Today, organizations must manage resource shortages, a rapidly changing environment, growing expansion into the cloud, and the high levels of uncertainty brought on by a widening attack surface.
Security teams need to deliver the same visibility and management capabilities across on-premise, cloud, and hybrid networks. Users demand reliable connectivity and an excellent experience, regardless of how their applications and services are accessed. Security controls need to be delivered the same way – from a single platform and interface, making policies consistent and actions efficient.
Tufin is the leading network security policy management platform for large, enterprise-scale hybrid-cloud networks. Tufin provides a modern tool to manage the entire network – cloud, on-premise and everything in between – easily and succinctly. It centralizes network access management and delivers continuous compliance automation. The solution’s unique ability to see and design network communications routes from internal networks to multiple cloud environments – as well as deploy any access changes – bridges security and process gaps between network and cloud security teams. In fact, in a recent Forrester Total Economic Impact report, customers reported a 94% reduction in the effort needed to analyze and implement network changes.
Key Capabilities / Features
Tufin Orchestration Suite (TOS) R24-1 enhances customers’ ability to manage cloud security controls from a centralized interface, making security policy management more effective.

How we are different
Enterprises need powerful tools that can bring together network and cloud security protections in a way that is easy and intuitive to operate, automating as many manual processes as possible to increase efficiency. Over 2,900 customers already trust Tufin’s vendor-agnostic solution to implement accurate network changes in minutes instead of days, accelerate secure application deployments, and virtually eliminate manual tasks.
By consolidating on-premise and cloud network security policy management into a single solution, businesses are able to deliver revenue-generating applications faster, reduce SLAs, improve response times and free up highly skilled resources. In fact, according to a recent Forrester TEI study, Tufin customers saw a return on investment within 6 months, and an overall ROI of 144%.
Tufin’s visibility, scale, and automation surpasses its competitors. Tufin’s topology mapping is more comprehensive, which means compliance reporting is more accurate, and automated workflows are more advanced and comprehensive. Furthermore, Tufin currently has customers tracking policy compliance and automating across networks comprising more than 10,000 network devices and 200M+ routes. The company’s competitors are unable to scale to this extent.
