15% of survey respondents never audit their firewalls; 30% never test configuration changes before implementation; 93.6% of all firewall change requests application-related

Ramat Gan, Israel and RSA Conference 2013, San Francisco, CA: Tufin Technologies, the market-leading provider of Security Policy Management solutions, has announced the results of its annual Firewall Management Survey. 200 network security professionals reported that 93.6 percent of all firewall change requests are application-related, validating that the function of firewalls has evolved to include secure application connectivity, in addition to their traditional role of perimeter security. Tufin has addressed this shift with the 2012 launch of SecureApp to the Tufin Security Suite (TSS), its award winning Security Policy Management solution. In a separate announcement, also issued today, Tufin announced a new release of TSS, version R13-1.
