"I don't know what would have happened when Sarbanes-Oxley requirements were first initiated, without Tripwire."

Assuring compliance is a top priority among IT departments. Today's strict regulatory compliance climate demands complete accountability for information, system and process integrity. A 2007 Gartner report points the way, noting that "IT organizations have a need to solve configuration audit issues" in order to meet regulations and fully automate the compliance report process. They recommend developing sound configuration management processes and incorporating configuration auditing technology.
You can dramatically reduce the work it takes to achieve compliance with Tripwire, the recognized leader in configuration audit and control.
Tripwire makes IT compliance easier throughout the data center by providing:
- Out-of-the-box change auditing and configuration assessment capabilities for the data center.
- A single point of configuration control for analyzing and demonstrating the effectiveness of IT controls.
- Compliance assessment policies designed by industry experts for business-critical systems. Our compliance assessments assess all configuration settings across the data center and determine the degree of risk for security and compliance vulnerabilities. They offer proof of accountability by independently verifying IT infrastructure and process integrity.
- Automated reporting that consolidates and documents all changes in a single verifiable audit trail. Because every change introduces the potential for vulnerability, Tripwire automates the testing and reporting of changes, providing support for any regulation or industry standard.
- Reconciliation capabilities that save time, reduce manual processes, and enable you to maintain continuous compliance and reduce risk.
Ensure ongoing regulatory compliance, pass audits, and avoid the potential losses in legal fees, penalties and brand reputation from security breaches. Use Tripwire's configuration audit and control capabilities in your data center.
