Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is the centrally managed rule. I also like the central orchestration.""It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting.""The interface is intuitive and it is easy for the users.""Also, the strength of the community is invaluable.""AWS Firewall Manager isn't a separate solution when you create the virtual private cloud (VPC), so you can control the traffic through that security group.""Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."

"The initial setup was straightforward.""It's hard to pick the most valuable feature. All of them are valuable, they're all critical for us... ChangeTrack obviously has a lot of very good features, like the risk analysis, the USP, and the Policy Browser.""The solution is quite scalable.""The most valuable feature of this solution is that it reduces both the time required and the number of errors when making changes.""It gives our firewall administrators visibility into the total infrastructure.""It provides a real-time sense of how the policies are configured and whether there are any shadow rules. Another great thing is that it provides greater reporting based on how the rules have been set up.""One of the things that came up this week was the ability to decommission a server, which we thought was interesting. We had a workshop recently that talked about all the things that need to be thought about when managing firewalls. People said, "A lot of times, things get forgotten when you are decommissioning a server." E.g., making sure rules are taken away and taking out the rule set. The fact that there is an automated workload for that can be helpful.""The most valuable feature of Tufin is security auditing. We are able to check the rules and compliance of the company, for example, what is allowed or not. We are able to check the rules over different gateways and set over firewalls."

Cons
"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner""The system should be more customizable.""It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient.""I would like to see AWS add some UTM features to the firewall. It would also be great if AWS Firewall had native IPS/IDS. They have the separate IPS/IDS, GuardDuty.""Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward.""This solution is suitable for a small-scale enterprise and may not scale up to a very high volume of traffic or a large number of servers."

More AWS Firewall Manager Cons →

"For me, there are two things that can make Tufin a bit better... [It needs] a better focus on automation - automating a lot of the processes; and automating rule re-certification, or at least finding a way to simplify it.""We want to have the ability for a ticket requester to add somebody, or to give somebody view rights to their ticket.""We found some bugs on the software, but we're working with tech support to fix them.""I haven't seen the cloud integration yet, and I would like to see if we could audit the cloud firewalls, like the cloud-native, Azure, and Amazon. That would be nice. You want one tool to do everything. I don't want to use another tool, or manually go and audit the cloud firewalls.""I don't get the full visibility. There are a lot of improvements which can be done in terms of visibility.""I would like to see visibility into the FW features like IPS/Content Filter policies, the same way it does for FW rules/policies.""We will be using the appliance based product, which cannot be scaled as much. It is a limitation in the hardware.""The change workflow process is getting better. I wish it was a little more customizable. Right now, my biggest issue is that it wants to optimize everything we put in. Sometimes, we need a rule to be more readable, and we want it to go in a specific way. Sometimes, it's difficult to get Tufin to accept that. It wants to optimize and reduce the number of ACLs. On the compliance side, sometimes you just want more ACLs, so it's more readable for an auditor."

    Overview

    AWS Firewall Manager is a security management service which allows you to centrally configure and manage firewall rules across your accounts and applications in AWS Organization. As new applications are created, Firewall Manager makes it easy to bring new applications and resources into compliance by enforcing a common set of security rules. Now you have a single service to build firewall rules, create security policies, and enforce them in a consistent, hierarchical manner across your entire infrastructure.

    Using AWS Firewall Manager, you can easily roll out AWS WAF rules for your Application Load Balancers, API Gateways, and Amazon CloudFront distributions. Similarly, you can create AWS Shield Advanced protections for your Application Load Balancers, ELB Classic Load Balancers, Elastic IP Addresses and CloudFront distributions. Finally, with AWS Firewall Manager, you can enable security groups for your Amazon EC2 and ENI resource types in Amazon VPCs.

    Tufin enables organizations to automate their security policy visibility, risk management, provisioning and compliance across their multi-vendor, hybrid environment. Customers gain visibility and control across their network, ensure continuous compliance with security standards and embed security enforcement into workflows and development pipelines.
