The Tripwire Journey
AAA had small implementation of Tripwire, but big Compliance issues in 2007 Multiple compliance pressures
Started with small shared Windows Enterprise Console & 10 agents
No administrators, no one watching real changes in the environment
Had change management, but lacked communication & coordination
We really did not know what was changing
Had to make a turn in our Journey
Start small, end big, but have patience!

The Need for Better SecurityFrom Compliance to Security
#pciwebcast
Unplanned work previously not identified As the rollout of agents continued, unplanned work began having visibility.
Tracking of changes meant identification & reporting on security incidents
Continuous monitoring means again more visibility, which equates to better preventive measures against attacks
Acquiring bank getting restless

Evaluating Solutions
Existing Products Evaluated existing products for configuration changes, alerting and reporting
Benefit of being entrenched products
No additional technology costs
Difficult to do simple change management and reporting
Product not best suited for our needs
