Enacted in 2003, the National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace aims to secure the vital electronic systems that run the US. NSSC's goal is to quickly identify, diagnose, and remediate damage caused by malicious cyberspace activity at federal, state and local government, the private sector, and individual levels. Tripwire configuration audit and control solutions provide the regulatory compliance and the intrusion detection, diagnosis, and remediation capabilities demanded by today's heightened state of awareness for electronic security.

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
