- Prevasio sandbox 'Detonates' containers in a safe virtual environment | AlgoSec
Enhance container security with Prevasio's sandbox. Isolate and "detonate" containers in a safe environment to uncover hidden threats and prevent breaches. Prevasio sandbox 'Detonates' containers in a safe virtual environment Network traffic analysis Prevasio Sandbox intercepts and inspects all network traffic generated by containers, including HTTPS traffic. SSL/TLS inspection is enabled with Prevasio’s MITM proxy certificate being dynamically injected into the virtual file system of the analysed container images. Currently, Prevasio Sandbox provides HTTPS interception for the 10 most common Linux distributions. The following example demonstrates an interception of HTTP and HTTPS traffic in a container spawned from a public Docker Hub image. Schedule a Demo Vulnerability scan Prevasio Sandbox scans container images for the presence of any vulnerable packages and libraries. For example, this ️ Docker Hub image contains critical vulnerabilities in 28 packages. Schedule a Demo ML classifier for malware Any x32/x64 ELF executable files created both during container image build phase and the runtime are scanned with Prevasio’s Machine Learing (ML) model. The ML model used by Prevasio relies on ELF file’s static characteristics, its entropy, and the sequence of its disassembled code. Here is an example of a malicious container image hosted️ at Docker Hub, that was picked up by Prevasio’s ML Classifier. Let’s see what happens if we recompile Mirai bot’s source code️ , by using custom domains for C2 (command-and-control) traffic. The Dockerfile with instructions to fetch, modify, and compile Mirai source code is available here️ . As you see in this example, the use of ML provides resistant detection, even if the malware was modified. Schedule a Demo Automated Pen-Test Full static visibility of the container’s internals is not sufficient to tell if a container image in question is safe indeed. During the last stage of its analysis, Prevasio Sandbox simulates attackers’ actions, first trying to fingerprint services running within the analysed container, and then engaging exploits against them. In addition to that, the pen-test performs a brute-force attack against an identified service (such as SSH, FTP or SQL), in order to find weak credentials that would allow the attackers to log in. As the pen-test is performed in an isolated environment, it poses no risk to the production environment. The following example demonstrates how the automated pen-test has identified the type of MySQL server running inside a container spawned from this️ Docker Hub image, then successfully brute-forced it and found working credentials against it. Schedule a Demo System event graph Prevasio collects kernel-level system events within a running container: File system events Network events Process lifecycle events Kernel syscalls User call events These events are then correlated into a hierarchy, visually displayed in the form of a force-directed graph. The graph allows to visually identify problematic containers and also quickly establish remote access points. Here is an example of an event graph generated for ️this Docker Hub image.

- Firewall change management process: How does It work? | AlgoSec
Learn about the essential firewall change management process. Understand how to implement, track, and control changes to your firewall configurations for optimal security and compliance. Firewall change management process: How does It work? Are network firewalls adequately managed in today's complex environment? For more than two decades, we have been utilizing network firewalls, yet we’re still struggling to properly manage them. In today’s world of information-driven businesses there’s a lot more that can go wrong— and a lot more to lose—when it comes to firewalls, firewall policy management and overall network security. Network environments have become so complex that a single firewall configuration change can take the entire network offline and expose your business to cyber-attacks. Schedule a Demo Why you need firewall change management processes Improperly managed firewalls create some of the greatest business risks in any organization, however often you don’t find out about these risks until it is too late. Outdated firewall rules can allow unauthorized network access which result in cyber-attacks and gaps in compliance with industry and government regulations, while improper firewall rule changes can break business applications. Often, it is simple errors and oversights in the firewall change management process that cause problems, such as opening the network perimeter to security exploits and creating business continuity issues. Therefore, firewall configuration changes present a business challenge that you need to address properly once and for all. Schedule a Demo Firewall change management FAQs Frequently asked questions about the firewall change management process How can I manage firewall changes? In IT, things are constantly in a state of flux. The firewall change management process is one of the biggest problems that businesses face, however, if you can manage the firewall configuration changes consistently over time, then you’ve already won half the battle. You’ll not only have a more secure network environment, but you will allow IT to serve its purpose by facilitating business rather than getting in the way. To manage firewall changes properly, it’s critical to have well-documented and reasonable firewall policies and procedures, combined with automation controls, such as AlgoSec’s security policy management solution, to help with enforcement and oversight. With AlgoSec you can automate the entire firewall change management process: Process firewall changes with zero-touch automation in minutes, instead of days – from planning and design through to deployment on the device – while maintaining full control and ensuring accuracy Leverage topology awareness to identify all the firewalls that are affected by a proposed change Proactively assess the impact of every firewall change before it is implemented to ensure security and continuous compliance with regulatory and corporate standards Automate rule recertification processes while also identifying firewall rules which are out of date, unused or unnecessary Reconcile change requests with the actual changes performed, to identify any changes that were performed “out of band” Automatically document the entire firewall change management workflow It is also important to analyze the impact firewall changes will have on the business. The ideal way is to utilize AlgoSec’s firewall policy management solution to test different scenarios before pushing them out to production. Once AlgoSec and your processes are integrated with your overall change management workflow, you can set your business up for success instead of creating a “wait and see” situation, and “hoping” everything works out. Simply put, if you don’t have the proper insight and predictability, then you’ll set up your business and yourself for failure. How can I assess the risk of my firewall policies? As networks become more complex and firewall rulesets continue to grow, it becomes increasingly difficult to identify and quantify the risk caused by misconfigured or overly permissive firewall rules. A major contributor to firewall policy risks is lack of understanding of exactly what the firewall is doing at any given time. Even if traffic is flowing and applications are working, it doesn’t mean you don’t have unnecessary exposure. All firewall configuration changes either move your network towards better security or increased risks. Even the most experienced firewall administrator can make mistakes. Therefore, the best approach for minimizing firewall policy risks is to use automated firewall policy management tools to help find and fix the security risks before they get out of control. Automated firewall policy management tools, such as AlgoSec, employ widely-accepted firewall best practices and can analyze your current environment to highlight gaps and weaknesses. AlgoSec can also help tighten overly permissive rules (e.g., “ANY” service) by pinpointing the traffic that is flowing through any given rule. Combining policy analysis with the right tools allows you to be proactive with firewall security rather than finding out about the risks once it’s too late. How can I maintain optimized firewall rulesets? Maintaining a clean set of firewall rules is one of the most important functions in network security. Unwieldy rulesets are not just a technical nuisance—they also create business risks, such as open ports and unnecessary VPN tunnels, conflicting rules that create backdoor entry points, and an enormous amount of unnecessary complexity. In addition, bloated rulesets significantly complicate the auditing process, which often involves a review of each rule and its related business justification. This creates unnecessary costs for the business and wastes precious IT time. Examples of problematic firewall rules include unused rules, shadowed rules, expired rules, unattached objects and rules that are not ordered optimally (e.g. the most hit rule is at the bottom of the policy, creating unnecessary firewall overhead). Proactive and periodic checks can help eliminate rule base oversights and allow you to maintain a firewall environment that facilitates security rather than exposes weaknesses. To effectively manage your firewall rulesets, you need the right firewall administrator tools, such as AlgoSec, that will provide you with the visibility needed to see which rules can be eliminated or optimized, and what the implications are of removing or changing a rule. AlgoSec can also automate the change process, eliminating the need for time-consuming and inaccurate manual checks. You also need to ensure that you manage the rulesets on all firewalls. Picking and choosing certain firewalls is like limiting the scope of a security assessment to only part of your network. Your results will be limited, creating a serious false sense of security. It’s fine to focus on your most critical firewalls initially, but you need to address the rulesets across all firewalls eventually.

- Prevent & block ransomware attacks on firewall | AlgoSec
Learn how to effectively prevent and block ransomware attacks using your firewall. Discover essential configurations and best practices for enhanced security. Prevent & block ransomware attacks on firewall What is a ransomware attack? Ransomware is a malware attack that locks a victim’s data and demands a ransom, usually in Bitcoin, for its release. It often spreads through disguised executable files or malicious emails but can also exploit software vulnerabilities. A notable instance is the WannaCry attack, which spread without user interaction. Given the increasing sophistication of these attacks, understanding and combating ransomware is crucial for tightened cybersecurity. Schedule a Demo What are the main types of malware and ransomware threats? Understanding the variants of malware and ransomware infections in cybersecurity is critical to effective prevention and response. These threats can range from viruses to sophisticated Ransomware-as-a-Service models. Let’s delve into the main types: Viruses – Malicious software that can spread to other files and operating systems. Worms – Self-replicating malware spreading independently through networks, causing significant damage. Trojans – Disguised as legitimate software or files, Trojans can steal data or exploit permissions to gain unauthorized system access. Adware – This malware displays unwanted ads or pop-ups on a system, often for the attacker’s revenue generation. Fake pop-ups – Messages claiming your system has a virus and demanding payment for its removal, such as FakeAV and System Progressive Protection. Rootkits – Designed to hide their presence, rootkits enable remote access for malware, making it difficult for antivirus software to detect and remove the threats. Botnets – Attackers use these networks of compromised computers, known as botnets, to carry out remote DDoS and other cyber attacks. Spyware – This malware secretly monitors user activity and collects sensitive data. Fileless malware – Operating entirely in a system’s memory, this malware type is hard to detect and remove. Phishing emails – Disguised emails that trick recipients into clicking a malicious link or opening email attachments that appear authentic. Malvertising – Hackers inject malicious code into legitimate online advertising networks, redirecting users to malicious websites. Drive-by attacks – Users visit unsafe, fake web pages, including sites infected unknowingly or fake sites posing as legitimate ones. Self-propagation – Physically infects a system through a network or USB drive. Encryption ransomware – Encrypts your files and demands payment in return for the decryption key. Examples include CryptoLocker and WannaCry. Locker ransomware – A cyber threat restricting access to your system, demanding payment for restoring access. Winlocker and Police-themed ransomware are examples. Mobile ransomware – Targeting mobile devices, this ransomware locks the device or encrypts the files, demanding payment for their release. Android Defender and Simplelocker are examples. RaaS (Ransomware-as-a-Service) – Distributed as a service, this ransomware model allows anyone to buy or rent ransomware kits or apps for infecting others. Recognizing these threats is the first step toward ransomware prevention . Schedule a Demo Are firewalls able to provide ransomware protection? Yes, firewalls offer a layer of protection against ransomware. They act as a barrier between computers and networks, scanning incoming and outgoing traffic based on defined security parameters to block malicious packets. Firewalls can help thwart ransomware attacks by blocking suspect IP addresses, prohibiting remote access without authorization, and controlling the flow of certain data types that could carry ransomware. Schedule a Demo Which firewall rules can block ransomware? Several firewall rules can help block ransomware: Block known malicious IP addresses – You can configure firewalls to block traffic from IP addresses known to often distribute ransomware. Block all inbound traffic on port 445 – Used for file and printer sharing, port 445 is a common target for ransomware attacks. Restrict outbound traffic – Limiting outbound traffic to necessary ports can prevent a ransomware attack from communicating with its command and control server, thus halting the attack. Implement Geo-IP filtering – Some organizations may find it beneficial to block or limit traffic from specific countries or regions, particularly if they are known sources of ransomware. Disable Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) – Many ransomware attacks exploit RDP to gain remote access to systems. Disabling RDP at the firewall can help prevent these advanced threats. Implement Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS) – These systems can detect unusual traffic patterns or system activities that suggest a ransomware attack, allowing the firewall to respond and block the attack. Application control – Firewalls with application control features can prevent the execution of unrecognized or unauthorized applications, which can stop the delivery or execution of ransomware. Schedule a Demo What are the best practices for ransomware prevention? Clean up and tighten firewall rules Over time, firewall rules can get messy. This mess might let attackers in, just like weak VPNs or vulnerable email security can. Regularly cleaning up firewall and endpoint protection rules can help stop a ransomware attack . When you change a rule, make sure you know why. Misconfigured changes could disrupt apps or expose VPN tunnels. Analyze the risks and vulnerabilities in your network Every network security solution has some risks. These risks come from different providers. It is essential to find these risks and rank them based on how much they can harm your business. Since threats can pop up anytime, endpoint security with anti-malware features is essential. Focus on risks that could hurt critical business apps. Tying vulnerabilities to related firewall rules can make this easier, just like real-time updates in endpoint security can help stay ahead of new threats. Mitigate lateral movement and control east-west traffic with network segmentation Using network segmentation allows you to minimize the impact on your network in case of an attack. This is particularly effective against swift threats such as zero-day attacks, which target a software vulnerability that is unknown to the software vendor or to antivirus vendors. By securing crucial company data in protected segments with strong encryption keys and employing sandboxing, you are well-equipped to manage east-west traffic. East-west traffic refers to the communication or data transfer that happens inside the network, from server to server, or between internal applications. By managing this traffic, you can prevent attackers from moving laterally across your network. Adding multi-factor authentication can make this strategy even more robust. It adds another layer of security to keep attackers under control. For enhanced protection against cyber threats, consider implementing micro-segmentation . This advanced method can provide granular security controls and can further deter lateral movement across your network. Identify where your hybrid network is exposed to public networks In complex network setups with multi-cloud and hybrid systems, it is very important to see everything that is happening. You need to know how your business apps connect, including any vectors that unwanted or harmful traffic, such as bots, could use. To understand where your hybrid network is exposed to public networks, you need a complete map of your network and the ability to simulate traffic. This information can help you find and fix points where your network is exposed. Respond to incidents coming from SIEM/SOAR solutions with rapid isolation SIEM/SOAR systems collect and examine logs from your IT setup, security tools, and business apps. This helps the SOC team find and flag strange activities for further investigation. But with so much data, many alerts are false positives. Still, this does not mean you are lost in a sea of noise. By linking security incidents to network traffic patterns, you can tell if a compromised server is exposed to the internet. This can help you quickly separate an infected server if a Trojan gets past your defenses, which is a crucial strategy in stopping ransomware attacks. Schedule a Demo What steps must you take when a ransomware attack is detected? Step 1: Identify the attack – Act quickly if you think you are under a ransomware attack. Signs of an attack can include files you cannot open, weird computer activity, or a ransom message on your screen. If you see these, confirm it is ransomware and take steps to limit the damage. Step 2: Isolate affected systems – When you know you are under attack, isolate the affected computers from the rest of your network. This can stop the ransomware from spreading. You might need to disconnect from the internet, turn off Wi-Fi, or even shut down the system. Step 3: Secure backup data – Backups can help you recover from ransomware. If you have not already saved backups in a different place or offline, do it immediately to protect data from damage. Step 4: Report the incident – Tell your IT department or security team about the attack. If you do not have an IT team, you might need help from a cybersecurity company. Also, tell the law enforcement agencies and any organizations you are a part of that might need to know. Step 5: Preserve evidence – Keep any evidence related to the ransomware attack. This might include ransom messages, emails, or system logs. This evidence can help the police and cybersecurity experts understand what happened and might help get your data back. Step 6: Remove the ransomware – IT or cybersecurity experts should be the ones to get rid of the ransomware. They have special tools and methods to remove ransomware. Experts will ensure that it does not cause more harm to your files or computers. Step 7: Restore your systems – After the ransomware is gone, you can start fixing your systems. If you had backups that were not affected by the attack, you might be able to restore your systems to their previous state. If not, you might need a professional service to recover your data. Step 8: Post-incident review – Review what happened and how you responded. Find any weak spots in your security that the attack exploited and make a plan to improve your safety. This step can help stop future attacks and strengthen your business’s cybersecurity. Schedule a Demo How does AlgoSec prevent and mitigate ransomware attacks?

- Multi-Cloud Security Network Policy and Configuration Management | AlgoSec
Manage multi-cloud security with effective policy and configuration strategies to ensure compliance, optimize performance, and protect your network infrastructure. Multi-Cloud Security Network Policy and Configuration Management Overview Taking advantage of cost and performance improvements, enterprises are extending their networks far beyond the traditional perimeter to incorporate multiple public and private clouds. Migration of applications to clouds has become an indispensable strategy for enterprises as clouds deliver many financial, performance and other advantages. Public clouds have become part of the computing fabric of millions of enterprises. Schedule a Demo Introduction Digitally transforming their businesses with numerous new applications, mobility and big data, enterprises are rapidly expanding their networks. Taking advantage of cost and performance improvements, enterprise networks extend way beyond the traditional perimeter and now incorporate software-defined networks (SDN), micro-segmentation and multiple clouds. The typical medium or large enterprise now manages a dynamic heterogeneous network that includes: Data centers Public clouds Private clouds Traditional network security policy management within the data center has always been challenging enough. Multiple firewalls from different vendors, thousands of rules and hundreds of weekly or monthly changes call for their own careful management and automation. But as the network estate becomes even wider and more complex, coherent security policy now has to extend across the entire heterogeneous network that includes multiple public clouds (e.g., AWS, MS Azure, Google Cloud Platform), each with its own language and methods. In the world of multi-cloud deployments, the need for cloud vendor-agnostic, holistic security policy automation becomes essential. In this paper, we will discuss the major security policy issues that concern enterprises as they expand their networks across multiple clouds. We will explain how AlgoSec delivers a comprehensive, unified, vendor-agnostic automation solution that enables security managers to reduce risk, improve compliance and boost efficiency across the heterogeneous network including multi-clouds. Schedule a Demo Where the data center meets the cloud In the data center, AlgoSec automates network security policy in device vendor-agnostic fashion—that is, it provides a unified console from which security teams can holistically manage security policy across multiple data centers and network segments that include many firewalls and other network devices. The AlgoSec solution is vendor-agnostic, enabling security teams to use a common security interface to handle policy management regardless of type of network device. The AlgoSec solution is able to tie security-policy management to business processes and applications, proactively assessing risk, and ensuring continuous compliance in addition to quick provisioning, change, migration and decommissioning of network connectivity for business applications. That businesses are migrating applications to private and public clouds doesn’t change anything for AlgoSec. Neither do virtualization nor multi-cloud deployments. In fact, the accelerating deployment of heterogeneous networks greatly increases the need for an automated Network Security Policy Management (NSPM) solution like AlgoSec. Schedule a Demo Migration to the cloud and virtualization – a growing trend The network landscape of today differs radically from what we knew only a few years ago. For a variety of quantifiable reasons that include productivity, agility and costs, enterprises are migrating their applications to public and private clouds. Public clouds Migration of applications to public clouds has become an indispensable strategy for enterprises as public clouds bring a great many advantages. The most popular of the public clouds, AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform, have become part of the computing fabric of millions of enterprises. Because of the proliferation of easy-to-use and cost-effective public clouds, enterprises leverage multiple cloud vendors. IDC estimates that nearly 80 percent of IT organizations are currently deploying, or are planning to deploy, multi-cloud environments. A study conducted by Microsoft and 451 Research, The Digital Revolution Powered by Cloud, stated that nearly a third of organizations already work with three or four cloud vendors. The embracing of the multi-cloud environment can be attributed to the advantages each cloud vendor has to offer such as unique functions, proximity and pricing models. Since application requirements can vary greatly and require specific functions and capabilities to operate optimally, matching them to specific cloud vendors is important. Various cloud environments offer the functions and tools that deliver the best capabilities for each application. Some public clouds excel in cost advantages, others in availability, still others in compute power. Businesses evaluate the advantages of each cloud to take advantage of the functions that will best support each application. Enterprises also worry about lock-in—a commitment to a single cloud vendor—that might turn them into a captive customer allowing that vendor to dictate the terms of service and costs. Businesses avoid lock-in by deploying applications across multiple clouds. Private clouds As enterprises transform digitally, their data and applications grow exponentially. Network managers are constantly challenged to re-consider the network infrastructure that will best support business needs now and into the foreseeable future. Today, private cloud is one of their main considerations. Private cloud is a type of cloud computing that delivers advantages similar to public cloud, including scalability and self-service, but through a proprietary architecture that the enterprises maintain themselves. While public clouds deliver services to any number of enterprises, a single enterprise establishes its own private cloud dedicated to its own needs. Therefore, private cloud is the best choice for enterprises who wish to control all the aspects of their computing and where it is easier to manage security and regulatory compliance. According to Market Research Future, the global private cloud market, although not as widely adopted as the public cloud, is still expected to grow explosively at 26% CAGR between 2017 and 2023 and reach a valuation of more than USD 50B by 2023. Get a demo Hybrid networks As a result of the distinct advantages and disadvantages of each type of cloud implementation, most enterprises utilize two or three types of environments: traditional data center processing, private clouds and public clouds; and in many cases, employing multiple vendors for the cloud environments. Taken together, they give rise to the heterogeneous network environment or hybrid network . Schedule a Demo Network security challenges in the hybrid network Running applications across the hybrid network can prove eminently useful for business teams but extraordinarily challenging for security teams. The complexity of the heterogeneous environment introduces a new level of security policy management challenges. We identify seven major challenges that must be addressed to ensure security and compliance across hybrid networks. 1. Visibility The more heterogenous the network, the more complex it becomes. Complexity is the enemy of security. Across the vast landscape of physical equipment, virtual firewalls, and public-cloud network security groups, security teams find it difficult to obtain a clear picture of application-connectivity requirements and overall network security. You can’t protect what you can’t see. Visibility is essential to security and rapid incident response. Obtaining full visibility across the entire hybrid network requires a deep understanding of the hybrid network’s topology and the flows between: On-premise networks and cloud providers Multiple public cloud environments VPCs and v-NETs Regions within the same cloud providers Cloud environments and the internet A study sponsored by Forbes surveyed professionals in enterprise IT departments about their cloud infrastructures. More than one-third said they lack visibility into their application operations in the public cloud. The independent market research company, Vanson Bourne, conducted a survey to investigate the state of network security. In Hide and Seek: Cybersecurity and the Cloud , two-thirds of respondents cited network “blind spots” as a major obstacle to effective data protection. Ixia’s recent survey of senior IT staff in various organizations regarding their cloud security concerns concurred. The top concern with cloud adoption was the ability to achieve full visibility. 2. Maintaining compliance posture Put bluntly, compliance is absolutely necessary for the business but is a nuisance for the IT staff. With the recent introduction of the GDPR and the growing body of legal and industrial regulations, compliance is taking up more and more effort and time from IT departments and especially security staff. Keeping up with the numerous regulations that are found in a growing number of geographies and industries is challenging enough in a single-cloud-provider environment. Compliance challenges multiply rapidly in heterogeneous environments due to: The need to apply compliance processes for each regulation for each network entity Service contract terms and SLAs across the estate Compliance methodologies that work for one cloud vendor don’t necessarily work for another Audits are point-in-time exercises, but most regulations require continuous compliance, tough to achieve in a dynamic environment Compliance needs to be documented for every entity and vendor, very tedious and time-consuming, and a drain on scant resources The essence of information security regulations such as PCI-DSS, GLBA and HIPAA is to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive information. While these regulations are addressed by the best practices that IT departments have continuously implemented for years, the challenges are rapidly expanding in the heterogeneous environment. Due to the chronic lack of IT and security staff, teams are incessantly pulled in different directions. In many cases, it’s gotten to the point where IT staff are busy putting out security and operational fires and have little time to perform critical strategic work such as addressing compliance issues at the network and cloud level. Multiple clouds just make the task that much harder. 3. Identifying and mitigating risks Due to the dynamic nature of the hybrid (on-prem and cloud) network, numerous changes to security policies are likely to ensue. These changes will be implemented on all the devices that direct traffic and will likely be performed by the multiple stakeholders involved in the hybrid network such as application developers and DevOps in addition to cloud and security teams. The ever-transforming environment necessitates close attention as risk may be introduced inadvertently by these changes. The risks within the complex hybrid-cloud estate will likely be too numerous and complex to be identified manually. Therefore, it’s imperative to obtain a dashboard that depicts all risks on a single screen. This dashboard should indicate the severity, the affected devices and rules, and the changes required to remediate each risk. The dashboard also requires the ability to notify pro-actively (via alarm) whenever the network is exposed to new risks. 4. Managing application connectivity The growing body of applications requires a complex, multi-tiered, distributed and interconnected architecture supported by elaborate communication paths that cross other applications, servers and databases. A Symantec analysis found that while most CIOs think their organizations use only 30 or 40 cloud applications , in fact, most have adopted an average of 928! Even if they get a grip on their current application volume, network and security teams can’t consider themselves in control. There are constant upgrades and changes, as well as new applications to deploy, connect and secure. Business users demand that they be up and running immediately while security is hard-pressed to keep up. Trying to manage application connectivity across on-premise, private and public clouds, each with multiple vendors, is prohibitively expensive in time and effort. 5. Managing policies Maintaining a clean set of firewall rules is a critical network-management function. Difficult enough in the data center, things really get out of hand when networks cross borders into the cloud. Private clouds add unique security controls such as ACI contracts and distributed firewalls. And each public cloud has its unique security controls such as cloud-native security groups, cloud-vendor firewalls (e.g., Azure firewall and AWS WAF), and 3rd-party cloud firewalls by the traditional firewall vendors (e.g., CloudGuard from Checkpoint and Palo Alto Networks’ VM series). The proliferation of security controls that make up the hybrid, multi-cloud network multiplies policy-management complexity. Maintaining a clean set of firewall rules is a critical firewall management function. Difficult enough in the data center, things really get out of hand when networks cross borders into the cloud. Adding more than one cloud further multiples the policy-management complexity. Unwieldy rulesets are not just a technical nuisance, they also introduce business risks, such as open ports, unneeded VPN tunnels and conflicting rules that create the backdoor entry points that hackers love. Bloated rulesets significantly complicate auditing processes that require the careful review of each rule and its related business justification. Examples of firewall rules that institute problems include: Unused rules Shadowed rules Expired rules Unattached objects (rules that refer to non-existent entities such as users who have left the company) Rules that are not ordered optimally (e.g., the rule that is “most hit” is near the bottom of the rule list) These problems drive organizations to take on ad hoc firewall “cleanup” or “recertification” projects. The problems are magnified in enterprises with: A large number of traditional physical firewalls Firewalls from multiple vendors (Checkpoint, Cisco, Palo Alto Networks) Different types of platforms (on-prem, private cloud, public cloud) Different types of security controls (traditional firewalls, security groups, etc.) Such complexities contribute to a lack of visibility, poor accountability, and undetected network breaches. They accumulate unnecessary costs for the business and waste precious IT time. Enterprises across the board are well aware of the need to get a handle on security controls. Research by ESG indicates that 70 percent of organizations plan to unify security controls for all server workloads across public clouds and on-premises resources over the next two years. 6. Enforcing security-policy consistency The only constant in today’s IT environment is change. Today, change occurs at a breakneck pace. As business needs transform (due to rapid business growth, mergers and acquisitions, new applications, decommissioning of old applications, new and departing users, evolving networks, new cyber threats), so must security policies—and fast. Managing change can lead to major headaches for IT, security and cloud management teams who try to enforce consistent security policies across the heterogenous network. Maintaining consistency across the hybrid and multi-cloud network meets with many problems such as: Each security entity has a different method of managing policy changes. Lack of intricate understanding of the proper management of changes for each security entity can lead to critical business risks as benign as legitimate traffic blockage all the way to the entire business network going offline. Manual workflows and change management processes that are unique for each security entity can substantially slow down the change process, impeding IT agility. Some enterprises with a very complex heterogeneous network are so concerned about change control and its potential negative impact that they may resort to network freezes during peak business times so as not to suffer inexplicable outages. Changes are slow. It can take several days—sometimes weeks—to process a single change in a complex enterprise environment. Enterprises may implement hundreds of changes each month. It’s difficult to assess the risk of a proposed change. The change process in a hybrid network involves disparate teams (security, networking, cloud, business owners). These teams speak different languages and have different objectives. They lack a unifying factor. 7. Handling multiple management consoles Each cloud vendor provides its own console that facilitates the day-to-day management of its cloud accounts and provides services such as monitoring cloud-resource usage, calculating current costs and managing security credentials. In addition, each firewall vendor offers its own unique management console for managing all of its devices. Each vendor’s console comes with its own language and GUI. To make network-wide policy changes that span firewalls and clouds, security staff must access multiple consoles forcing enterprises to employ a legion of experts just to implement even a simple change. Changes have to be meticulously coordinated across the many management consoles slowing down progress and introducing potential for errors. 8. Lack of skilled staff with cloud-security knowledge Despite all the advancements we have made in network security in recent years, enterprises still endure regular cyberattacks that continue to cause billions of dollars in damages. Effective network security professionals are now more important than ever. Yet, despite the urgent need (and handsome salaries), the world suffers from a severe scarcity in able and certified personnel. According to a recent McAfee study titled The ramifications of the skills shortage on cloud security, IT leaders need to increase their security staffs by 24% to adequately manage their current threat landscape. But these people are simply not available. The absence of adequately trained security professionals leaves gaps in many aspects of modern-day security infrastructure. In their report on security deficiencies , ESG found that 33% of responders indicated that their biggest deficiency was cloud security specialists followed by 28% who pointed to a deficiency in network security specialists and 27% who suffer a shortage of security analysts. A security officer with expertise in any cloud environment needs to be familiar with the best practices of incident response and must also be proficient in cloud security practices such as identity access management (IAM), deployment automation and cloud regulatory compliance. The requisite qualifications are amplified when the same officer needs to manage multiple cloud vendors. As security varies with each vendor, the multi-cloud security officer must know the security nuances of each cloud vendor and stay up to date with the ongoing security advancements of each. It is practically impossible to find such people. Many network and cloud security positions remain unfilled forcing organizations to compromise.
