CHATHAM, New Jersey, May 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Independent Research Firm and Tufin Share the Study's Methodology, Results and a Case Study in an Upcoming Webinar on May 21, 2013

Tufin Technologies, the market-leading provider of Security Policy Management solutions, today announced the availability of a new study, 'The Total Economic Impact of the Tufin Security Suite."  Tufin commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct the study, which illustrates what Forrester calls the Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) of deploying the Tufin Security Suite.  Forrester's findings are based on an extensive analysis of one of Tufin's customers, a large European financial services company.  According to the study, the organization will reap a full Return on Investment from the Tufin Security Suite in 11 months, and can expect benefits of slightly more than $3 million over a three-year period.  

"At the end of the day, the demands on today's security professional are so intense that operational automation must be added to the security equation if the overall security posture of an organization is to be improved," said Sebastian Selhorst, Project Director, Forrester Consulting, and the study's author.

Tufin and Forrester will provide an overview of the study's findings and methodology in a Webinar on May 21, 2013 at 11:00 EDT/16:00 BST.  To register for the webinar, sign up here.  Attendees will receive a first, exclusive view of the TEI report. A recording of the webinar will be available here following the event.

SIX, the company profiled in the study, provides services in the areas of securities trading, clearing, settlement, financial information, and payment transactions. The complexity of the company's firewall environment grew constantly and the organization decided to invest in Tufin's Security Suite to reduce this intricacy, gain an overview of the actual configurations, and streamline firewall administration.

"Tufin helped us achieve our three goals: to streamline our firewall administration, to increase the visibility of our firewall configurations, and to reduce the complexity of our environment," said Karl Stefan Vogt, CSO, SIX.

Tufin uses an application-oriented approach to policy management to simplify and streamline firewall operations.  It is composed of three fully integrated products:

SecureApp delivers a new approach managing the network connectivity and security requirements of applications. By separating business requirements from the underlying firewall, switch and router policies, SecureApp helps IT teams to simplify operations, accelerate service delivery, assure business continuity, and monitor compliance.

SecureChange enables companies to automate security change management and risk analysis for the network. With SecureChange, companies can automate business processes to proactively enforce security policies and support governance initiatives.

SecureTrack is a security operations management solution that automates policy management for a wide set of network infrastructure including network and next-generation firewalls, routers, switches, load balancers, and web proxies.  SecureTrack eliminates routine, manual tasks and assures security, business continuity, and continuous compliance with internal and regulatory requirements.

"As this study shows, the Tufin Security Suite can have a substantial impact on an organization's bottom line in terms productivity gains, cost savings, and faster incident management," said Ruvi Kitov, CEO, Tufin Technologies.  "We see this study as a major validation of Tufin's ability to deliver tangible business value, and we encourage anyone with an interest in improving IT Operations to download the report or attend the webinar to understand how to measure the Total Economic Impact of Security Policy Management."
