Tata Communications Deploys RedSeal Software to Continuously Monitor Global Security and Compliance

SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwire - November 3, 2009) - RedSeal Systems, Inc. (www.redseal.net), the leader in security posture management software, today announced that Tata Communications, a leading global provider of advanced communications solutions, has selected RedSeal's software to continuously monitor security and compliance across its world-wide network.

"Tata Communications operates one of the world's largest IP networks, spanning more than 200 countries and incorporating thousands of network devices," said Adam Rice, Chief Security Officer of Tata Communications. "RedSeal enables us to deliver best-in-class security to our customers. We can continuously verify that our security policies are enforced, identify any potential holes and proactively address any issues."

RedSeal software brings a new level of insight to network security. In addition to evaluating individual firewalls and routers, it analyzes how devices work together to enable or deny end-to-end access on the network. This makes it easy to discover security holes that may exist on the network. In addition, RedSeal organizes the entire infrastructure into security zones, allowing organizations to validate that their firewalls enforce business-level policies for access.

"RedSeal is also a key component of Tata Communications' ISO 27001 implementation," continued Rice. "As a global service provider, we are subject to numerous regulations and use ISO 27001 as our corporate framework for compliance. RedSeal automatically monitors our network controls to assure that they are operating as intended. This enables us to continuously maintain compliance as well as streamline security audits."

"RedSeal is pleased to be working with Tata Communications," commented Tom Arthur, President and CEO of RedSeal Systems. "By assuring that their security posture remains continuously strong, RedSeal software will help Tata Communication deliver communications services incorporating best-in-breed security to their clients world-wide."
