Security Lifecycle Management Market Leader Extends its
Flagship Product to Include Configuration Change Management
Workflows, Adds Support for Juniper Networks M and MX-Series
Routers
October 18, 2011 - Tufin Technologies, the
market-leading provider of Security Lifecycle Management solutions,
today announced that SecureTrack™, its flagship firewall operations
management solution, now includes configuration change management
and automation component, called SecureChange™ Basic. SecureChange
Basic is based on Tufin SecureChange, a robust security change
automation solution designed specifically for network security
devices. SecureChange manages the entire lifecycle of a
configuration change request, from submission through design, risk
analysis, approval, implementation and auditing. SecureChange Basic
provides out-of-the-box, easy and intuitive configuration change
workflows, enabling Tufin's 800+ customers to quickly automate
complex change management processes for firewalls, switches and
routers without any additional capital investment.
Tufin is also announcing support for Juniper Networks M and
MX-Series routers, further extending the benefits of Security
Lifecycle Management to an ever widening set of mission critical
network infrastructure.
"Automating change management is a natural next step for
organizations that are already realizing the benefits of firewall
management and auditing tools," said Jim Frey of Enterprise
Management Associates. "Good change management can solve a host of
issues, such as reducing the incidence of misconfigurations, while
making it possible to effectively implement end-to-end auditing of
the entire change lifecycle and improving efficiency via faster and
more accurate ticket closure rates. Keys to success are features
that facilitate the change management process, such as built-in
workflows, and a tight integration between change management and
auditing/monitoring products - precisely what Tufin has addressed
with its combination of SecureChange and SecureTrack."
Tufin customers are able to immediately take advantage of
SecureChange Basic's ability to proactively manage risk, streamline
operations, and improve IT governance. Customers that require
unlimited, fully customizable workflows can purchase a license for
SecureChange.
"The firewall management and auditing space is constantly
evolving and security change automation is one of the areas where
we see rapid growth and interest," said Shaul Efraim, Vice
President of Marketing and Business Development, Tufin
Technologies. "Our customers are looking to automate configuration
change processes, streamline operations and prevent downtime or
security risks caused by erroneous or overlooked policy changes.
SecureChange Basic allows our customers to quickly realize the
strong Return on Investment that comes with automating manual,
error-prone and repetitive configuration change processes."
As a long time Juniper Networks J-Partner, Tufin already
supports multiple product lines and has extended its award-winning
automation to the popular M and MX-Series routers. The ability to
automate and optimize policy management at the critical network
junctures where these devices are deployed will enable network
administrators to much more proactively and strategically manage
network security operations.
SecureChange Basic and support for Juniper M and MX-Series
routers are Generally Available immediately.
