The NIST Cybersecurity Framework as well as other NIST security standards help set clear best practices for organizational cyber and network security NIST standards & cybersecurity framework explained The National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) is a US government agency, under the Commerce Department, whose mission is to set several types of standards, including security standards. Some NIST data security standards include NIST 800-53, which offers security controls and privacy controls in the areas of application security, mobile, and cloud computing, and supply chain security, NIST 800-53/FI, which establishes standards to implement FISMA , NIST 800-30, which provides guidelines for conducting risk assessments, NIST 800-171, pertaining to the physical security of data centers, and ISO 27001 . White Paper Solution Overview Understanding the NIST Cybersecurity Framework One of the most widely used NIST security standard is the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF). This internationally recognized framework offers voluntary guidance, based on existing standards, guidelines, and practices for organizations to better manage and reduce cybersecurity risk. It provides companies with an easy-to-understand common language for talking about cybersecurity risk, no matter where they are on the org chart – from the server room to the board room. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework identifies five core functions: Identify Protect Detect Respond Recover The framework describes desired outcomes that are understandable by everyone, applies to any kind of risk management, defines the entire breath of cybersecurity, and spans both prevention and reaction. Webinar Infographic FAQ ABOUT NIST CYBERSECURITY STANDARDS Understanding NIST Cybersecurity Standards is a crucial part of your network security compliance posture. There are many international regulations that your organization needs to be compliant with, including HIPPA , PCI DSS , GDPR , NIST , ISO 27001, and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX). Do the NIST Cybersecurity Standards provide a checklist of what all organization should do? No. The framework provides guidance that should be customized by different organizations to best suit their unique risks, situations, and needs. Organizations have different risks, threats, vulnerabilities, and risk tolerance. They will also differ in how they implement the practices in the framework. It should not be implemented as an un-customized checklist or take a one-size-fits-all approach How does my firewall management help with NIST Standards and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework? NIST Special Publication 800-41 establishes guidelines for firewalls and firewall policies, which govern standards and best practices for firewall policy management. According to the guidelines, an organization’s firewall policies should be based on a comprehensive risk-assessment. Firewall policies should be based on blocking all inbound and outbound traffic (“Default Deny”), with exceptions made for desired traffic. Policies should consider the source and destination of the traffic, in addition to the content. Many types of IPv4 traffic, such as those with invalid or private addresses, should be blocked by default. Organizations also should have policies for handling incoming and outgoing IPv6 traffic. Organizations should also determine which applications may send traffic into and out of its network and make firewall policies to block traffic for other applications. According to the guidelines (5.2.2), “if multiple firewalls need to have the same rules or a common subset of rules, those rules should be synchronized across the firewalls. This is usually done in a vendor-specific fashion.” AlgoSec provides out-of-the-box regulatory compliance reports for NIST SP 800-41. What about NIST SP 800-53? NIST SP 800-53, Security and Privacy Controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations, relates to systems, including firewalls, that monitor and control at the external boundaries of the network and systems that connect to parts of the network. It provides extensive standards for firewall management. AlgoSec provides out-of-the-box regulatory compliance reports for NIST SP 800-53. Do NIST standards also relate to FISMA compliance? How AlgoSec Helps with NIST Standards? FISMA sets out guidelines for managing information security that must be followed for all information systems used or operated by a U.S. federal government agency in the executive or legislative branches, or by a contractor or other organization on behalf of a federal agency in those branches. By following NIST Cybersecurity Guidelines and NIST’s guidelines for firewalls and firewall policies, organizations get closer to FISMA compliance. AlgoSec helps identify traffic flows and associate it with the relevant business applications, and design firewall policies that work across your hybrid network, all with zero-touch automation to reduce the chances of manual misconfigurations. AlgoSec also helps manage and synchronize rules across the multi-vendor estate, so there is holistic and unified management across a network made up of multiple vendors. By using AlgoSec, organizations can be sure that their security management practices follow best practices such as NIST standards. AlgoSec automatically generates pre-populated, audit-ready compliance reports for leading industry regulations, including NIST SP 800-53, NIST SP 800-41, SOX, GLBA, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001— which helps reduce audit preparation efforts and costs. AlgoSec also uncovers gaps in organization’s compliance posture and proactively checks every change for compliance violations. AlgoSec also provides daily audit and compliance reporting across the entire heterogeneous network estate. What are some common regulations that customers must be compliance with?

SANOFI FINDS THE CURE FOR TIME-CONSUMING APPLICATION MIGRATION WITH ALGOSEC Organization Sanofi Industry Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals Headquarters Paris, France Download case study Share Customer
success stories "Using AlgoSec during our data center migration allowed us to give technical project leaders access to all of the rules involved in the migration of their applications, which reduced the IT security team’s time on these projects by 80%. The application was very useful, simple to use and made everybody happy." AlgoSec Business Impact Simplify data center migration projects Reduce rule migration process time by 80% Streamline and improve firewall operations Background A multinational pharmaceutical company, Sanofi, has 112 industrial sites in 41 countries and operations in more than 100 countries. The company’s 110,000 employees are committed to protecting health, enhancing life, providing hope and responding to the potential healthcare needs of seven billion people around the world. Challenge The sensitive nature of Sanofi’s business and its wide ranging global operations require an extensive and well secured network, which currently has 120 firewalls all over the world. In the midst of a data center consolidation project, the company needed to understand how its security devices would be affected by application migrations. Sanofi was also eager to improve change management processes and gain key performance indicators (KPIs) for risk analysis.“Our main concern with the data center consolidation project was to enable various technical project leaders to see the different rules impacting the migration of their applications, and to avoid any outages. For that, we needed pre-migration and post-migration documentation on security,” says Bruno Roulleau, Network Security Architect at Sanofi. “We also needed metrics on the risk associated with different policies on the firewalls.” Solution When looking for a solution, Sanofi evaluated several vendors. “A key point for us was the ability to easily integrate the security devices in our current infrastructure, into the solution. We also wanted detailed reporting that would allow us to delegate policy management to project leaders,” Roulleau notes.Because Sanofi constantly upgrades its devices, its systems need to evolve and incorporate the new devices and rules seamlessly. “We chose the AlgoSec Security Management solution because its graphical interface is very user-friendly, it easily supports new devices and generates detailed reports and metrics on risks,” says Roulleau.Sanofi also appreciated AlgoSec’s flexibility. “AlgoSec is very open to developing new capabilities. We can ask to have some new features available by a certain date and they will deliver on time,” according to Roulleau. For a company with a complex network and rapidly evolving security needs, that responsiveness proved key to the decision to go with AlgoSec. Results Sanofi’s security team is now able to delegate responsibility for rule changes both during migration and on an ongoing basis. “Using AlgoSec during our data center migration allowed us to give technical project leaders access to all of the rules involved in the migration of their applications, which reduced the IT security team’s time on these projects by 80%. The application was very useful, simple to use and made everybody happy,” Roulleau says.Additionally, with AlgoSec’s reports Sanofi can now easily and clearly document the status of their firewalls as well as the impact of any changes on the network throughout the migration project. “We can now generate detailed reports in just three clicks!” Roulleau adds.Furthermore, AlgoSec’s optimization reports enabled Sanofi to clean up its security policies. Because they could clearly see all of the rules and their impact on network security, Roulleau’s team was able to safely eliminate unused and duplicate rules, which increased the efficiency of the firewalls. Those reports also provided insight into the risks associated with the current system and various changes being made. Schedule time with one of our experts

Global Transport Company Moves Firewall Changes Faster Organization Global Transport Industry Transportation Headquarters International Download case study Share Customer
success stories "Automation is definitely the way to go. We can now stay on top of the process even while we migrate our firewalls" Background A global transport and logistics company operates in nearly 100 countries and employs 50,000 people. From its 1000 offices, the company manages supply-chain solutions for thousands of customers all over the world each and every day. Found in virtually every industry, customers range from large international companies that require transportation services by sea and air to medium size business that ship mainly over the road. In addition, the company offers warehousing solutions on every continent to help customers with their logistics. Challenges Operating four major data centers on four continents, the security team’s daily tasks had become overwhelming. For the last several years, the company invested heavily in its rapidly growing IT and network security staff, but at its current size and level of activity, finding enough experienced staffers was practically impossible and too expensive to sustain. The only way forward was a network security automation solution that would: Automate many of the daily change requests across the 50+ firewalls, saving time so that IT and security staffers could work on other critical tasks Eliminate errors in firewall rules Demonstrate the ability to work with Cisco FirePower NGFW in the future The company also presented a special challenge in the form of its already-existing deployment of Cisco Bridge Virtual Interface (BVI) devices. The BVIs essentially act as Layer 2 firewalls. Since they, too, store firewall rules, they have to be included in the automation process. Solution The company brought in three leading Network Security Policy Management (NSPM) solutions to compete in a three-month proof-of-concept contest. The combination of AlgoSec Horizon Security Analyzer (AFA) and AlgoSec Global Transport (AFF) stood above the rest. AlgoSec Horizon Security Analyzer ensures security and compliance by providing visibility and analysis into complex network security policies. AlgoSec Global Transport improves security and saves security staffs’ time by automating the entire security policy change process, eliminating manual errors, and reducing risk. Results The two AlgoSec products, Horizon Security Analyzer and Global Transport went into production in mid-2018 where they have been working ever since, with the following results: Usability was outstanding—the products integrate well and are easy to learn and operate Single-pane-of-glass visibility across the network was suddenly available and useful to the network security staff The automation demonstrated the ability to slash the time required to push firewall changes and to eliminate errors The company found AlgoSec’s Tier 3 support to be impressive. Working directly with Tier 3 personnel and the ever-eager AlgoSec developers, the company’s Senior Technology Architect and other senior security analysts were able to work closely with AlgoSec to solve the BVI conundrum and implement the entire AlgoSec solution.

Atruvia (formerly Fiducia IT AG) Reduces Security Risks For Banks With Algosec Organization Atruvia Industry Technology Headquarters Karlsruhe, Deutschland Download case study Share Customer
success stories "AlgoSec’s Security Management Solution is incredibly powerful. Its intelligent process improvements have directly translated into the highest level of security and compliance for our customers’ networks" Background With over 45 years’ experience in the banking sector, Atruvia ( formerly Fiducia IT AG) is one of the top ten IT providers in Germany. Today, Atruvia manages the IT networks of nearly 1,100 banks, constituting more than 100,000 PC workstations, 6,600 servers and 25,000 self-service banking terminals. Responsible for ensuring the smooth and secure processing of more than 16 billion transactions per year for its customers, Atruvia’s risk mitigation and regulatory compliance strategies are of utmost importance. Challenge To protect its customer networks, Atruvia implemented a number of security solutions, including 60 Check Point and 20 Juniper firewall clusters. However, managing multiple firewalls in a multi-vendor environment proved challenging. “Performing vulnerability assessments for such a large and complex firewall environment was extremely time-consuming, labor-intensive and prone to human error,” says Lutz Bleyer, Atruvia’s Chief Information Security Officer. With multiple stakeholders at each of its client organizations, Atruvia required a structured change management process to prevent firewall policies from growing unmanageable and creating security risks. “We needed a proven firewall management and workflow solution to eliminate potential security risks while providing us with complete visibility into our customer networks, anytime, anywhere,” says Bleyer. Solution After an in-depth analysis, Atruvia chose the AlgoSec Security Management Solution to optimize its security, compliance and change management processes. “AlgoSec provided the most comprehensive, intelligent automation solution for our firewall operations, helping us increase efficiency while improving risk mitigation and compliance,” says Bleyer. Results AlgoSec’s topology-aware technology provides Atruvia with complete visibility into the security landscape of its customers’ networks. “AlgoSec’s in-depth visibility enables us to easily create a hierarchy profile and establish a competency baseline of operations for each networks’ firewalls, even when multiple vendor technologies are involved,” says Bleyer. Atruvia’s security consultants and auditors are now closely aligned with their customers’ IT teams, regardless of their location. “The level of visibility AlgoSec provides across our customers’ security networks, and the ability to perform coordinated tasks remotely with them, enables us to work hand-in-hand as a joint team,” says Bleyer. Atruvia also uses AlgoSec to automate policy change management across customers’ firewall environments, enabling the company to eliminate manual and inefficient processes associated with the security policy change lifecycle, save time and reduce the potential for human error. “AlgoSec has fundamentally changed how we manage sophisticated, multi-device, multi-vendor firewall environments. By automating our workflows, we’ve eliminated unnecessary policy changes and reduced the time required to process changes by half,” explains Bleyer. “Thanks to AlgoSec’s intelligent automation, we’ve gained valuable optimization capabilities enabling our teams to operate smarter and faster.” Another important AlgoSec feature is its automatic assessment and reporting capabilities, which help Atruvia ensure that it remains in continuous compliance with corporate governance rules and adheres to regulatory standards, including ISO 27001, ISO 27002 and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX). Data and network security, particularly within the financial sector, requires incredible focus on risk management and mitigation. “With AlgoSec we can now analyze every change and its impact on the network before it is live, and focus on risk mitigation rather than crisis management.” In summary, Bleyer commented, “Not only does AlgoSec more than measure up from a technology perspective, but the integrity of the company and its employees has surpassed our expectations and raised the bar for what we look for in other partners.” Schedule time with one of our experts

ACE automates critical security tasks, including security change management workflows, streamlining updates, reducing human error, and accelerating application delivery while maintaining a full audit trail for compliance. Are slow security changes holding you back? Read more Feeling in the dark about your cloud security? In today's fast-paced, hybrid, and multi-cloud world, you're embracing agility and innovation in the cloud. But with that comes a common and critical challenge: a lack of clear network security visibility and control over your security posture. It's like trying to navigate a complex landscape blindfolded – you know there are risks, but you can't quite see them. This can leave your valuable assets vulnerable to misconfigurations, compliance gaps, and even security breaches. The challenge: A fragmented view of your cloud security Imagine trying to protect your entire enterprise without truly knowing where all your applications and data reside, how they communicate, or what risks they might face. For many organizations, this is the reality in the cloud today: Scattered security data Your security information is spread out. It lives in on-premises firewalls, AWS Security Groups, Azure Network Security Groups, GCP Firewall Rules, SASE solutions, and various other cloud-native tools. There's no single, clear dashboard to bring it all together. Hidden application dependencies Modern applications are intricate, with components often spanning different clouds and your on-premises environment. Without deep insight, it's incredibly tough to understand how these pieces interact, what their traffic flows look like, or how a change in one area could unexpectedly impact another. Shadow IT & constant change Your security information is spread out. It lives in on-premises firewalls, AWS Security Groups, Azure Network Security Groups, GCP Firewall Rules, SASE solutions, and various other cloud-native tools. There's no single, clear dashboard to bring it all together. Scattered security data The ease of spinning up new cloud resources can lead to Shadow IT – new deployments that might not be properly managed or secured. Combine this with the rapid, dynamic nature of cloud environments, and it becomes a real struggle to keep tabs on everything and ensure it's securely configured. Difficulty spotting risks proactively When you lack a clear picture of your entire network and application landscape, your security teams often struggle to identify potential security risks, overly permissive rules, or compliance violations before they lead to a costly breach. A leading cause of breaches The impact is significant: 82% of organizations report that a lack of visibility is a major factor in cloud security breaches. If you can't see your assets and their connections, you simply can't protect them effectively. This fragmented view creates security blind spots, making misconfigurations and compliance issues far more likely, and ultimately increasing the risk of costly security incidents. Clear, unified visibility with AlgoSec Cloud Enterprise (ACE) At AlgoSec, we understand these challenges, and that's why AlgoSec Cloud Enterprise (ACE) is designed to directly address this visibility and control gap. ACE provides you with a comprehensive and unified view of your entire security posture across your hybrid and multi-cloud environments. How ACE brings clarity to your cloud: Deep application-centric discovery ACE automatically discovers and maps all your applications and their underlying components, no matter where they are – AWS, Azure, GCP, or beyond. It helps you understand exactly how these components interact and identifies critical dependencies. Unified network view Get a single, clear picture of your entire network, including firewalls, security groups, network ACLs, and cloud-native security controls. This eliminates those security blind spots and gives you full context. Continuous risk mapping ACE constantly assesses your environment for risks tied to your security policies. This helps you proactively spot and mitigate threats before they can cause harm. End-to-end traffic flow analysis Understand precisely how traffic flows between your applications and across your hybrid environment. This makes troubleshooting easier, helps optimize your security policies, and enhances your overall risk assessment. With AlgoSec Cloud Enterprise, you'll move from operating in the dark to having complete, intelligent oversight. This empowers your security teams to truly control and secure your dynamic cloud environments with confidence. Request a demo Are inconsistent security policies creating headaches? In today's complex IT landscape, managing network security policies can feel like juggling too many balls at once. As you expand into the cloud, you’re likely using a mix of on-premises firewalls, cloud vendor security groups, and third-party cloud firewalls. Trying to manage all these manually often leads to inconsistent security policies, misconfigurations, and human errors. This can significantly increase your exposure to threats and makes it incredibly difficult to maintain a strong, unified network security posture across your entire organization. The challenge: A patchwork of policies Many organizations face a similar struggle when it comes to network security policy management: Manual & error-prone processes Relying on manual updates for security policies across diverse environments is time-consuming and highly susceptible to errors. A simple typo can open up a critical vulnerability. Fragmented network security posture Each environment (on-premises, AWS, Azure, GCP) often has its own set of network security controls and policies managed in isolation. This creates a patchwork, rather than a cohesive, unified network security posture. Increased attack surface Inconsistent policies and misconfigurations can leave gaps in your network defenses, creating an expanded attack surface that bad actors can exploit.

In today's complex IT landscape, managing network security policies can feel like juggling too many balls at once. As you expand into the cloud, you’re likely using a mix of on-premises firewalls, cloud vendor security groups, and third-party cloud firewalls. Trying to manage all these manually often leads to inconsistent security policies, misconfigurations, and human errors. This can significantly increase your exposure to threats and makes it incredibly difficult to maintain a strong, unified network cloud security posture across your entire organization. The challenge: Security bottlenecks in a dynamic world Imagine trying to protect your entire enterprise without truly knowing where all your applications and data reside, how they communicate, or what risks they might face. For many organizations, this is the reality in the cloud today: Manual & error-prone processes Relying on manual updates for security policies across diverse environments is time-consuming and highly susceptible to errors. A simple typo can open up a critical vulnerability. Fragmented network security posture Each environment (on-premises, AWS, Azure, GCP) often has its own set of network security controls and policies managed in isolation. This creates a patchwork, rather than a cohesive, unified network security posture. Increased attack surface Inconsistent policies and misconfigurations can leave gaps in your network defenses, creating an expanded attack surface that bad actors can exploit. Difficulty enforcing standards Without a centralized approach, it's challenging to ensure that all applications and data adhere to the same network security standards and compliance requirements, regardless of their location.

Navigating the world of regulatory requirements and industry standards in today's complex cloud environments can feel overwhelming. You're committed to meeting crucial mandates like HIPAA or PCI DSS, but the sheer complexity of your hybrid infrastructure – spanning on-premises data centers and multiple clouds – makes it a significant hurdle. Many organizations struggle not only to achieve compliance but also to demonstrate continuous adherence and quickly generate the audit reports needed to prove it. The challenge: A maze of compliance in the cloud Staying compliant in a dynamic, hybrid cloud environment presents unique and persistent challenges: Complex regulatory landscape The number and complexity of regulations are constantly growing. Ensuring every part of your diverse infrastructure meets these specific requirements is a monumental task. Lack of unified compliance view Your data and applications might reside across various cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and on-premises systems, each with different security controls. Getting a holistic, real-time view of your compliance posture across this entire landscape is incredibly difficult. Manual & time-consuming audits When auditors come knocking, manually gathering evidence and generating reports from disparate systems is a slow, error-prone, and resource-intensive process, often leading to delays and stress. Proving continuous compliance It's not enough to be compliant at a single point in time; you need to demonstrate continuous adherence. Tracking every policy change and configuration update against compliance requirements is nearly impossible without automation. Identifying and remedying gaps Without clear visibility, pinpointing exactly where your compliance gaps exist – whether it's an overly permissive firewall rule or a misconfigured cloud security group – becomes a daunting detective mission. These challenges not only expose your organization to potential fines and reputational damage but also divert valuable resources that could be focused on innovation.

Request a demo Feeling the pinch of the cloud security skills gap? The cloud offers incredible power and flexibility, but it also demands new expertise. You've invested in cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and GCP, yet your cloud network security team might be grappling with a common challenge: a significant cybersecurity skills gap. Traditional on-premises security approaches often don't translate directly to cloud-native controls, leading to frustrating misconfigurations and vulnerabilities. It's tough to find and retain highly specialized cloud security experts with network experience, leaving your team stretched thin and potentially exposing your organization to unnecessary risks. The challenge: Bridging the cloud security knowledge divide Many organizations face similar hurdles when it comes to cloud security talent: The scarcity of cloud experts There just aren't enough cybersecurity professionals with deep, hands-on experience in cloud-native security controls and architectures. This makes recruitment and retention a constant battle. Traditional mindsets don't always fit Applying security strategies designed for on-premises data centers directly to the dynamic, API-driven cloud environment often results in inefficiencies and security blind spots. What works in one doesn't always work in the other. Increased risk of misconfigurations Without specialized knowledge, it's easy to make mistakes when configuring complex cloud network security settings, opening doors to potential breaches or compliance violations. Slowed cloud adoption The lack of in-house expertise can slow down your cloud initiatives. Security teams become a bottleneck because they need more time to understand and properly secure new cloud deployments. Overburdened teams Your existing security team is already busy.

Request a demo Are you proactively protecting your cloud, or just reacting? In the fast-paced, ever-changing world of cloud computing, new risks and security threats can emerge at lightning speed. For enterprises like yours, identifying and mitigating these potential risks before they are exploited is a constant and significant challenge. It’s not enough to simply react to incidents; you need to proactively assess risk, including identifying those tricky misconfigurations and overly permissive access rules that can create open doors for attackers. Without a clear view, you might be unknowingly pushing risks into your production environment. The challenge: Staying ahead of cloud risks Many organizations find themselves struggling to keep up with the dynamic nature of cloud risks: Rapidly evolving attack surface The flexibility of cloud means continuous changes – new services, ephemeral resources, and dynamic scaling. Each change can introduce new risks if not properly secured. Hidden misconfigurations Simple errors in configuring cloud security groups, network ACLs, or container settings can create critical security gaps that are hard to spot manually. These misconfigurations are a leading cause of breaches. Overly permissive access Policies that grant more access than truly needed (e.g., "any-to-any" rules or broad IP ranges) significantly increase the potential blast radius of a breach, but they are often difficult to identify and clean up without specialized tools. Lack of proactive insight Traditional security tools often react to threats rather than proactively identifying potential weaknesses in your security posture or don’t allow you to have full visibility into your current business applications. Complex dependencies Understanding how a change in one area of your cloud or hybrid environment might introduce risk in another interdependent system requires deep analysis that's often beyond manual capabilities. These challenges mean your organization might be unknowingly exposing itself to threats, pushing insecure configurations into production, and spending valuable time reacting to issues rather than preventing them.
