Secure Passage's FireMon solution has enabled us to successfully manage our firewall policies, ensure correct access and maintain effective security and compliance postures," said Integris Health CISO Rob Marti. "We will continue to use FireMon, its flexible architecture, scalability, automated functionality and ease of use gives us absolute confidence in our access, compliance and security strategy." "For almost two decades, organizations have relied on firewalls to control access to applications and data. Over time, changing business initiatives, increased security threats, and compliance mandates have fattened firewall rule bases, placing considerable strain on IT security teams struggling to manage firewall access policies," said Spire Security Research Director Pete Lindstrom. "IT security teams contending with high degrees of network device complexity should turn to automated policy management tools to ease their management burden, get a handle on out of control policies, and create a more efficient IT environment." "We recognized the future of this market early on and worked closely with hundreds of large global enterprises and partners to understand their requirements, and we have developed a solution that enables them to achieve compliance, be secure, and stay in business," said Secure Passage Co-Founder and CEO Gary Fish. "I believe in this market and have invested my own personal capital to fund development of FireMon and create Secure Passage as the company to deliver this solution so that large global enterprises can address these business challenges."
