Applicability

An effective, managed firewall will significantly reduce risk to your business. Without a firewall, your business could easily succumb to a cyber-attack, causing you to lose all of your important data. This would not only disrupt business processes, it would also reduce productivity and likely damage your reputation and brand.
Did you know? 60% of small businesses close within 6 months of a cyber-attack.
Cyber criminals can easily probe every computer connected to the internet and attempt to penetrate their systems. Without a firewall, they can gain access to your important files, depositing them, removing them or using them maliciously. The potential implications of this can be disastrous, often leading to considerable financial loss, reputational damage, and fines from authorities.
But a properly configured, maintained, and monitored firewall will protect your data, network, and devices. Importantly, you need to ensure that your firewall has the power to manage normal and encrypted internet traffic without slowing down your devices or compromising security. If you have a good IT support partner, they will configure and manage the firewall for you as well as taking care of all security updates. As such, you can be assured that your firewall is being taken care of by a team of IT experts, helping to protect your business from new and emerging threats. With CyberSRC® Firewall Security Assessment service, you don’t need to worry about configuring, updating or upgrading.

Firewall Security Assessment with Well-defined, repeatable, and consistent methodology

Review the firewall device configuration, looking at industry best practices and hardening techniques, and interprets the rulesets by understanding the overall company architecture and will:

  • Review the firewall configuration file for the identification and protection of all network segments.
  • Review the processes and mechanisms for a security model that denies access by default.
  • Review the implementation of open ports and services for all access points to the external presence.
  • Review the documentation of those entries and the configuration of those ports and services.
  • Identify the implementations of banners, access controls, and appropriate use policies.
  • Review the implementation of processes for monitoring and logging access at access points to the network.
  • Review controls for default accounts, passwords, and network management community strings.
  • Review all ingress/egress points within the network.

Objective

Conducting a Firewall Security Audit on a regular basis is essential in ensuring and maintaining the security of your organization. In particular, a number of benefits provided by CyberSRC®’s Firewall Penetration Testing includes the following:

  • Know Before it’s Too Late:
    Assess and identify issues early; a proactive versus reactive approach will prevent potential security incidents and eliminate the high costs associated with the recovery process.
  • Increase Overall Security Posture:
    Increase the overall security posture of your organization. Ensuring that a Firewall is properly secured means that the assets behind it are also adequately secured, especially from an external perspective.
  • Minimize Expenditure:
    The recovery process following an incident as well as the resulting costs are typically high. These costs may be avoided by conducting Firewall Security Testing at regular intervals to reduce the likelihood of this occurring.
