For the financial services industry, GLBA responds to the implications of online banking, e-commerce, electronic records, and the need to secure customer records. GLBA requires banks to protect customer privacy and prove compliance. As a result, system integrity and intrusion detection, coupled with a way to quickly remedy compromises, form the foundation of a bank's IT compliance policies and procedures. Tripwire configuration auditing solutions provide proven capabilities for meeting GLBA intrusion detection and remediation requirements.

An Ironclad Defense: Detective Control

Tripwire provides what auditors call a detective control. It delivers the hard evidence of IT configuration audit and control that auditors want. Tripwire gives you:

• Automated configuration control that isn't susceptible to human error or lapses in judgment
• Broad infrastructure coverage of changes on servers, workstations and network devices, including changes made both manually or by automated tools
• Independent evidence of change through perfect segregation of duties - the person or tool that made the change is not used to validate the change
