Firewall Configuration Review.
Find misconfigurations, reduce exposure, and tighten policy, without disrupting operations.
A consultant-led best practice review of your firewall configuration and rulebase to identify risky access, weak controls, and policy drift, then give you a clear, prioritised remediation plan.
Currently we are running a promotional offer until March 2026, please get in touch to learn more.
Why this matters.
Firewall misconfiguration is one of the easiest ways to lose control of your network.
Most firewall issues aren’t “broken”, they’re quiet exposures created by rulebase growth, temporary exceptions, migrations, and unmanaged change.
This review helps you answer:
- What traffic are we allowing that we don't need?
- What rules have become too broad?
- What rules do we no longer need?
- Are admin controls, logging and security profiles configured to support detection and response?
Outcomes.
What is included?
We assess your firewall configuration against best practice and practical risk, including:
Rulebase & policy review
We identify rules that create unnecessary exposure and highlight where the rulebase can be tightened, simplified, and better governed.
Network segmentation & access paths
We check whether your firewall policies still enforce the segmentation you expect, or whether changes have opened unintended routes between networks.
Administrative access controls
We review how administrative access is restricted and ensure management paths aren’t unnecessarily exposed or overly permissive.
Authentication settings
We validate admin authentication and hardening controls to reduce the risk of credential compromise and unauthorised changes.
Logging configuration & visibility
We assess whether logging is configured to give you reliable security visibility and usable evidence during incident response.
Security profile/ inspection controls
We confirm whether threat prevention features are correctly applied where needed, and flag gaps where traffic is allowed without inspection.
Configuration hygiene
We review configuration health against best practice to spot unsafe defaults, legacy settings, and drift from a secure baseline.
