- Tripwire Enterprise Chosen by uSwitch.com to Enable it to Maintain a
Known and Trusted State Across all of its IT Systems

uSwitch.com, the independent price comparison and switching

based company's ongoing drive to ensure regulatory, security and operational
compliance across its IT infrastructure and to remain compliant with the
latest Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) accounting standards.

"The main driver for the adoption and implementation of Tripwire Enterprise
was to manage infrastructure change and to ensure our entire system remains
SOX compliant. Working with Tripwire will allow us to maintain the integrity
of our entire IT infrastructure stack, by easily monitoring, detecting and
reconciling all changes that are taking place."

us to spot and respond to issues far more quickly, thereby improving data
protection and satisfying file integrity monitoring and change control
requirements."

can be effortlessly downloaded from the Tripwire website. The Tripwire
software is then able to quickly and easily monitor our system configurations
against these standards and flag any weak points which we are then able to
remedy. Ultimately this is about freeing up time to concentrate on running
our business, safe in the knowledge that we are adhering to best practice
procedures and compliance standards."
