Case Study: SIX streamlines application firewall management with Tufin SecureApp

SIX streamlines firewall changes with Tufin, serving 150 banks across 25 countries

SIX, a Swiss financial infrastructure provider, faced significant challenges in managing application-related firewall changes. Their manual process, centered around a Microsoft Access database, was cumbersome, resource-intensive, and prone to error, creating security risks and operational inefficiencies. They sought a resource-efficient way to document connectivity and manage changes without compromising their security policy, leading them to the vendor Tufin and its SecureApp solution.

Tufin implemented its SecureApp solution to streamline SIX's firewall management from a business process perspective. The results included dramatic increases in operational efficiency, improved communication between teams, and a cleaner, more reliable firewall policy. SIX achieved a more optimized process with reduced potential threats and greater confidence in their network security posture.
