Symantec Security Enhanced by Workflow - Part III

The Symantec Workflow Business Practice has developed Workflow templates around 4 products in their Security suite; Control Compliance Suite (CCS), Critical Systems Protection (CSP), Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP). The templates add some proactive business processes around the already great products from Symantec. The templates are available to Symantec clients for free and WEVO can help you get them implemented if you don't have a Symantec Workflow expert on staff.

This week we're focusing on Critical System Protection. Below we will be sharing information from Workflowswat.com to describe the features and functionality of the template. You can also access videos at www.workflowswat.com/process-templates.html.

CSP Event Management Template

This template provides a “Best Practice” process for monitoring CSP events.

The main features of this template are…

• Using the Workflow console, the customer can select which CSP profiles they want Workflow to monitor.
• Workflow integrates with the CSP event data and starts a remediation process for each monitored CSP event.
• Audit reporting – Who, What, When. Customers can run process reports by Profile, Event, and Date Range. These reports can be provided to regulators and help avoid many of the challenges that can occur during an audit. Also, these reports add value by providing metrics for continuous process improvement.
• Customers can take the base template and extend it to integrate with other systems as needed.

Stay tuned, next week we'll be highlighting the Data Loss Prevention template!
