Firewall Configuration Assessment
Our firewall assessment combines automated tools with experienced experts’ manual reviews to build true, in-depth protection for client systems.
We deliver not just volume-based insights but high-quality, detailed analysis of firewall settings, identifying internal gaps attackers could exploit and providing recommendations to strengthen real-world protection.
Process
Port Scan Protection
We verify the firewall effectively blocks unwanted TCP/UDP ports and minimizes attack surface.
Admin Interface Security
We check that management interfaces are not externally accessible and are properly secured.
Malicious Content Filtering
We test the firewall’s ability to block malicious code, files, and protocols.
Logging & Alerting
We evaluate log settings to ensure the system records sufficient data and sends alerts for critical events.
Patch Level
We check that the firewall software is up to date with the latest security patches.
Rule Optimization
We review the rule set to remove redundant, overlapping rules and assess high-risk entries.
Required Data for Assessment
