Tripwire for Servers is a great choice for small to medium-size IT organisations. Able to detect and pinpoint changes to system and configuration files, Tripwire for Servers enables IT staff to determine what changed, when it changed, how it changed, who changed it - and to roll servers back to a known and trusted state if the change was not authorised or desired. Customers that deploy Tripwire for Servers today have the option of migrating to Tripwire Enterprise if their infrastructure requirements change in scope and size.
With Tripwire for Servers you are able to:
- Manage thousands of Tripwire for Servers installations using Tripwire Manager, a centralised management console
- Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), a security protocol which provides authentication and data encryption protection for each communication link between Tripwire Manager and Tripwire-equipped servers
- Access and export (in HTML and XML) color-coded reports for easy viewing and identifying critical integrity violations
- Define and create a "golden build" (a known, good server state) and use Tripwire Manager to distribute it to any number of machines and compare against this build
- Create or edit policy files and distribute them across the network in minutes
- Take advantage of multi-vendor support (most standard enterprise platforms) for monitoring and detecting change in all critical operating environments
Verify Compliance, Increase Availability, and Enhance Security
Tripwire for Servers is a server-specific solution for all three of these top priority IT challenges.
1. Compliance.
By creating an audit trail, validating internal processes, and closing the loop on change management, Tripwire for Servers ensures compliance to internal IT policies and external governance regulations. With growing audit requirements impacting both business and governmental bodies, Tripwire for Servers can minimise the disruptions and costs you can incur during audit preparation and on-going compliance reporting and disclosure cycles.
2. Availability.
Tripwire for Servers detects and alerts you to server file and directory changes - whether from external intrusion, malicious tampering, or accident, and enables rapid system comparison to ensure that new software or patches have rolled out properly. Rapid discovery of changes results in reduced troubleshooting and recovery times, minimising their impact and maximising service levels. As a result, Tripwire for Servers improves operational stability and system availability.
3. Security.
In addition to ensuring systems are in a known and trusted state, Tripwire for Servers can assess system damage after an attack or internal misconfiguration, reporting files that need to be repaired or replaced and ranking violations by relative severity. Reports can also be used for forensic purposes to compile evidence and track down intruders. Tripwire software can also be used to verify the integrity of security products across the enterprise, thereby "guarding the guards."
