Security Lifecycle Management Leader Named an  Emerging Vendor in the Security Space by CRN.com, 2011 Computing Security Awards Finalist in Multiple Categories

Tufin Technologies, the leading provider of Security Lifecycle Management solutions, today announced that following on the heels of a five-star rating and "Best Buy" designation for Tufin Security Suite 5.3 from SC Magazine, it has received additional industry honors from CRN.com and Secure Computing and Network Computing UK. For the third time in three years, CRN.com has named Tufin an Emerging Vendor in the Security Space, and for the second year in a row, Tufin has been named a finalist across multiple categories in Computing Security and Network Computing UK's 2011 Computing Security Awards. Last year, it won a Computing Security Award for "Best Bench Tested Solution of the Year," selected by the magazine's editorial staff, out of the group of solutions that underwent rigorous product testing by Computing Security and Network Computing reviewers over the course of year.

"We believe these honors validate the Return on Investment associated with our solutions, which not only cut the time and cost of firewall audits by an average of 50%, but help our customers to tighten security, better manage the overwhelming complexity of their networks, meet internal and regulatory compliance mandates and minimize IT risk," said Ruvi Kitov, CEO, Tufin. "We work hard to deliver quantifiable value to our customers and partners and are deeply grateful for the ongoing recognition we have received from such highly respected industry publications."

CRN.com delivers strategic information and useful business tools that Solution Providers and other Channel professionals use everyday. According to CRN.com, each Emerging Vendor "…brings something different to the table, and each has a fresh perspective. They represent new partnership and go-to-market opportunities for solution providers looking to separate the wheat from the chaff in an IT market that is becoming increasingly more crowded and noisy."

Presented annually, the Secure Computing Awards have been set up to recognize the hardware, software and services - and the companies behind them, which have most impressed the readers of the UK's longest established computer networking publication. Tufin has made the finalist stage in two categories - Enterprise Solution of the Year and Contribution to IT Security. The awards ceremony takes place on November 3rd at the Grand Connaught Rooms in London.

These prestigious honors are the latest in a series of accolades Tufin has received throughout 2011. In July 2011, Tufin was named a winner of the 2011 Best Deployment Scenario Awards in the Security Lifecycle Management category from InfoSecurity Products Guide, the industry's leading information security research and advisory guide. In June 2011, Tufin received SC Magazine's "Best Buy" designation and an overall five-star rating in the publication's annual Policy Management Group Test. In April 2011, Tufin won the Network Computing Award for 'Network Project of the Year' for its deployment at Virgin Media, the UK's largest media company.
