| Rules | Description | How Firewall Analyzer meets requirement |
|---|---|---|
| 2.1 | All inbound and outbound traffic not specifically permitted should be blocked | Firewall Analyzer helps you to block the unauthorized/malicious traffic by allowing you to configure Explicit Deny rules. It also provides detailed report on all allowed traffic that provides better insights on all inbound and outbound traffic of your network |
| 2.2 | Permit only necessary Internal Protocol to pass through | Firewall Analyzer provides categorized exhaustive reports on allowed traffic across your network that helps in easy interpretation. It also provides you a detailed report on Insecure Service Audit. Both these reports provide better insights on Internal Protocols and help you to permit only the necessary protocols to pass through |
| 2.3 | Firewall policies should only permit appropriate source and destination IP addresses to be used | Firewall Analyzer's Traffic report gives you details on Source, Destination, Service and interface of all configured policies & rules that facilitate you to analyze them and permit the usage of necessary Source and Destination IP address |
| 2.4 | Avoid using localhost addresses in security policies | Firewall Analyzer provides you details on allowed rules with Local IP address that helps you to analyze and block the usage of local addresses in security policies |
| 2.5 | Avoid using invalid addresses in security policies | Firewall Analyzer gives you out-of-the-box report on all allowed traffic to your LAN/ DMZ via WAN interface. This detailed report helps in analyzing security policies at an ease and allows you to avoid the usage of invalid addresses in your security policies. |
| 2.6.2 | Do not allow Outside world to connect directly to LAN/DMZ Networks | Firewall Analyzer's extensive report on Direct connections from Untrusted network helps you to block untrusted connections from outside to your LAN/DMZ network |
| 2.9 | Block the Incoming Traffic to broadcast address | With Firewall Analyzer's report on 'Allowed Traffic' you can identify the incoming network traffic that broadcasts address from untrust Zone and block it |
| 2.10.1 | Be stringent in allowing services for TCP,UDP and ICMP protocols for Incoming Traffic | Firewall Analyzer's out-of-the-box reports on all allowed Incoming TCP,UDP and ICMP traffic provides better insights and facilitates quick decision on allowing services for TCP,UDP and ICMP protocols |
| 2.12.1 | Policies based on User-Identity should be logged | Firewall Analyzer provides you report on all policy logs based on user identity that helps meeting this requirement out-of-the-box |
| 2.13 | Remote Firewall Management Access | Firewall Analyzer provides you instant report on HTTP, Telnet, SSH access details along with the User access details that helps you to analyze and comply to the Remote firewall Management Access requirement |
| 3.1 | Maintain proper documentation for all the changes done to the firewall policies | Firewall Analyzer provides you a detailed report on all configuration change records over period of time that serves as proper documentation of all changes done to the firewall policies |
