Firewall and Router rule set review

Our firewall and router rule set review service helps to clean up any unneeded, outdated, or incorrect rules, and ensure that all rule sets allow only authorized services and ports that match the documented business justifications

Secure the first lines of defense

Firewall or Router serve as the first lines of defense protecting an organization’s network infrastructure from an external attacker. If the network perimeter defense system is weak, an organization could face considerable risk of being compromised.

Firewall and Router Rule set review comprises of a line-by-line analysis of the device configuration for industry best practices that are taken from the Center for Internet Security, NIST, the DoD, and vendor-specific guidelines. This will also examine vendor specific vulnerabilities, ingress and egress access controls, logging and auditing, and system management.

Well-defined, repeatable, and consistent methodology

We review the firewall and router device configuration, looking at industry best practices and hardening techniques, and interprets the rulesets by understanding the overall company architecture and will:

Review the firewall configuration file for the identification and protection of all network segments
Review the processes and mechanisms for a security model that denies access by default
Review the implementation of open ports and services for all access points to the external presence
Review the documentation of those entries and the configuration of those ports and services
Identify the implementations of banners, access controls, and appropriate use policies
Review the implementation of processes for monitoring and logging access at access points to the network
Review controls for default accounts, passwords, and network management community strings
Review all ingress/egress points within the network
Identify best practices implementation and lack of hardening techniques
