Webinars Firewall Rule Recertification - An Application-Centric Approach As part of your organization’s security policy management best practices, firewall rules must be reviewed and recertified regularly to ensure security, compliance and optimal firewall performance. Firewall rules which are out of date, unused or unnecessary should be removed, as firewall bloat creates gaps in your security posture, causes compliance violations, and impacts firewall performance. Manual firewall rule recertification, however, is an error-prone and time-consuming process. Please join our webinar by Asher Benbenisty, AlgoSec’s Director of Product Marketing, who will introduce an application-centric approach to firewall recertification, bringing a new, efficient, effective and automated method of recertifying firewall rules. The webinar will: Why it is important to regularly review and recertify your firewall rules The application-centric approach to firewall rule recertification How to automatically manage the rule-recertification process Want to find out more about the importance of ruleset hygiene?

success stories "AlgoSec enables us to identify ways to consolidate and optimize rules and perform deep risk analysis and automate workflows in ways that other products cannot match" Background Techcombank is one of the largest joint stock commercial banks in Vietnam. With more than 300 branches and 7,000 staff, Techcombank provides deposit products, loans, leasing, cash management and other services to more than 3.3 million individual customers and 45,000 corporate clients. Challenge Tens of firewall devices and hundreds of routers and switches protect the financial data of Techcombank’s customers, as well as the operations of hundreds of branches throughout Vietnam. As a bank, all security policies and firewall configurations must comply with PCI-DSS and ISO27001 standards. Ensuring compliance, however, created ongoing headaches for the IT security team. “With equipment from many different vendors, even simple policy audits were challenging tasks,” says Mr. Van Anh Tuan, CSO of Techcombank. “As a result of the diversity of products and lack of visibility, it was difficult for us to monitor changes to rule configurations in real time in order to maintain internal security compliance as well as PCI compliance.” “Cleaning up and fine tuning firewall policies was a particularly complex process, which made it difficult to respond quickly to the changing needs of our business applications,” adds Mr. Tuan. “We wanted a way to optimize and consolidate rules across all of our firewalls, regardless of manufacturer, and completely automate the end-to-end workflow for firewall rule change management.” In addition, Techcombank sought a solution that would simplify the process of conducting risk analysis, evaluating PCI compliance and identifying the necessary steps for remediation. Solution Following an in-depth competitive evaluation, Techcombank selected AlgoSec’s Security Management solution. “AlgoSec met many of our key requirements, better than its competitors in our evaluation,” Mr. Tuan notes. Techcombank particularly liked AlgoSec’s superior security policy analysis and ability to make actionable recommendations with a high level of accuracy. “AlgoSec will enable us to identify ways to consolidate and optimize rules, perform deep risk analysis, automate workflows and ensure compliance in ways that other products cannot match,” says Mr. Tuan. Techcombank’s IT team wants to be able to quickly identify security policy risks and see what specific steps they need to take for remediation. The bank uses AlgoSec to identify overly permissive firewall rules based on actual use as well as duplicate, unused and expired rules and objects. This information gives Techcombank the data they need to close off potential access points and help prevent attacks. AlgoSec also provides clear, detailed recommendations on how to best reorder rules for optimal firewall performance. In addition, AlgoSec validates firewall policy and rules against regulations such as PCI, as well as industry best practices and customized corporate policies to uncover and prioritize risks and track trends over time. For Mr. Tuan, one of the most valuable benefits of AlgoSec is the increased visibility into security policies across the full range of devices. “Now we can easily monitor our firewall operations and quickly detect any mistakes or non-compliant changes made. These operations used to be invisible to me.” Mr. Tuan comments. The AlgoSec deployment process went very smoothly for Techcombank. “Our team received training from AlgoSec and their partners here in Vietnam and we were fully utilizing the product almost immediately. Post-implementation support has addressed every issue quickly and enabled us to take advantage of all aspects of the product in order to optimize our firewall rules and improve our security posture even faster than we anticipated,” Mr. Tuan adds. Since implementation, AlgoSec has enabled Techcombank’s IT team to “greatly reduce our time and resources when complying with internal policies and PCI standards, and when monitoring changes in rules,” says Mr. Tuan. “We are very happy with the improved security and visibility provided by AlgoSec and will continue to use and exploit more AlgoSec features and add licenses,” he concluded.

Firewalls and infrastructure did not get the care and attention they needed. As a result, some of their challenges included: Legacy firewalls that had not been adequately maintained Difficulty identifying and quantifying network risk Lack of oversight and analysis of the changes made by their Managed Services Security Provider (MSSP) Change requests for functionality that was already covered by existing rules The Solution The customer was searching for a solution that provided: A strong local presence Repeatable and recordable change management processes As a result, the customer implemented AlgoSec. The client selected AlgoSec’s Security Policy Management Solution, which includes AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer and AlgoSec FireFlow.

Best practices for network security governance in AWS and hybrid network environments Webinars Turning Network Security Alerts into Action: Change Automation to the Rescue You use multiple network security controls in your organization, but they don’t talk to each other. And while you may get alerts that come with tools such as SIEM solutions and vulnerability scanners – in your security landscape, making the necessary changes to proactively react to the myriad of alerts is difficult. Responding to alerts feels like a game of whack-a-mole. Manual changes are also error-prone, resulting in misconfigurations. It’s clear that manual processes are insufficient for your multi-device, multi-vendor, and heterogeneous environment network landscape. What’s the solution? Network security change automation! By implementing change automation for your network security policies across your enterprise security landscape you can continue to use your existing business processes while enhancing business agility, accelerate incident response times, and reduce the risk of compliance violations and security misconfigurations. In this webinar, Dania Ben Peretz, Product Manager at AlgoSec, shows you how to: Automate your network security policy changes without breaking core network connectivity Analyze and recommend changes to your network security policies Push network security policy changes with zero-touch automation to your multi-vendor security devices Maximize the ROI of your existing security controls by automatically analyzing, validating, and implementing network security policy changes – all while seamlessly integrating with your existing business processes April 7, 2020 Dania Ben Peretz Product Manager Relevant resources Network firewall security management See Documentation Simplify and Accelerate Large-scale Application Migration Projects Read Document Choose a better way to manage your network Choose a better way to manage your network Work email* First name* Last name* Company* country* Select country...
