Tufin Technologies Launches the Tufin Open Platform (TOP)
April 2009 by Marc Jacob
Tufin Technologies announced the launch of the Tufin Open Platform (TOP) alliance. TOP is both an industry-wide alliance of leading security and networking vendors and an open, multi-vendor Security Lifecycle Management platform purpose-built to enable streamlined, policy-driven network and security management.
Already providing deep integration with leading firewall vendors such as Check Point, Juniper, Cisco and Fortinet, Tufin has launched TOP with new partners F5 and Blue Coat to extend its policy management and auditing to application security and delivery network systems and devices to enable joint customers to better manage day-to-day operations of today’s complex, intertwined, dynamic networks.
Introducing the Tufin Open Platform
Eliminating the complexity and potential errors stemming from managing multiple administration interfaces, TOP is designed to deliver centralized policy change analysis and tracking, configuration change and compliance monitoring, performance optimization and auditing across a wide variety of security and networking devices.
Tufin has released the TOP Software Development Kit (SDK) that enables technology partners to easily integrate a wide range of network devices with its SecureTrack and SecureChange Workflow solutions. The TOP SDK provides all of the information needed to develop plug-ins quickly and easily. All plug-ins that are part of the Tufin environment are non-intrusive for the security device and automatically implement the configuration retrieval logic for TOP partner devices.
The TOP Alliance Program provides technology partners and third party professionals with the Tufin SDK, plug-in development, participation in TOP forums, events and roadmap development.
