Has strengthened compliance management and improved threat detection through real-time security integrations
We work with the compliance monitoring capability in AWS Firewall Manager, and my firm has one level of additional layer of security over the compliance management that AWS Firewall Manager provides, so we implement both of them. It is helpful for our compliance, as the compliance manager manages compliance with leading industry standards such as FedRAMP, which my company complies with, GDPR laws, and ISO 27001. It has an impact on our security policies because it has an inheritance rule where anything implemented on AWS Firewall Manager gets overridden on AWS Organizations, which works on the concept of root organization units. I would assess this feature positively, as we have integrated AWS Firewall Manager with GuardDuty, which provides real-time threat detection and alerts to our teams.
Vulnerability control saves audit costs and reduces expenses for organizations
Tufin Orchestration Suite is not commonly used in Thailand due to a lack of local support, and many customers are switching to AlgoSec or other vendors. The analytics features of Tufin Orchestration Suite are challenging to use and require technical expertise, which is a concern as there is not much knowledge in this field in Thailand. The issue of technical knowledge, especially regarding English language proficiency, is significant for government and some companies, making Tufin Orchestration Suite harder to use.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product is highly reliable."
"It is helpful for our compliance, as the compliance manager manages compliance with leading industry standards such as FedRAMP, which my company complies with, GDPR laws, and ISO 27001."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"The interface is intuitive and it is easy for the users."
"AWS Firewall Manager isn't a separate solution when you create the virtual private cloud (VPC), so you can control the traffic through that security group."
"We work with compliance monitoring in the product, which is helpful for identifying framework-based misconfigurations, as it can tell you where to deploy firewall policies based on the frameworks."
"The most valuable feature is scaling, which allows you to deploy one configuration and scan and deploy it across the network. The automated policy application feature also streamlines security operations."
"The change workflow process is flexible and customizable. I was really impressed with it. It's pretty easy. You can add automatic validation steps. Depending on the security matrix, you can pre-allow whatever flow you want."
"You can easily scale the solution if you need to."
"The policy overview is valuable."
"The best feature for me is being able to look up objects within all of our policies, because we have a little over 12,000 rules and over 30,000 objects. When one person says, 'Hey, where's my server?' I can just go to Tufin and say, 'Hey, where is that server?' and very quickly it tells you where it is, what policy it's on. That is a life saver."
"The most valuable feature of Tufin is security auditing. We are able to check the rules and compliance of the company, for example, what is allowed or not. We are able to check the rules over different gateways and set over firewalls."
"The filtering of lots of criteria is very valuable."
"It provides a comprehensive overview of what our network looks like in terms of what is allowed and what is not, then how the traffic' is flowing with the Network Topology Map."
"I like the policy topology map, which allows us to visualize the picture of the security policy of the whole organization."
 

Cons

"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"The system should be more customizable."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"This solution is suitable for a small-scale enterprise and may not scale up to a very high volume of traffic or a large number of servers."
"I would like to see AWS add some UTM features to the firewall. It would also be great if AWS Firewall had native IPS/IDS. They have the separate IPS/IDS, GuardDuty."
"The areas of improvement are definitely platform resiliency, as we have seen outages on the AWS backbone, and whenever there is an outage on the AWS backbone, it impacts all the services hosted on that region, so we expect regional resiliency."
"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"A limitation right now for compressed firewalls is the limited ability to see above a site level in terms of the Topology Mapping in the policy display. While Tufin's actively working on a solution, or at least they have this in the queue, from being able to view this on a higher level and how all of our site networks are connected, this ability would be useful, as we expect to have these compressed firewalls in place for quite some time."
"I would like to simplify the reports, and maybe have another view besides the charts. Possibly they could be more graphical."
"The hardest piece is getting the matrix built."
"The policy browser has had trouble working. We have experienced bugs."
"I don't get the full visibility. There are a lot of improvements which can be done in terms of visibility."
"One of the areas that I've had challenges with is making complicated reports."
"I would really like to see a new UI for SecureChange. SecureTrack 2.0 has quite an improvement in the UI and it flows more smoothly. The current SecureTrack and SecureChange are a little blocky, and sometimes loading a tab or a page is required to refresh information. Whereas in SecureTrack 2.0, they're starting to improve on that."
"There were some hiccups here and there with the initial setup."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."
"The AWS Firewall Manager is a little on the costly side."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"I'm saving 20 man-hours a week, so I am seeing some ROI."
"We haven't purchased the license yet for SecureChange. We do have plans to buy it next year."
"Our licensing fees are more than $100,000 USD per year."
"The solution has helped us to reduce the time it takes to make changes. With Tufin, it takes ten to 15 minutes. Before, it was 30 minutes or more."
"The additional piece, which we are buying and doesn't include our other solution, is close to 300,000."
"The price of Tufin could be lower."
"Tufin and AlgoSec were pretty much in the competitive price range, but this one provided us better integration into the Check Point environment."
"Our evaluation showed that Tufin's features were on par with AlgoSec, but Tufin was the better financial choice."
