FireMon Sets a New Standard for Security Process Automation to Drive Revenue and Reduce Network Security RiskFireMon sets the stage to help customers now achieve what they thought was not possible. Today, FireMon announces a unique approach to security process automation designed to take the traditional market for Network Security Policy Management (NSPM) solutions to the next level. As innovation drives business revenue, security leaders are forced to choose between secure practices and enabling innovation, despite potential risks. FireMon rejects the tradeoff between business priorities and protecting the organization. Customers should be able to innovate in a secure manner without sacrificing either variable. "In listening to our customers and to business leaders around the globe, we've found consistently that they struggle with protecting the brands they represent and driving revenue simultaneously. Notwithstanding, protecting customer information is equally important," said FireMon President & CEO, Satin H. Mirchandani. "At FireMon, we place security in the innovation driver's seat. Now businesses can be confident in their ability reduce security risk and achieve business agility. Just as FireMon set the standard for network security policy management in its infancy, with this fundamental change in how enterprises apply automation, we are set to help them overcome the challenges they face today and into the future." FireMon is doing things differently. FireMon is the only leading policy management construct to automation that enterprise security teams can adopt to address the most pressing business needs, including:
FireMon offers two parallel elements of enterprise security automation that map to the breadth and complexity of the network environment, while offering a path to reduce the cost of security operations and compliance:
Both elements are necessary, since standards should be automated to the greatest extent practical and should persist as the underlying netwrk evolves, and exceptions will always exist. The adoption of cloud, micro-segmentation and virtual platforms, plus demand from DevOps, are coming of age and creating powerful efficiencies. These changes will increase activity levels to a point that enterprises will be driven towards full automation but will always need a workflow-based approach for exception management. Therefore, a complete security automation solution needs to include both approaches. FireMon Automation Resources
