Fast is Fragile—Until You Automate.

Woman Professional

Manual firewall rule changes are slow, inconsistent, and error-prone—especially across hybrid environments. Teams struggle to keep pace with business demands, creating risky workarounds, policy conflicts, and missed SLAs. Without automation, even simple changes can delay deployments, introduce vulnerabilities, and drain security resources.

Misconfiguration comes in third and accounts for 21% of error-related breaches.

The priority is set to Medium with a due date of April 10, 2025. The business need notes state "Could not find owner." The ticket is unassigned and was created and updated on March 27, 2025. Various fields such as Application Name, Application Owner, and Tags are empty. The interface includes buttons for actions like Assign, Cancel Ticket, Submit, Save, and Download. Tabs for "Comments," "Attachments," "Task History," and "Ticket History" are also visible.

Automate Rule Creation from Request to Deployment

FireMon automates rule creation workflows across hybrid environments. Requests are assessed for policy impact, device targets, and object reuse. Intelligent recommendations ensure accuracy, while approved rules can be pushed instantly or scheduled. With FireMon, customers see up to 90% faster rule change execution, enabling faster business outcomes without introducing risk.

Eliminate human error

Validate Changes Before They Go Live

FireMon scans every proposed rule against compliance and risk policies before implementation. Automated guardrails detect overly permissive access or violations of internal standards, helping teams avoid misconfigurations that could lead to outages or breaches. This pre-deployment validation ensures changes are secure, consistent, and audit-ready.

Improve SLA performance

Deliver Change Requests with Confidence

Business-critical services often depend on narrow change windows. FireMon’s automation tools let teams stage and schedule deployments to align with those windows, with confidence that the changes have been pre-scanned for impact and violations. This capability helps enterprises meet SLAs and support agile delivery models.

Maintain centralized control

Manage Change Across All Platforms

FireMon supports 120+ vendors and cloud platforms, enabling centralized change management across hybrid infrastructure. Teams gain full visibility and control from a single interface, streamlining workflows and reducing friction. Even complex changes involving multiple firewall brands can be orchestrated with ease using FireMon.

Reduce change backlog

Scale Policy Management without Scaling Headcount

Manual processes can’t scale. FireMon customers dramatically reduce time spent per change, freeing teams to process more requests without additional staff. Automation eliminates repetitive tasks and approval delays—enabling teams to manage more firewalls and more changes without burnout or bottlenecks.

  • Given the complexity of our environment we were skeptical that any vendor could deliver on a solution that could unite policies across our mix of on-premises firewalls, Azure, and AWS. FireMon not only promised they could, they demonstrated it in a POC that took less than a week.”
