What is SecureTrack Reporting Essentials?

Overview

SecureTrack Reporting Essentials (STRE) is a Tufin extension (formerly Tufin Marketplace app) that generates operational reports based on SecureTrack data in a format that is easily read and understood. Reports can be either vendor-agnostic or vendor-specific.

You can use STRE reports to:

• Detect unauthorized policy changes or device configurations that violate the corporate security policy

• Detect connectivity interruptions

• Detect which rules are impacting traffic

• Summarize changes to rules and objects between revisions

• Summarize current policies and compare them to global standards, such as PCI and ISO

• Assess severity of violations against Unified Security Policies (USP)

• Discover redundant rules

• Determine the compliance of a device's configuration

Why do I Need STRE?

Automation capabilities built into STRE eliminate the need to create reports manually (although this feature is also supported), and allow you to align the timing of the report output distribution to when it is required. This also allow you to distribute reports automatically before reoccurring meetings, and enable participants to come better prepared.
