Case Study: Slovak Telekom achieves 80% faster change implementation, stronger security and ISO 27001/GDPR compliance with Tufin

Solving Security Challenges With Automation to Reduce Risk and Increase Efficiency Across the Hybrid Network

Slovak Telekom, the largest multimedia operator in Slovakia, faced a sprawling, multi-vendor firewall environment and a push to adopt cloud and DevOps practices while meeting ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance. Manual, spreadsheet-driven change processes and a large migration to Next Generation Firewalls threatened visibility and control, so after consulting with Dimension Data they selected Tufin — deploying the Tufin Orchestration Suite (including Tufin SecureTrack and Tufin SecureChange) to centralize network security policy management.

Tufin implemented a phased rollout that brought dozens of firewalls under management within weeks, trained technicians to use the platform directly, and automated change workflows and rule recertification. The deployment cut change implementation time from about one week to 1–2 days, increased the rate of change implementation by roughly 80%, enabled ~200 requests per month with ~80% of technicians using the system daily, automated expired-rule processing, validated NGFW migration, and simplified ISO 27001/GDPR audit compliance.
