Announcing Playbook 2.5 With Integrated Ticketing, Change Review, And Audit
Max Caceres | June 02nd, 2009
Right from the get-go our vision for Playbook was to provide a no-frills integrated view of the complete life cycle of every rule on every firewall under management. From the moment a change request is submitted until it is finally fulfilled by rule edits deployed to your firewalls. Coupled with version control and transparent branching, Playbook’s ticketing not only helps you manage incoming requests — which any ticketing system can do — but allows you to review changes before they hit any firewalls, and provides critical information to the firewall management process by linking multiple rule changes to the request that originated them.
The complete change history behind every line on every firewall ruleset — who requested it, why, what were the suggested changes and who approved them — is then available at the click of a button. We think that’s pretty cool.
We are very excited about 2.5 and hope you are too. Check the updated Playbook’s site to see what’s new in 2.5.
