Diamonds Are The Firewall Administrator’s Best Friend

Following on from his recent Security Management 201 video which provides some key tips to help you easily define, simplify and enforce network segmentation and security zoning, Professor Wool has now produced a new video on how to structure your security policy in a segmented network.

In this video, Professor Wool presents a simple yet highly effective strategy to help you future proof your network segmentation policy against future changes. Using the concept of a diamond, Prof Wool shows how you can define very specific firewall rules at each end point of the diamond and broader policies in the middle. This will significantly reduce the time and effort needed to work on change requests—without compromising on security in any way.
