Our security test ensures that the firewall configuration and rules meet the company's business and compliance needs.
Every business, regardless of size, uses firewall technology to establish limits of trust and security and access the internet for inter-business communication.
Next-generation firewalls provide increasing complexity, and functionality requires you to manage firewalls appropriately.
The list of regulations will be thoroughly investigated following the operational assessment and based on the level of trust needed from the security apparatus.
A weak/outdated firewall may have made the target systems vulnerable to information disclosure, exploiting the compromise.
Identification of the target environment, including the network topology, the number and type of firewalls, and the followed standards, must be compatible. The discovery process identifies critical assets within a system that should be protected with the strictest security controls possible.
A thorough examination conducted of existing rules which the client has implemented, define rules justification is noted against the business requirement.
The rules for whitelisting services, IP addresses, and port numbers are reviewed.
Authorization, logging/alerting, firmware patching, and administrative access are all examples of security configurations that need to be examined.
Once the assessment is complete, a detailed written report outlining each observed and or exploited vulnerabilities, along with the root cause analysis and categorisation along with mitigation and confirmatory re-test certificate if the need arrives.
What really makes us stand apart is our excellent and round the clock support, making sure our clients never have to witness hurdles in the business.
Firewall Security Audit
For most organisations that do not use a multi-layer of security, a firewall device acts as the gatekeeper to the network and is often the first and last line of defence.
The Firewall is a device that sits between the inside and outside of your network and regulates who can enter and exit it.
A firewall that is incorrectly configured or has a software vulnerability due to a lack of patching can significantly impact your organisation’s security posture and allow a complete hacker access to the network.
HackersEra's firewall audit identifies weak protocols, insecure rules, and additional data leakages that could jeopardise the firewall's infrastructure. Our team of cybersecurity experts has experience building firewalls from the ground up as well as implementing technology from a variety of leading firewall vendors. This allows us to see everything from both the attacker's and the defender's point of view. It enables us to conduct some of the most difficult and thorough assessments in our industry.
