Firewall Ruleset Review

Overview

Firewall Ruleset Review is an audit that checks for vulnerabilities, firewall software configuration, and Security Policy. A Firewall Ruleset Review assessment will answer the following questions:

• Does your firewall has optimum ruleset defined as per the configuration standard?
• Has your firewall become difficult to manage with too many rules and overlaps?
• Is there business justification for the rules? Are they all relevant and necessary?

Our Services

Out security consultants will understand your network and your business requirements and will review network diagrams and firewall configuration standards to understand the scope and business process. The configuration of your firewalls will be assessed with a view to identifying any rules or settings which could present a risk to your systems.

The firewall ruleset review will seek to determine where access permissions can be tightened, and where management procedures can be refined to increase protection of the devices themselves. Aspects such as change control, user management and rule base clarity will be assessed, as well as the quality and granularity of the configured rules.

The final report will document the findings and provide recommendations for improvements where needed. Our consultant will be available for any discussions and assist in understanding any findings as well as prioritizing remediation efforts
