Until now, audits were just one of those time-consuming activities that required your attention once a year, or quarter. Although tedious, audits and rule recertifications are essential activities for the efficient operation of your security infrastructure. Audits are also essential in enforcing compliance with various regulations and standards. Because of the enormity of the task, it was not possible to perform real-time audits as a means to continually manage Firewall changes and their adherence to Best Practices.
SecureTrack Rule Base Audit tools empower you to audit, review and control your rule-base whenever you want. With our automated tools, audits, rule-recertifications and periodic or real-time checks for compliance with corporate policy can be done quickly and without human error. You can generate a number of reports that can be used to improve your Firewall's performance. SecureTrack Rule Base Audit tools significantly improve your every day management abilities by automating many auditing tasks that were performed manually up to now.
So, if you used to think that you couldn't afford to perform more than periodic audits, now you can easily see that you can't afford not to.
SecureTrack provides several automated reports for real-time and offline auditing of Firewall rule bases:
> Security Audit
> Rule Change Report
> Expired Rules Report
> Rule Usage Report
Security Audit
In order to ensure adherence to security standards in different organizational areas, you can create and maintain a security audit standard for each area. You can choose to run a single security audit that will apply to all monitored devices, or to create multiple audits with different organizational areas, where each area may have differing security requirements. You can choose between numerous best security practices the ones that are appropriate for your different organizational areas. SecureTrack will report on violations that are contained in your policies.
Rule Change Report
|
You've located a rule that is wrong, mis-configured or not built according to spec. In order to sort out this problem, you need to know how this happened - when and how the error was made. SecureTrack Rule Change report displays a step-by-step account of the rule history, from its introduction right up to the latest policy change. It reports each of the rule changes individually and where the change originated. Administrators and auditors no longer have to spend hours seeking the cause of a problem; they can easily analyze changes, pinpoint errors, and perform root-cause analysis.

Expired Rules Report
Time-limited rules will stay in your rule base until you clean them up. Even though they have expired, they continue to clog your system and slow down the performance of your Firewall if left in the rule base. Unfortunately, it is not always easy to determine a rule's time limitation just by looking at it. Cleaning up expired rules requires constant rule base auditing.
Tufin Technologies has introduced the Expired Rules report just for this purpose. The report analyzes all time-restricted Firewall rules and determines which rules have expired and which rules are about to expire in the next few days. The Expired Rules report enables ongoing, proactive auditing and management of time-limited rules.
