Leading Bank Transforms Digitalization Journey With AlgoSec Organization Leading Bank Industry Financial Services Headquarters United States Download case study Share Customer
success stories "AlgoSec is like a person sitting in my bank taking care of everything - simplifying day-to-day operations and reducing human errors because everything is automated.” Background Background The bank is a full-service commercial bank headquartered in India. It offers a wide range of banking and financial products for corporate and retail customers through retail banking and asset management services. The bank offers personal, corporate, and internet banking services including accounts, deposits, credit cards, home loans, and personal loans. The Challenges The client’s key issues related to the management of the firewalls, dealing with rule duplication and human errors. Their network security operations teams were hampered by manual, slow, and error-prone security change-management processes. It often took around four days to process a single change across their complex network environment. The frequent errors that arose from manual processes opened security gaps and put them at risk of cyberattacks. Some of their challenges included: Human errors leading to misconfiguration – The organization was handling over 30 firewalls and 30 to 40 rules in a day across multiple firewalls. They lacked the skilled resources to implement these rule changes. This led to errors and misconfigurations. Lack of visibility – They lacked visibility into their overall network and traffic flows and failed to understand which rules applied to each firewall. Duplicate rules – They had many duplicate firewall policies, negatively impacting performance. Policy optimization – The organization required policies to be frequently optimized. Lack of visibility – The organization needed visibility across their networks, allowing them to quickly find and fix issues. Time-consuming manual change management processes. Solution The organization looked for a partner that understood their challenges, could integrate into their existing solutions, and could take full responsibility for any issues. In the words of the bank’s executive vice president, “ We were looking for a partner, not a product.” The key factors that the bank was looking for were: Alignment with their digital transformation vision – They wanted to align with key stakeholders among business, operations, network, and security teams. Automation as a key focus – Automation was important to reduce human errors, align with the considerable number of requests and adapt to the agile nature of critical applications. With automation, they were looking to implement firewall changes faster. Easy to use and integrate within the existing infrastructure. Unified view of their multi-vendor firewall estate – They wanted a single console where they could see all their firewalls, understand their collective risk, and gain a holistic view of the current state of their firewall policies. As a result, the customer implemented the AlgoSec Security Management Solution. Results: The AlgoSec Security Management Solution transformed the bank’s digitalization journey, leading to: Time to implement rule changes decreased from 4-5 days to less than 48 hours – a 60% reduction. Automatically implemented changes – Changes are automatically implemented, without needing to guess which rules and devices are in path. Reduced human error and elimination of repetitive, manual tasks. Simplified daily operations. Automated change management across application-centric infrastructure. Identified and mitigated risks. Transformed digitization journey. AlgoSec now has end-to-end visibility of which firewall it needs to implement the changes on. The bank was in the process of switching from a traditional infrastructure to Cisco ACI. The transition was smooth. AlgoSec seamlessly integrated into Cisco ACI and their existing Palo Alto Network devices. “I think we are the first in India who approached AlgoSec and got these solutions implemented – getting Cisco ACI, Palo Alto, and AlgoSec working hand in hand with full integration. This is the best thing we’ve seen till now,” noted the vice president. Looking ahead, they plan to extend AlgoSec’s offering, mapping rule applications, and other capabilities to help them migrate to the cloud. Schedule time with one of our experts

Network Change Management (NCM) is the process of planning, testing, and approving changes to a network infrastructure. The goal is to minimize network disruptions by following standardized procedures for controlled network changes. NCM, or network configuration and change management (NCCM), is all about staying connected and keeping things in check. When done the right way, it lets IT teams seamlessly roll out and track change requests, and boost the network’s overall performance and safety. There are 2 main approaches to implementing NCM: manual and automated. Manual NCM is a popular choice that’s usually complex and time-consuming. A poor implementation may yield faulty or insecure configurations causing disruptions or potential noncompliance. These setbacks can cause application outages and ultimately need extra work to resolve. Fortunately, specialized solutions like the AlgoSec platform and its Horizon FireFlow solution exist to address these concerns. With inbuilt intelligent automation, these solutions make NCM easier as they cut out errors and rework usually tied to manual NCM. The network change management process The network change management process is a structured approach that organizations use to manage and implement changes to their network infrastructure. When networks are complex with many interdependent systems and components, change needs to be managed carefully to avoid unintended impacts. A systematic NCM process is essential to make the required changes promptly, minimize risks associated with network modifications, ensure compliance, and maintain network stability. The most effective NCM process leverages an automated NCM solution like the intelligent automation provided by the AlgoSec platform to streamline effort, reduce the risks of redundant changes, and curtail network outages and downtime. The key steps involved in the network change management process are: Step 1: Security policy development and documentation Creating a comprehensive set of security policies involves identifying the organization’s specific security requirements, relevant regulations, and industry best practices. These policies and procedures help establish baseline configurations for network devices. They govern how network changes should be performed – from authorization to execution and management. They also document who is responsible for what, how critical systems and information are protected, and how backups are planned. In this way, they address various aspects of network security and integrity, such as access control , encryption, incident response, and vulnerability management. Step 2: Change the request A formal change request process streamlines how network changes are requested and approved. Every proposed change is clearly documented, preventing the implementation of ad-hoc or unauthorized changes. Using an automated tool ensures that every change complies with the regulatory standards relevant to the organization, such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, NIST FISMA, etc. This tool should be able to send automated notifications to relevant stakeholders, such as the Change Advisory Board (CAB), who are required to validate and approve normal and emergency changes (see below). Step 3: Change Implementation Standard changes – those implemented using a predetermined process, need no validation or testing as they’re already deemed low- or no-risk. Examples include installing a printer or replacing a user’s laptop. These changes can be easily managed, ensuring a smooth transition with minimal disruption to daily operations. On the other hand, normal and emergency changes require testing and validation, as they pose a more significant risk if not implemented correctly. Normal changes, such as adding a new server or migrating from on-premises to the cloud, entail careful planning and execution. Emergency changes address urgent issues that could introduce risks if not resolved promptly, like failing to install security patches or software upgrades, which may leave networks vulnerable to zero-day exploits and cyberattacks. Testing uncovers these potential risks, such as network downtime or new vulnerabilities that increase the likelihood of a malware attack. Automated network change management (NCM) solutions streamline simple changes, saving time and effort. For instance, AlgoSec’s firewall policy cleanup solution optimizes changes related to firewall policies, enhancing efficiency. Documenting all implemented changes is vital, as it maintains accountability and service level agreements (SLAs) while providing an audit trail for optimization purposes. The documentation should outline the implementation process, identified risks, and recommended mitigation steps. Network teams must establish monitoring systems to continuously review performance and flag potential issues during change implementation. They must also set up automated configuration backups for devices like routers and firewalls ensuring that organizations can recover from change errors and avoid expensive downtime. Step 4: Troubleshooting and rollbacks Rollback procedures are important because they provide a way to restore the network to its original state (or the last known “good” configuration) if the proposed change could introduce additional risk into the network or deteriorate network performance. Some automated tools include ready-to-use templates to simplify configuration changes and rollbacks. The best platforms use a tested change approval process that enables organizations to avoid bad, invalid, or risky configuration changes before they can be deployed. Troubleshooting is also part of the NCM process. Teams must be trained in identifying and resolving network issues as they emerge, and in managing any incidents that may result from an implemented change. They must also know how to roll back changes using both automated and manual methods. Step 5: Network automation and integration Automated network change management (NCM) solutions streamline and automate key aspects of the change process, such as risk analysis, implementation, validation, and auditing. These automated solutions prevent redundant or unauthorized changes, ensuring compliance with applicable regulations before deployment. Multi-vendor configuration management tools eliminate the guesswork in network configuration and change management. They empower IT or network change management teams to: Set real-time alerts to track and monitor every change Detect and prevent unauthorized, rogue, and potentially dangerous changes Document all changes, aiding in SLA tracking and maintaining accountability Provide a comprehensive audit trail for auditors Execute automatic backups after every configuration change Communicate changes to all relevant stakeholders in a common “language” Roll back undesirable changes as needed AlgoSec’s NCM platform can also be integrated with IT service management (ITSM) and ticketing systems to improve communication and collaboration between various teams such as IT operations and admins. Infrastructure as code (IaC) offers another way to automate network change management. IaC enables organizations to “codify” their configuration specifications in config files. These configuration templates make it easy to provision, distribute, and manage the network infrastructure while preventing ad-hoc, undocumented, or risky changes. Risks associated with network change management Network change management is a necessary aspect of network configuration management. However, it also introduces several risks that organizations should be aware of. Network downtime The primary goal of any change to the network should be to avoid unnecessary downtime. Whenever these network changes fail or throw errors, there’s a high chance of network downtime or general performance. Depending on how long the outage lasts, it usually results in users losing productive time and loss of significant revenue and reputation for the organization. IT service providers may also have to monitor and address potential issues, such as IP address conflicts, firmware upgrades, and device lifecycle management. Human errors Manual configuration changes introduce human errors that can result in improper or insecure device configurations. These errors are particularly prevalent in complex or large-scale changes and can increase the risk of unauthorized or rogue changes. Security issues Manual network change processes may lead to outdated policies and rulesets, heightening the likelihood of security concerns. These issues expose organizations to significant threats and can cause inconsistent network changes and integration problems that introduce additional security risks. A lack of systematic NCM processes can further increase the risk of security breaches due to weak change control and insufficient oversight of configuration files, potentially allowing rogue changes and exposing organizations to various cyberattacks. Compliance issues Poor NCM processes and controls increase the risk of non-compliance with regulatory requirements. This can potentially result in hefty financial penalties and legal liabilities that may affect the organization’s bottom line, reputation, and customer relationships. Rollback failures and backup issues Manual rollbacks can be time-consuming and cumbersome, preventing network teams from focusing on higher-value tasks. Additionally, a failure to execute rollbacks properly can lead to prolonged network downtime. It can also lead to unforeseen issues like security flaws and exploits. For network change management to be effective, it’s vital to set up automated backups of network configurations to prevent data loss, prolonged downtime, and slow recovery from outages. Troubleshooting issues Inconsistent or incorrect configuration baselines can complicate troubleshooting efforts. These wrong baselines increase the chances of human error, which leads to incorrect configurations and introduces security vulnerabilities into the network.

Auditing and Compliance 4 tips to manage your external network connections Joanne Godfrey 2 min read Joanne Godfrey Short bio about author here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur. Vitae donec tincidunt elementum quam laoreet duis sit enim. Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 8/10/15 Published Last week our CTO, Professor Avishai Wool, presented a technical webinar on the do’s and don’ts for managing external connectivity to and from your network . We kicked off our webinar by polling the audience (186 people) on how many external permanent connections into their enterprise network they have. 40% have less than 50 external connections 31% have 50-250 external connections 24% have more than 250 external connections 5% wish they knew how many external connections they have! Clearly this is a very relevant issue for many enterprises, and one which can have a profound effect on security. The webinar covered a wide range of best practices for managing the external connectivity lifecycle and I highly recommend that you view the full presentation. But in the meantime, here are a few key issues that you should be mindful of when considering how to manage external connectivity to and from your network: Network Segmentation While there has to be an element of trust when you let an external partner into your network, you must do all you can to protect your organization from attacks through these connections. These include placing your servers in a demilitarized zone (DMZ), segregating them by firewalls, restricting traffic in both directions from the DMZ as well as using additional controls such as web application firewalls, data leak prevention and intrusion detection. Regulatory Compliance Bear in mind that if the data being accessed over the external connection is regulated, both your systems and the related peer’s systems are now subject t. So if the network connection touches credit card data, both sides of the connection are in scope, and outsourcing the processing and management of regulated data to a partner does not let you off the hook. Maintenance Sometimes you will have to make changes to your external connections, either due to planned maintenance work by your IT team or the peer’s team, or as a result of unplanned outages. Dealing with changes that affect external connections is more complicated than internal maintenance, as it will probably require coordinating with people outside your organisation and tweaking existing workflows, while adhering to any contractual or SLA obligations. As part of this process, remember that you’ll need to ensure that your information systems allow your IT teams to recognize external connections and provide access to the relevant technical information in the contract, while supporting the amended workflows. Contracts In most cases there is a contract that governs all aspects of the external connection – including technical and business issues. The technical points will include issues such as IP addresses and ports, technical contact points, SLAs, testing procedures and the physical location of servers. It’s important, therefore, that this contract is adhered to whenever dealing with technical issues related to external connections. These are just a few tips and issues to be aware of.

Are you tired of playing whack-a-mole with cloud security risks? Do endless compliance reports and alert fatigue leave you feeling... Cloud Security Unleash the Power of Application-Level Visibility: Your Secret Weapon for Conquering Cloud Chaos Asher Benbenisty 2 min read Asher Benbenisty Short bio about author here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur. Vitae donec tincidunt elementum quam laoreet duis sit enim. Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 7/22/24 Published Are you tired of playing whack-a-mole with cloud security risks? Do endless compliance reports and alert fatigue leave you feeling overwhelmed? It's time to ditch the outdated, reactive approach and embrace a new era of cloud security that's all about proactive visibility . The Missing Piece: Understanding Your Cloud Applications Imagine this: you have a crystal-clear view of every application running in your cloud environment. You know exactly which resources they're using, what permissions they have, and even the potential security risks they pose. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, it's not just possible – it's essential. Why? Because applications are the beating heart of your business. They're what drive your revenue, enable your operations, and store your valuable data. But they're also complex, interconnected, and constantly changing, making them a prime target for attackers. Gain the Upper Hand with Unbiased Cloud Discovery Don't settle for partial visibility or rely on your cloud vendor's limited tools. You need an unbiased, automated cloud discovery solution that leaves no stone unturned. With it, you can: Shine a Light on Shadow IT: Uncover all those rogue applications running without your knowledge, putting your organization at risk. Visualize the Big Picture: See the intricate relationships between your applications and their resources, making it easy to identify vulnerabilities and attack paths. Assess Risk with Confidence: Get a clear understanding of the security posture of each application, so you can prioritize your efforts and focus on the most critical threats. Stay Ahead of the Game: Continuously monitor your environment for changes, so you're always aware of new risks and vulnerabilities. From Reactive to Proactive: Turn Your Cloud into a Fortress Application-level visibility isn't just about compliance or passing an audit (though it certainly helps with those!). It's about fundamentally changing how you approach cloud security. By understanding your applications at a deeper level, you can: Prioritize with Precision: Focus your remediation efforts on the applications and risks that matter most to your business. Respond with Agility: Quickly identify and address vulnerabilities before they're exploited. Prevent Attacks Before They Happen: Implement proactive security measures, like tightening permissions and enforcing security policies, to stop threats in their tracks. Empower Your Teams: Give your security champions the tools they need to effectively manage risk and ensure the continuous security of your cloud environment. The cloud is an ever-changing landscape, but with application-level visibility as your guiding light, you can confidently navigate the challenges and protect your organization from harm. Don't be left in the dark – embrace the power of application understanding and take your cloud security to the next level!
