NNT – Change Tracker Enterprise for Government Organizations

If you are responsible for managing IT systems for a Government organization or a division of a Government organization then you probably have one of the most challenging jobs in IT.

Most IT infrastructures within Government organizations have grown over time under various regimes and usually under varying budget allowances. Priorities are ever changing in Government and therefore so are the demands placed on IT staff.

Added to this is the fact that IT within Government is usually distributed and users massively varied in terms of skills and job functions.

Compliance also plays a significant part and something, which is only set to increase. Security, configuration and system integrity are paramount for the protection of Citizens’ Personal Information and system availability.

For example, in the UK, HM Government’s own GCSx Code of Connection (CoCo)security standard is a moving target, increasing in its scope every year. In addition, PCI DSS is mandatory due to Council Tax payments being received via payment cards – both standards call for tight change control and event log management.

NNT solutions ensure that systems remain compliant by tracking all changes and flagging any illegal or unauthorized changes immediately using a combination of configuration change tracking and event log analysis and correlation

Steve Brasen of Analyst Firm ‘Enterprise Management Associates’ said of Change Tracker:

“With Change Tracker in place, environment problems can be quickly identified and resolved. Performance and health status information are reported, indicating existing and potential problems. By correlating these environment conditions with change events, the root cause of incidents can be easily detected, often resolving problems even before they are detected by end users.”

Steve went on to say:

EMA “Achieving compliance is also simplified with pre-built templates for popular regulatory initiatives, including PCI DSS, HIPPA, SOX, NERC and Co Connection. NNT’s Change Tracker takes the pain out of compliance auditing and establishes constancy and reliability in the support stack.“
