Firewalls decay: rules pile up, exceptions are never removed and nobody owns the review. The service brings change control and regular rule reviews to the network.

Every change is requested, risk-checked and recorded, and rule sets are reviewed on a schedule so you can show auditors what is allowed and why.

Why it matters

Change control with approval records
Scheduled rule-base reviews
Patch and firmware management
Health and availability monitoring
Segmentation reviews

Who delivers each serviceSome managed services are delivered by a vetted delivery partner rather than by CISO Consulting's own team. Each service states who delivers it, and the proposal confirms the delivering party and the contract before you commit. Explore managed security
