functions such as firewall policy management, complex policy change workflows, providing documentation for regulatory compliance audits, and management of multiple firewall vendors.

Who: Ron Kehoe, Senior Security Engineer at Tufin, who brings over 30 years of experience in security solutions architecture and consulting to the event.

When: Tuesday, April 4 at 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm PT, room 501A at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Learn more about Tufin’s presence at Data Center World here.
