AlgoSec platform upgrade paints bigger firewall picture

25.11.2008

The feature can be used to troubleshoot complaints that legitimate traffic is being blocked and pinpoint which firewall is at fault.

It can also be used to find redundant rules. If an overarching rule in one firewall effectively does the same thing that a more specific rule does at a subsequent firewall, there is no need for the more specific rule. AFA 5.0 can discover these redundant rules so they can be cleaned up, making each firewall run more efficiently.

AFA 5.0 is available now.
