The Firewall Recertification (FWR) app was developed specifically for those responsible for firewall rules. It helps companies regularly review, evaluate, and recertify firewall rules in a structured manner.
By systematically analyzing existing rules, the app helps prevent security gaps that can arise from incorrect, outdated, or no longer needed entries. At the same time, the solution creates transparency regarding rules and responsibilities.
The app thus reduces the workload for both operational IT security and IT architects by enabling clear processes, traceable decisions, and secure governance in firewall management.
