Firewall Management

Enterprise networks today typically include a combination of traditional firewalls, next generation firewalls (NGFWs) and cloud-based security controls from multiple vendors. Each vendor differs greatly in their capabilities and technology nuances yet you somehow have to manage this all together to ensure that your business applications function properly while maintaining your security posture.

A single pane of glass to manage your entire multi-vendor firewall estate

AlgoSec seamlessly integrates with all leading brands of traditional and next generation firewalls and cloud security controls, as well as routers, load balancers and web proxies, to deliver unified security policy management through a single pane of glass. AlgoSec abstracts vendor-specific technologies so you can focus on what drives your business. From auto-discovering application connectivity requirements, through “zero-touch” change execution, and unified risk and compliance reports, AlgoSec simplifies and automates firewall management across your heterogeneous environment.

With AlgoSec you can:

• Get an intelligent, live topology map of your entire network security estate
• Automate the entire firewall change management process, including hands-free policy push directly to the devices
• Manage next-generation firewall policies and cloud security groups alongside traditional firewalls
• Pinpoint and troubleshoot network connectivity issues
• Proactively assess risk and optimize firewall rulesets
• Instantly generate audit-ready reports for all the major regulations (PCI-DSS, SOX, HIPAA, and many more)

The Business Impact:

• Seamlessly manage all your entire firewall estate in a single pane of glass
• Process firewall changes in minutes instead of days
• Deliver an optimized and secure policy
• Streamline audit preparation processes and ensure continuous compliance
• Avoid outages and prevent cyber-attacks due to misconfigured firewalls

Application Discovery & Connectivity Management

Business applications rely on complex connectivity flows that span multi-cloud and hybrid networks. In order to quickly and securely provision or change network connectivity, network security operations teams need to understand and map these flows. They also need to be able to identify obsolete traffic flows that may act as a back door to unwanted or malicious traffic.

This is no easy task. It’s difficult to discover and map application flows across complex enterprise environments. There’s usually little to no up-to-date documentation. It can take months to gather this information. Additionally, it’s not always easy to understand and translate business requirements for connectivity into networking terms that can be securely implemented. Consequently, provisioning application connectivity can take weeks. With frequent change requests piling up, the lack of visibility into connectivity requirements causes outages and introduces unnecessary risk.

Discover applications, provision network traffic, and change and securely decommission application connectivity

With AlgoSec you can discover, provision, change and securely decommission connectivity for business applications. AlgoSec automatically discovers and maps application connectivity requirements to the network infrastructure, and then translates requests for connectivity changes into networking terms that security and operations teams can understand, approve, and implement.

By understanding application flows, AlgoSec helps avoid network-related outages throughout data center migration or consolidation projects, and enforces security and compliance across the enterprise.

With AlgoSec you can:

• Auto-discover applications and their connectivity flows – without requiring any prior knowledge
• Get a live and always up-to-date map of connectivity requirements
• Translate non-technical business requirements into networking terms
• Easily assess the impact of changes on application connectivity, security, and compliance
• Migrate connectivity to a new data center or the cloud through easy-to-use workflows
• Identify and remove access rules for decommissioned applications

The Business Impact:

• Accelerate application delivery
• Reduce the cost of manual application connectivity mapping efforts
• Avoid application outages due to network device misconfigurations
• Optimize traffic flows and improve firewall performance
• Simplify application and server migrations
• Enforce security and compliance across the data center
• Align application, security and network teams

Network Segmentation

Network segmentation is a key defense-in-depth strategy for enterprises today. It segregates and protects key company data and limits attackers’ lateral movements across the corporate network. It is also effective in reducing the scope of audits for regulations such as PCI-DSS. But managing the firewall rules that enforce your network segmentation is challenging – and the more segments you have the more firewalls you need to deploy and manage. This inherent trade-off between security and complexity often results in under-segmented networks, which are not as secure as they should be.

Easily define and enforce network segmentation

AlgoSec makes it easy to define and enforce network segmentation throughout your network and across all leading firewall platforms. With AlgoSec you can quickly validate that your existing network security policy does not violate your network segmentation strategy, block critical business services, and meets compliance requirements. AlgoSec will also proactively check every proposed firewall rule change request against your segmentation strategy to ensure that it doesn’t break it or introduce risk.

With AlgoSec you can:

• Easily define allowed traffic between your network segments
• Proactively assess the impact of every change on the network segmentation strategy
• Ensure changes adhere to the network segmentation strategy and compliance requirements
• Support software-defined micro-segmentation on platforms such as Cisco ACI and VMWare NSX

The Business Impact:

• Easily define and continuously enforce your network segmentation strategy across your heterogeneous environment
• Effectively limit the lateral movement of cyber attackers across your network
• Protect access to key financial and business assets
• Reduce the scope of a regulatory audit and compliance requirements

Firewall Policy Cleanup & Optimization

Over the years your firewalls have accumulated thousands of rules and objects, and many of these rules are now out-of-date or obsolete. Bloated rulesets not only add complexity to daily tasks such as change management, troubleshooting and auditing, they can also impact the performance of your firewall appliances, resulting in decreased hardware lifespan and increased TCO. Safely removing rules, however, is not easy as it may cause application outages. And periodic rule recertification projects are time-consuming and complex – with multiple teams trying to understand why rules were created in the first place.

Optimize your security policy and eliminate clutter

AlgoSec allows you to effortlessly optimize your firewall policy and keep it clean and lean. Its actionable reports identify and help you remove the bloat and clutter from your policy, while AlgoSec’s automated change management processes ensure that new rules are optimally designed and implemented so that you don’t generate more clutter over time.

With AlgoSec you can:

• Uncover and remove unused, duplicate or conflicting rules
• Consolidate or reorder rules for better performance
• Tighten overly permissive rules (e.g. “Any/Any”) without impacting business requirements
• Recertify expired rules based on security and business needs
• Maintain policy hygiene by intelligently designing each rule change
• Securely remove access for decommissioned applications
