Original Press Release:
Tufin Orchestration Suite Version R15-1 Boosts Security Controls over Heterogeneous Networks with Application-Driven Orchestration
MORRISTOWN, N.J., -- Tufin®, the market-leading provider of Security Policy Orchestration solutions, today announces a new version of its award-winning Tufin Orchestration Suite(TM). The latest release, Tufin Orchestration Suite R15-1, delivers security policy orchestration through an automated and unified approach to security policy management across heterogeneous platforms, including traditional networks, private cloud and public cloud. New features include support for Amazon AWS, an advanced security policy browser and software-defined firewall policies for managing Check Point, Cisco and Juniper security policies.
The announcement comes as enterprises are being held more accountable for cyber-threats in the wake of high-profile breaches. IT decision-makers also face other challenges such as reducing network change times and minimizing human error.
In a Gartner report "Avoid These "Dirty Dozen" Network Security Worst Practices" published in January 2015 by analysts Andrew Lerner and Jeremy D'Hoinne, they wrote: "Security projects that are owned exclusively within the security team face the risk of neglecting business and user requirements, which are too often seen as constraints. This often results in security policy being focused on the wrong goals, which can weaken overall security posture, disenfranchise end users and/or waste capex and opex." They continue: "Security leaders must not only collaborate with business leaders and embrace business requirements rather than fight against them, but also ensure that this mind-set is permeated throughout the security organization. This will ultimately lead to better buy-in from the business for security initiatives."
"Enterprise network environments are becoming harder to secure while, at the same time, the competitive pressure on enterprises is demanding greater agility and more frequent application and network changes," said Ofer Or, VP Products at Tufin. "In today's heterogeneous environments -- which span physical, virtualized and cloud infrastructure - it has become impossible to manage changes manually while still guaranteeing security and compliance. With the Tufin Orchestration Suite, companies no longer have to compromise their agility to maintain security."

--Â Amazon AWS - Tufin expands to public cloud with visibility, change tracking and reporting for Amazon virtual private clouds (VPC) and security groups.
