Reuven Harrison CTO Tufin Technologies

Tufin the market-leading provider of Security Policy Orchestration solutions, has announced a new version of its award winning Tufin Orchestration Suite. This new version extends Tufin’s Unified Security Policy into SecureChange, its Network Change Automation platform, bringing best of breed management, visibility and automation to enterprise network security policies. Tufin's Unified Security Policy gives security managers an automated, policy-centric approach to maintain tight control over network segmentation during the network change process.  Version R14-2 includes central violation and exception management resulting in comprehensive auditability and reduced network exposure, delivering much-needed automation for controlling an organization’s desired segmentation during the network change process.

“In today’s threat landscape, proper network segmentation is more important than ever but the amount of change that occurs within most organizations makes it impossible to maintain with any degree of assurance,” said Jon Oltsik, Senior Principal Analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. “By automating change processes for network segmentation, Tufin has sent a clear message to CISOs that even in highly complex environments, intelligent automation makes it possible to have strong security without sacrificing business agility.”

Introduced within SecureTrack in February 2014, Tufin’s Unified Security Policy eases the burden of managing complex and dynamic network segmentation policies, a best practice known to be critical in limiting the impact of security breaches. Delivering in-depth information about zone-to-zone traffic and policy restrictions, it already enables Tufin customers to map out and manage their desired network security architecture.  Integration with SecureChange® enables Tufin customers to automate network segmentation-related policy changes in a controlled fashion, while maintaining the levels of agility and confidence that have become synonymous with the Tufin Orchestration Suite.

In addition, the Tufin Orchestration Suite now supports Palo Alto Networks’ Panorama management console, dramatically streamlining firewall audits and simplifying daily operations for Palo Alto Networks environments, and has extended support for Cisco CSM, using Cisco's new CSM API to provide advanced policy automation capabilities

Earlier this month, Tufin received in its fifth, five-star review from SC Magazine, which named it  ‘Pick of the Litter” over 21 other Policy and Risk Management solutions for the second year in a row.  

 “In order to support the business, security teams often need to grant policy exceptions that impact network segmentation, but because they were managed manually, they often caused more problems than they solved.  Now, our customers can easily allow and manage exceptions over time in a secure, complaint fashion,” said Reuven Harrison, CTO, Tufin. “By eliminating the complexity associated with managing network segmentation, our customers can automate best practices for network architecture into their daily operations, without losing control of the process.” 

Tufin will be attending the Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in National Harbor, MD, from June 23-26.  Please stop by booth #734 in Prince George's Hall for a demo or more information on the Tufin Orchestration Suite.

Pricing and Availability:

The latest version of the Tufin Orchestration Suite is available immediately.  Pricing starts at $21,500 for SecureTrack and $45,000 for the full suite.
