Skybox Security, the leader in proactive security management solutions, today announced it will present a webcast titled Intelligent Firewall Management: The Key Ingredient for Network Consolidation Success, on Wednesday, May 23 at 11 a.m. Eastern, as part of the SANS complimentary series of webcasts.
Firewall policy management (FPM) is beginning to gain recognition as well-known industry research firms, like Gartner, begin to note the value such solutions bring to enterprises that must manage multiple firewall products from different vendors. As organizations struggle with the tasks of keeping firewalls configured securely, coupled with major network and security architecture changes, the threat landscape continues to grow exponentially.
Many organizations are now embarking on large network consolidation projects to enable faster connectivity, consolidate devices, and lower overhead costs. While the business benefits are obvious, the security risks and potential for error is greater than ever. This session will illustrate how one enterprise leveraged advanced security management analytics during a network consolidation project to:
- Optimize large rule-sets across different vendor languages
- Negate network availability and latency issues
- Gain visibility into firewalls throughout the network…and ultimately cut that number in half
Session attendees will learn:
- Best practices for sustainable firewall analysis
- The management must-haves for effective firewall management – during network consolidation and beyond
- How to evaluate a change request across multi-vendor devices
