Tripwire Enterprise App for Splunk Strengthens Cyberthreat Protection

PRESS RELEASE

Portland, Ore. — October  1, 2014 Tripwire, Inc., a leading global provider of advanced threat, security and compliance solutions, today announced the availability of the Tripwire^® Enterprise App for Splunk^® Enterprise. The app makes it easy to visualize the overall health of all enterprise endpoints monitored by Tripwire Enterprise in IT environments, dramatically reducing the time needed to identify security violations on endpoints. The app also alerts users to other conditions that may indicate a security breach and correlates Tripwire data with other security data in Splunk Enterprise to create a stronger security posture.

Defending mission critical systems, data and applications against potential threats requires a deep understanding of what is and is not “normal” behavior, especially on business-critical network assets. Security teams collect large quantities of data for security intelligence, but gaining valuable insights from this data can be challenging given the data volume, variety and velocity.

“Visualization of big data analytics is the key to next generation security intelligence programs,” said Rekha Shenoy, vice president of corporate development for Tripwire. “Analytics informed by rich intelligence about asset state, context and vulnerability can automate many risk assessments and threat detection processes and this in turn significantly reduces detection and response times to threats. Dashboards that make it easy to visualize this rich data help organizations save time and resources and empowers quick, informed decision making.”

Tripwire Enterprise delivers end-to-end security configu­ration management with fully integrated solutions for policy, file integrity and remediation management. Tripwire Enterprise provides IT security professionals with real-time policy change and anomaly and threat detection, as well as the broadest support for platforms and policies available. Using Tripwire Enterprise, IT security teams can easily demonstrate that all network assets, services and applications are protected, even under the constantly changing conditions common in enterprise networks that tend to destabilize hardened security configurations.

The Tripwire Enterprise App for Splunk Enterprise enables simplified visualizations of the overall health of enterprise IT environments monitored by Tripwire Enterprise. The combination of Tripwire Enterprise with Splunk Enterprise provides context rich, real-time intelligence about network, endpoints and servers and can be visualized in a variety of easy-to-implement dashboards. Together Tripwire Enterprise and Splunk Enterprise  reduce the time required to identify and determine the scope of security violations, and to contain, remediate and recover from the incident.

"Tripwire solutions’ integration with Splunk Enterprise is the ideal solution to help meet the rapidly increasing demand for security, compliance and threat intelligence solutions,” said Leo Von Dongen, CEO of Metastore, a Tripwire value-added distributor. “The Tripwire Enterprise App for Splunk Enterprise makes it easier for Metastore’s customers to quickly identify, correct and report on the cybersecurity threats and risks that affect business critical assets.”
