Firewall Risk Assessment

Get a clear understanding of your firewall security, ranking and prioritise threats to your business-critical assets.

Today’s Challenges
Complex firewall configurations and changing corporate policies can lead to risks being hidden within hundreds, or even thousands, of firewall rules. In addition, massive rule bases lead to duplicated, disabled, unused or expired rules and unused objects, which significantly slow the performance of firewall devices.

Your administrators may be struggling to keep up with user access requests, configuration changes and manual searches for errors in rule bases. If so, Pentura provides a powerful solution with unparalleled benefits.

Introducing Pentura’s Firewall Risk Assessment (FRA)
By providing critical insight into firewall and router configurations, Pentura’s Firewall Risk Assessment enables enterprises to enhance security, increase operational efficiency, and maintain compliance with corporate policies and regulatory requirements.

The Firewall Risk Assessment report gives an overview of your firewall security, ranking and prioritising threats to your business-critical assets. As well as setting out straightforward guidance on remediation and removal of redundant objects, we also provide best-practice recommendations.

Common risks identified by the Firewall Risk Assessment include excessive permissions, vendor-supplied default rules and passwords, and third-party access left in place following authorised troubleshooting.

We liaise closely with clients at each stage of the Firewall Risk Assessment process – from initial consultation, through the firewall audit and data analysis, to presentation of the finished report. This approach enables us to put into context all the issues and recommendations, ensuring that you gain maximum value from Pentura’s service.

Compatible with Check Point, Cisco and Juniper Netscreen platforms, Pentura’s Firewall Risk Assessment is available either as a one-off consultancy service or a regular quarterly or biannual assessment of your firewall security.
