success stories "With AlgoSec, we can analyze the firewall policies more efficiently and spend less time on repetitive and error-prone manual tasks. This automation saves time and man hours by at least five hours per change" Global IT Consulting Company Improves Security and Increases Efficiency by Eliminating Error-prone Manual Firewall Management AlgoSec Business Impact Cut time to plan and implement firewall changes by 50% Network security reporting and audits available at the click of a button Improved risk assessment as part of firewall change process to ensure accuracy Enable existing team to spend more time on other security tasks Background MothersonSumi INfotech and Designs Limited (MIND) is a global provider of end-to-end IT solutions, serving organizations in 24 nations. MIND is certified for ISO 9001:2008, ISO/IEC 27001:2005 and CMM Level 5, and provides consultancy services and solutions for Application Development and Maintenance, IT Infrastructure Management Services, Product Development and Engineering Solutions and helps customers achieve their desired ISO level. Challenge MIND’s complex network consists of many remote locations and is secured with more than 40 firewalls from multiple vendors, including Check Point, Fortinet and Juniper as well as Blue Coat proxies. With hundreds of unnecessary rules in each of the firewalls under management, MIND’s Network Support team members were spending too much time cleaning up the policy rule base. “Cleaning up the policy rule base is a tedious, risky manually-intensive job,” said Santosh Sahoo, Assistant Project Manager at MIND. “Furthermore, we had to evaluate the risks based on best practices or our experience, which was time consuming. We also had to collect and organize this information into the proper reporting format for ISO 27001 requirements.” Additionally, manually planning and implementing firewall changes was a time-consuming and complex process, as was keeping track of all of the changes and updating records for auditing and/or rollback purposes. With all of these challenges, plus increasing network complexity, MIND realized they needed a more efficient method for centrally monitoring and managing all of their security devices and policies. Solution MIND selected the AlgoSec Security Management solution to automate firewall operations across the entire multivendor estate and reduce the resource strain. “There were many reasons why we chose AlgoSec over alternative options. It met all of our requirements by supporting a wider range of devices, providing a dashboard with immediate visibility and more robust policy analysis,” said Harvansh Sagar, GM of IT Infrastructure. Results Since implementing AlgoSec, the MIND team has significantly improved its firewall policy management change processes — from identifying any pre-existing rules in place, to risk assessment, to simulating the change. “AlgoSec has helped us make our our network more secure and has improved our ability to efficiency to manage more client devices with the same resources,” said Sagar. “We are now able to more efficiently analyze the firewall policies, spend less time on repetitive and error-prone manual tasks and perform a risk assessment before approving firewall changes. This automation saves time and man hours by at least five hours per change,” said Santosh. “AlgoSec’s firewall policy analysis has also improved the performance of the firewalls with features like policy tuning, identifying un-used policies and reordering policies.” With AlgoSec, MIND has a complete understanding of what is occurring with the policy across all of their firewalls. “We have a virtual server dedicated to AlgoSec as our management server for all of the firewalls in our environment. It monitors our security policy 24×7 and provides us with real-time alerting for details like ‘who added/modified/removed the rule, what time the policy was pushed,’ etc. Now we have full visibility of what’s going on with these devices,” said Santosh. Using AlgoSec, MIND has also been able to significantly reduce the time to perform audits and ensure compliance. “We can now run an audit report for ISO 27001 out-of-the-box and get a view of the network security policy status in just a click of button.” Schedule time with one of our experts

success stories AlgoSec Case Study: Natilik and Rothschild Interview details Interviewee: Robert Elgidge, Security Solutions Director at Natilik Company: Natilik, UK-based global managed service provider Client: Rothschild, a multinational financial services institution Background Natilik, a global managed service provider, collaborated with AlgoSec to address the complex security challenges faced by Rothschild, a financial services leader with over 60 offices in 40 countries and $2.5 billion in annual revenue. Rothschild’s operations include investment banking, asset management, and private banking, as well as advisory roles for governments. Given their critical global role, securing and streamlining their IT infrastructure was a top priority. As part of their modernization strategy, Natilik also leveraged AWS to support Rothschild’s expanding cloud footprint and used the AlgoSec Horizon platform to provide unified visibility and security management across both AWS and on-prem environments. This hybrid approach allowed Natilik to centralize security policy analysis, application connectivity mapping, and risk prioritization across firewalls, cloud controls, and distributed sites. Watch the interview: Natilik’s expertise spans five key solution areas: Collaboration and modern work : enabling seamless communication and productivity across teams. Customer engagement : enhancing customer experiences through tailored digital solutions. Modern networks : building secure, scalable, and high-performing network infrastructures. Multi-cloud and data centers : supporting hybrid and multi-cloud environments for agility and scalability. Cybersecurity : providing end-to-end protection, which underpins all other solution areas. Cybersecurity forms the backbone of their offerings, ensuring clients like Rothschild can navigate an evolving threat landscape while maintaining compliance and operational excellence. Primary use case Rothschild’s primary challenges stemmed from fragmented security policies and inefficient manual processes. According to Robert Elgidge: “Rothschild’s large global firewall estate led to poor visibility and cumbersome management. AlgoSec was introduced to simplify these complexities, but initially, the company struggled with change management, approvals, and deploying firewall rules. Although AlgoSec offered the technology and intelligence needed, a significant amount of manual work was required to align stakeholders and integrate workflows.” With the introduction of AWS into their hybrid architecture, Natilik used AlgoSec Horizon to bridge visibility gaps between cloud and on-prem environments. Horizon’s application-centric discovery and cross-environment policy analysis helped Natilik consolidate cloud security groups, optimize hybrid access rules, and ensure consistent enforcement across AWS and traditional firewalls. AlgoSec’s deployment ultimately allowed Rothschild to consolidate security policies and automate manual processes, reducing errors and freeing resources for higher-value projects. Most valuable features Robert highlighted several standout features of AlgoSec: “AlgoSec’s rule intelligence feature was crucial. It identified which firewall rules were essential and which could be removed, dramatically simplifying the structure. This optimization not only improved performance but also saved significant costs. Initially, Rothschild considered investing in new firewall infrastructure, but AlgoSec’s ability to streamline and prioritize existing rules negated that need. The resulting performance boost was substantial, avoiding unnecessary expenses and improving operational efficiency.” By focusing on rule prioritization and optimization, AlgoSec enhanced Rothschild’s security posture and operational outcomes. With the addition of AlgoSec’s cloud-native capabilities (via its Horizon/ACE architecture), this rule intelligence and optimization extends not only to physical and on-prem firewalls, but also to cloud-native firewalls and security-group configurations ensuring effective policy hygiene across hybrid and multi-cloud estates. Areas for improvement Despite AlgoSec’s benefits, Robert noted areas for potential improvement: “Internal challenges with workflows and approvals persisted. While AlgoSec provided the technical capabilities, a more tailored approach to building or improving management processes would have been helpful. The main difficulties lay in the bureaucratic side of things, such as aligning request and approval roles.” These challenges highlighted the importance of aligning organizational processes with advanced security technologies. Usage duration “My experience with AlgoSec began in 2022, during its deployment at Rothschild. Shortly after, I transitioned to another organization that also used AlgoSec, which gave me further insight into its capabilities across different environments.” Solution stability Robert praised AlgoSec’s reliability: “There were no stability issues. Once AlgoSec was fully integrated, it became the central authority for rule management. We removed manual admin rights from the technical team, ensuring all changes went through AlgoSec. This approach eliminated human error and reinforced the solution’s effectiveness.” This stability now also covers hybrid and cloud-native policy environments, so Rothschild benefits from the same governance and control whether rules apply to physical appliances or cloud firewalls. Customer service and support “The technical support team was highly skilled and responsive. However, in regions like Brazil, where collaboration often involves discussions and in-person meetings, a purely technical approach didn’t always fully address our needs. A more consultative support model could enhance the customer experience in these scenarios.” Initial setup “Deploying AlgoSec was challenging due to the complexity of Rothschild’s network. However, the technical support team acted quickly to address any issues, ensuring the implementation proceeded smoothly. Once the environment was stabilized, maintenance and ongoing use were straightforward.” Return on investment AlgoSec delivered a strong return on investment for Rothschild: “The money saved on after-hours work alone justified the tool within the first year. By optimizing firewall rules and automating workflows, we achieved significant operational savings. This freed up resources for other critical business initiatives, directly contributing to profitability.” With the addition of cloud-native policy management, Rothschild now sees potential additional savings by avoiding redundant firewall investments and streamlining cloud infrastructure as part of their hybrid estate. Pricing, setup costs, and licensing “Compared to other solutions like Tufin and FireMon, AlgoSec was competitively priced and stayed within budget. There were no significant additional costs apart from standard licensing fees. While we did hire new personnel to support change management, that was more related to internal processes than the technology itself.” Final insights Robert shared his advice for organizations considering AlgoSec: “AlgoSec is best suited for larger enterprises with complex environments, especially those with multiple firewall vendors and over 500 rules. For smaller setups, the added complexity of a dedicated solution might not be necessary. However, for businesses dealing with significant network complexity, AlgoSec simplifies management and delivers substantial value. With its cloud-native capabilities, hybrid-ready architecture, and unified policy management across on-prem and cloud, it’s more relevant than ever for organisations operating across diverse infrastructures.I’d rate it 10 out of 10 for companies with the right use case.” Schedule time with one of our experts

Vitae donec tincidunt elementum quam laoreet duis sit enim. Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 3/18/24 Published Application outages caused by human error can be a nightmare for businesses, leading to financial losses, customer dissatisfaction, and reputational damage. While human error is inevitable, organizations can implement effective strategies to minimize its impact and resolve outages promptly. In this blog post, we will explore proven solutions for addressing human error in application outages, empowering businesses to enhance their operational resilience and deliver uninterrupted services to their customers. Organizations must emphasize training and education One of the most crucial steps in resolving human error in application outages is investing in comprehensive training and education for IT staff. By ensuring that employees have the necessary skills, knowledge, and understanding of the application environment, organizations can reduce the likelihood of errors occurring. Training should cover proper configuration management, system monitoring, troubleshooting techniques, and incident response protocols. Additionally, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement is essential. Encourage employees to stay up to date with the latest technologies, best practices, and industry trends through workshops, conferences, and online courses. Regular knowledge sharing sessions and cross-team collaborations can also help mitigate human errors by fostering a culture of accountability and knowledge transfer. It’s time to implement robust change management processes Implementing rigorous change management processes is vital for preventing human errors that lead to application outages. Establishing a standardized change management framework ensures that all modifications to the application environment go through a well-defined process, reducing the risk of inadvertent errors. The change management process should include proper documentation of proposed changes, a thorough impact analysis, and rigorous testing in non-production environments before deploying changes to the production environment. Additionally, maintaining a change log and conducting post-implementation reviews can provide valuable insights for identifying and rectifying any potential errors. Why automate and orchestrate operational tasks Human errors often occur due to repetitive, mundane tasks that are prone to oversight or mistakes. Automating and orchestrating operational tasks can significantly reduce human error in application outages. Organizations should leverage automation tools to streamline routine tasks such as provisioning, configuration management, and deployment processes. By removing the manual element, the risk of human error decreases, and the consistency and accuracy of these tasks improve. Furthermore, implementing orchestration tools allows for the coordination and synchronization of complex workflows involving multiple teams and systems. This reduces the likelihood of miscommunication and enhances collaboration, minimizing errors caused by lack of coordination. Establish effective monitoring and alerting mechanisms Proactive monitoring and timely alerts are crucial for identifying potential issues and resolving them before they escalate into outages. Implementing robust monitoring systems that capture key performance indicators, system metrics, and application logs enables IT teams to quickly identify anomalies and take corrective action. Additionally, setting up alerts and notifications for critical events ensures that the appropriate personnel are notified promptly, allowing for rapid response and resolution. Leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities can enhance monitoring by detecting patterns and anomalies that human operators might miss. Human errors will always be a factor in application outages, but by implementing effective strategies, organizations can minimize their impact and resolve incidents promptly. Investing in comprehensive training, robust change management processes, automation and orchestration, and proactive monitoring can significantly reduce the likelihood of human error-related outages. By prioritizing these solutions and fostering a culture of continuous improvement, businesses can enhance their operational resilience, protect their reputation, and deliver uninterrupted services to their customers.

This allows organizations to protect sensitive data and block unauthorized access without relying on painstaking manual processes. Firewall management is a vital part of every organization’s security posture. AlgoSec helps organizations develop and maintain valuable policies from a single dashboard. It generates notifications when firewall policies need updating to include new threat signatures, and automates the process of introducing those new signatures into the organization’s firewall policies. This allows organizations to respond to rapidly-developing threats quickly. Organizations can protect themselves against phishing attacks, spyware, trojans, and computer viruses more effectively when their firewalls are consistently configured. Schedule a Demo What is network security policy management? Network security policy management is the process of optimizing the security rules information systems follow when handling network traffic. This may include protections against using company devices for unauthorized purposes – like accessing social media – as well as strict rules for protecting personal data and fighting cybercrime. Network security policies are highly dependent on the solutions and technologies that make up the organization’s tech stack. Strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, and SSL certification are examples of elements common to many policies.

Network Segmentation Host-based firewalls vs. network-based firewalls for network security?

Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 8/28/23 Published Before your organization can move business applications to the cloud, it must deploy network security solutions that can reliably block cybercrime and malware. Firewalls are essential cybersecurity tools that protect network traffic against threat actors. There are many different types of firewalls available, but put the same basic principles in action. Before finding out which types of firewalls offer the best security performance for your cloud implementation, it’s important to cover how firewalls work and what characteristics set them apart. How firewalls work: Different types of firewalls explained Firewalls are best explained through analogy. Think of firewalls as 24/7 security guards with deep knowledge of millions of criminals. Whenever the security guard sees a criminal approaching an access point, they block access and turn the criminal away. This kind of access control is accomplished in a few different ways. Some firewalls inspect packets for suspicious characteristics. Others use stateful inspection to identify malicious traffic. Some incorporate contextual awareness to tell the difference between harmless traffic and cyberattacks . Here are some of the major types of firewalls and how they work: Packet filtering firewalls inspect data traveling through inline junction points like routers and switches. They don’t route data packets themselves, but compare them to a list of firewall rules. For example, they may filter packets that are traveling to untrusted IP addresses and drop them. Circuit-level gateways monitor TCP handshake data and other protocol messages for signs of unauthorized access. These firewalls don’t inspect individual packets or application layer monitoring, though. Proxy firewalls apply application layer filtering that filters data according to a wide range of characteristics. This category includes web application firewalls, which are a type of reverse proxy firewall – they protect the server from malicious traffic by filtering clients before they reach the server. Stateful inspection firewalls examine and compare multiple packets to find out if they are part of an established network session. This offers a high degree of control over incoming and outgoing traffic while providing comprehensive logs on network connections. Next-generation firewalls combine packet inspection, stateful inspection, antivirus, and additional technologies to protect organizations against unknown threats and vulnerabilities. These firewalls are expensive and have high bandwidth requirements, but they also offer a high level of protection. All of these firewalls exist in different forms. Traditional hardware firewalls are physical devices that sit between network devices and the internet. Network-based firewalls are software-defined apps designed to do the same thing. Hardware, software, or cloud? firewall deployment methods compared Organizations have multiple options when deciding to host firewalls on their private networks. The market offers a vast number of security devices and firewall providers, ranging from Cisco hardware to software solutions like Microsoft’s Windows firewall. Large enterprises use a combination of firewall solutions to adopt a multi-layered security posture. This allows them to achieve network scalability and segmentation while offering different levels of protection to data centers, individual devices, and user endpoints. As firewall technology becomes more accessible, smaller organizations are following suit. Here are some of the delivery formats that firewall solutions commonly come in: Network-based Firewalls are self-contained hardware appliances. They typically run custom operating systems using Linux distributions designed for secure computer networking. They can be challenging to configure and deploy, but are appropriate for a wide range of use cases. Host-based Firewalls run as software on a server or other device. You can run host-based firewalls on individual computers, or at the host level of a cloud environment. The firewalls offer granular control over security rules and individual hosts, but consume resources in the process. Cloud Hosted Firewalls are provided by third-party security partners as a service. These firewalls may be entirely managed by a third-party partner, making them ideal for small organizations that can’t afford building their own security infrastructure from the ground up. How to select an optimal firewall solution for your organization Every organization has a unique security risk profile. Finding the right firewall deployment for your organization requires in-depth knowledge of your network’s security vulnerabilities and potential for long-term growth. Some of the issues you have to consider include: Identifying technical objectives for individual firewalls. There are no one-size-fits-all firewall solutions. One solution may match a particular use case that another does not. Both stateless packet inspection firewalls and sophisticated next-generation solutions operate at different levels of the OSI model, which means each device should serve a well-defined purpose. Selecting firewall solutions that match your team’s expertise. Consider your IT team’s technical qualifications. If configuring a sophisticated next-generation firewall requires adding talent with specialized certifications to your team, the cost of that deployment will rise considerably. Deploying firewalls in ways that improve security performance while reducing waste. Optimal firewall architecture requires effective network segmentation and good security policies. Deploying a secure local area network (LAN) and using virtual private networks (VPNs) can help optimize firewall placement throughout the organization. Determining which kinds of traffic inspection are necessary. Different types of network connections require different levels of security. For example, a public-facing Wi-Fi router is far more likely to encounter malicious traffic than an internal virtual local area network (VLAN) that only authenticated employees can access. How to choose between host-based firewalls and network-based firewalls when moving to the cloud Organizations that are transitioning to cloud infrastructure need to completely rethink their firewall deployment strategy. Firewalls are the cornerstone of access control, and cloud-hosted infrastructure comes with the shared responsibility model that puts pressure on security leaders to carefully deploy security resources. In many cases, you’ll face tough decisions concerning which type of firewall to deploy at particular points in your network. Building an optimal deployment means working through the pros and cons of each option on a case-by-case basis. Host-based firewalls and network-based firewalls are the two main options you’ll encounter for most use cases. Let’s look at what each of those options look like from a complete network security perspective . 1. Host-based firewalls offer flexibility but may introduce vulnerabilities A cloud-native organization that exclusively uses host-based firewalls will have a cloud environment filled with virtual machines that take the place of servers and individual computers. To protect those devices, the organization will implement host-based firewalls on every virtual machine and configure them accordingly. This provides the organization with a great deal of flexibility. IT team members can clone virtual machines and move them within the cloud on demand. The host-based firewalls that protect these machines can move right alongside them, ensuring consistent security policies are enforced without painstaking manual configuration. It’s even possible to move virtual machines between cloud environments – like moving a virtual server from Amazon AWS to Microsoft Azure – without having to create completely new security policies in the process. This makes it easy for IT teams to work securely without introducing friction. However, if attackers gain privileged access to host-based firewalls, they gain the same level of control. They may switch off the firewall or install malicious code in ways that other security technologies cannot detect. Even highly secure organizations are subject to this kind of risk. Imagine an attacker compromises the credentials of a system administrator with firewall configuration privileges. Very few obstacles stand between an insider threat and the sensitive data they wish to exfiltrate. Network-based firewalls offer independent security Compared to host-based firewall products, it’s much harder for a malicious insider to compromise a network-based firewall solution managed by a cloud provider. That’s because the physical hardware is operating on a completely separate system from the host. In a cloud-native environment, the network-based firewall would be a fully hardened device managed by a third-party provider running their own intrusion detection systems. This makes it much harder for attackers to successfully infiltrate and compromise systems without being noticed. At the same time, independent network-based firewall architecture means that the attacker would have to compromise both your network and the cloud provider’s network without triggering security alerts from either. This adds a great deal of complexity to any attack, and significantly increases the chance it will be detected. However, few organizations can afford to exclusively deploy hardware firewalls at every layer of their network. Even those that can afford it will run into significant challenges when planning for growth and scalability. Segment your network for optimal protection While they offer increased security, hardware firewalls are costly to deploy and maintain. Most organizations segment their networks in ways that offer extensive multi-layered protection to their most sensitive data while allowing more flexible host-based firewalls to protect less critical assets. Every organization has a unique balance between optimal network-based firewall and host-based firewall deployment. This depends heavily on the volume of sensitive data the organization regularly accesses, and the security of its connections with users and third-party service providers. Proper network segmentation helps reduce the organization’s attack surface and decrease the risk of business disruption.
