Automation helps reduce human error, and platform suggests the best configuration to apply

Pros

"The optimizations are the most useful aspect because most customers have a very unmanaged network with a lot of rules. We use a lot of the optimizations in our reports for improving firewall rules."

Cons

"Integration with Oracle on the cloud is not supported. I would also like to see integrations with network devices in Layer 2."

Makes it very easy to maintain and manage our policies, the configuration, and various other maintenance of a particular firewall

Pros

"The most unique feature is the ability to help fix any gaps or mismatches in the configuration of the firewall."

Cons

"AlgoSec cannot be integrated with solutions that require two-step or multi-factor authentication. Embedding multi-factor authentication capability into the solution would be a valuable feature."

Identifies vulnerable rules, brings standardization, and provides overall visibility into our environment

Pros

"We have Check Point, Palo Alto, and FortiGate firewalls, and it integrates pretty seamlessly with these firewalls. We have had no issues so far."

Cons

"There is a little bit of scope for improvement in the risk profiles that come with the AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer module. Currently, AlgoSec provides only three standard zones within a risk profile. These standard zones are external, internal, and DMZ. Everybody's network is divided into different zones within a data center, but AlgoSec only provides three zones. This is a limitation that I see for the risk profile analysis. If there was an option to customize these zones, it would be great."

Straightforward to set up, automation saves us time and reduces human errors

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the automation that can be accomplished by using scripts. If we didn't have AlgoSec, I would have to do everything manually."

Cons

"When we send multiple requests across at once, sometimes it causes errors and FireFlow gets stuck. In cases like this, we have to go back in and fix it."

Provides visibility into my firewall request and lets me see the status, but the analysis part can be improved and it could support policy enforcement

Pros

"The workflow and the fact that I can follow up on a request that I've created and clearly see the status it is in are the most valuable features of this solution. When I need things to move on, for example, if the security guys didn't look at the request or the implementation is not going as it should, then I can contact people. There is a mechanism in there that clearly indicates the service level agreement we have for implementation. We can see if it is being attained."

Cons

"The analysis part can be improved when I make a flow request. There should be a clear analysis of which metric part needs to be opened and which firewalls will be opened. It should give you a bit more graphical visibility about these. "

Makes audits much easier, providing an almost instant "yes" or "no" regarding compliance

Pros

"The firewall policy summarization is the most valuable feature. It helps us to cross-check the firewall ruleset. That's the main purpose of it. And of course, it monitors changes of the firewall policy. It provides full visibility into the risk involved in firewall change requests. It helps us to check for any integrity issues and conflicts with other rulesets, and of course the compliance."

Cons

"Now that we've moved to the VM it is more stable and independent of hardware."

An excellent, intelligent tool that is helpful for finding duplicate rules

Pros

"Because we get about 60 to 70 rules to deploy a week during the firewall maintenance window, we might create some duplicate rules or open duplicate ports. AlgoSec has become very helpful whenever we need to find out the nodes or subnets that have already been created, then we don't need to create the duplicate subnet of that particular IP address."

Cons

"The technical support response time is low. This might be due to the coronavirus pandemic situation, but I am not getting full support when working with them."

Powerful, easy, and manageable

Pros

"AlgoSec has good tools to manage policies and devices. Many administrators like how it helps you monitor and clean up the policy for the on-premise firewall. "

Cons

"In the new version H32, there are many, many bugs. "
