True FIM—Tripwire FIM: Summary

Summary

Tripwire has the only true File Integrity Monitoring solution. All others do little more than just detect changes, whether the changes are good or bad—because they have no way of telling the difference. Tripwire FIM, with its unique ChangeIQ capabilities, provides multiple ways to determine low-risk change from high-risk change, and do so at the speed of change.

But the intelligence does not stop there. Tripwire FIM also integrates with Tripwire Log Center to form the Tripwire VIA Solution Suite. Tripwire VIA allows Changes of Interest to be correlated in context with Log Events of Interest. This enables security professionals to better protect their environment—including cardholder data—by allowing them to quickly see and trace problem-causing activities all at once, and in a way that shows how the individual activities are related and interrelated.

I am an evangelist for Tripwire products and the solutions they enable. I have been with tripwire for nearly 7 years. I enjoy helping others understand why the solutions we offer are of value and how they deliver their value. My favorite question is “so what?” because it helps me determine what is of value and what is not.
