A Firewall Security Review is a comprehensive assessment of firewall configurations, rule bases, network segmentation controls, access policies, firmware versions, and security monitoring capabilities. Organizations rely on firewalls as the first line of defense against cyber threats, making regular firewall assessments critical for maintaining a strong security posture.
Our deliverables include:
At Securis360, our experts use a combination of manual and automated processes to assess your firewall’s security posture. Our comprehensive review includes:
Ensuring your firewall’s software is up-to-date and free from known vulnerabilities.
Verifying controlled access to the physical firewall.
Analyzing configurations for best practices and alignment with organizational needs.
Validating traffic rules to ensure they align with your security policies.
Identifying unused or outdated rules that could create vulnerabilities.
We also test traffic access between network segments or DMZs to isolate unintended access and conduct non-threatening, low-bandwidth scans or penetration tests to detect open ports.
Enhance your security posture with these additional services:
Identify and address vulnerabilities to ensure robust protection.
Meet the requirements of PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and other frameworks.
Save time and resources by addressing potential risks proactively.
Reviews can be conducted remotely or on-site based on your unique needs.
Let Securis360 assist your organization in assessing and mitigating risks through our Firewall Security Review. Secure your firewall environment, ensure compliance, and gain peace of mind.
A Firewall Security Review is a comprehensive assessment of firewall configurations, rules, policies, access controls, and security settings to identify vulnerabilities and risks.
Firewalls protect networks, applications, and systems from unauthorized access, malware, and cyberattacks.
Identify security gaps, detect misconfigurations, improve access control, reduce attack surface, ensure compliance, and strengthen security.
Firewall reviews should be done quarterly, annually, after changes, after incidents, and before audits.
Open ports, overly permissive rules, unused policies, weak VPN configs, and lack of logging.
Firewall misconfiguration occurs when rules allow unintended or unsafe access.
Audit focuses on compliance; review focuses on security weaknesses and improvements.
Network, NGFW, cloud firewalls, WAF, and virtual firewalls.
Next-generation firewall with IPS, app control, and deep packet inspection.
Protects web apps from SQL injection, XSS, and bot attacks.
Reviews firewall policies for risky or redundant rules.
They control allowed and blocked network traffic.
Rules allowing excessive access increasing attack risk.
Inactive rules that increase risk and should be removed.
Reduces attack surface and improves security.
They filter traffic based on security rules.
Dividing networks into secure zones.
Isolated zone for public-facing services.
Unused and risky ports should be blocked.
Ingress = incoming traffic, egress = outgoing traffic.
Protects encrypted remote access connections.
Ensures secure access for remote users.
Detects weak encryption and outdated protocols.
Reviews AWS, Azure, and GCP firewall settings.
Includes exposed services and weak access rules.
Yes, they secure workloads and APIs.
Yes for ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC2, GDPR.

Banking, healthcare, SaaS, government, telecom.
Depends on scope and complexity.
Findings, risks, compliance gaps, recommendations.
Helps reduce ransomware risk.
No, needs layered security.
Any-any rules, weak configs, no logging.
Yes, if misconfigured.
Verifies every user and device continuously.
Removes unnecessary rules and improves performance.
Through audits, testing, and monitoring.
Palo Alto, Fortinet, Cisco, Check Point.
