Network Security Audit and Compliance

Preparing for an audit is costly and time-consuming. Simplify the process by maintaining continuous compliance. Automatically identify misconfigurations and check changes for violations before implementation to significantly reduce errors and prep time.

What is network and security compliance?

Network and security compliance is the process of ensuring an organization's networks meet both internal and external security and compliance requirements. This includes processes detailed in their internal security policy or external compliance requirements, such as NIST or PCI DSS.

Maintain continuous compliance to reduce workload and improve security

Discover compliance violations

Compliance policies ensure organizations are taking steps to keep critical data safe. But with the high number of firewalls and network devices in most organizations, it’s difficult to be sure all systems are compliant. Firewall audit software checks compliance continually, alerting you when unwanted traffic is being allowed between zones or devices aren’t configured properly, and reviewing proposed firewall changes for potential violations before implementation.

Reduce audit prep time

Everyone dreads audit time. The reports, the documentation, the continuously evolving compliance requirements… it’s a challenge for even the most prepared teams. Network and firewall audit software provides continuous tracking for the on-going policy and device checks, and schedules compliance reports, so you are always audit ready.

Simplify rule recertification

The manual process of rule recertification is error-prone and time-consuming. However, it’s critical to network and security compliance, and needs to occur on a regular basis. Unnecessary rules slow down the network and is dangerous if bad traffic is allowed through. Automation of this process with a firewall rule audit tool mean that network teams are less error-prone and work more efficiently to maintain continuous compliance.

Navigating the complexities of every regulation

Regulatory frameworks are constantly evolving. New data protection requirements are being introduced or redefined regularly, including those specific for different verticals or regions. So how do you keep up?

An exposure management platform goes beyond firewall audit software

A continuous exposure management solution helps organizations of all sizes comply with regulatory or legislative frameworks and meet compliance requirements. With on-going reviews of your hybrid network security and firewall policies, as well as providing a platform for managing the attack surface, identifying missing security controls and managing vulnerabilities, organizations can stay on top of changing requirements.

Continuous Exposure Management Platform

Visualize and analyze your hybrid attack surface with prioritized vulnerability management, and network security & policy management to continuously reduce exposure risk.

Better manage compliance and regulatory requirements for common frameworks including:

PCI DSS

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is critical to organizations that store, process, or transmit credit card data. With different requirements by level and transaction volume, it holds organizations to a stringent framework for securing cardholder information.
