Centralized security policies have streamlined audits and ensure consistent protection by default
One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option. The compliance reports are helpful, but having more granular insights or export options would make it even easier to use during audits. Also, support for more third-party integration could improve flexibility. Another improvement I need to see is a smoother setup experience. Some of the initial configuration steps, especially around the organization and permissions, can feel complex. A more guided setup or clear UI explanation would make it easier for teams to adopt quickly. One more improvement would be better alerting options. Right now, we mostly rely on AWS Security Hub or CloudWatch for detailed alerts. Having more built-in, real-time notification directly from AWS Firewall Manager would make it easier to monitor policy violations without extra setup.
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 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."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the centrally managed rule. I also like the central orchestration."
"My advice for anybody who is considering the AWS Firewall Manager is that it is pretty simple to set up and easy to use."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."
"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."
"The product is highly reliable."
"It’s a pretty good product."
"I like how it's able to optimize your policy, look at the objects, and other similar functions."
"Tufin saves a lot of time on the policy requests deployment, enhances the SLA of the policy requests or changes, and enhances the accuracy of the policy deployment."
"This solution definitely helps to reduce the time it takes to make changes."
"Just buy it."
"Valuable features include a central pane of management for all the firewalls and the ability to do queries on the rules and understand in which files the rules are configured."
"The biggest thing is regarding the automation that it allows our customers to do at the end of the day so that they can go and scale their environment a lot more than they could in the past."
"There may be a better product a year from now, but we're using Tufin now and we're satisfied with it."
 

Cons

"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."
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"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."
"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."
"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."
"It does not natively support all of the Check Point functions which is a big deal."
"Tufin has come a long way when it comes to visibility. What we would like to see is a little bit more on the discovery level, network discovery, which Tufin does not have today."
"I wish there was a read-only admin option. I don't like that you have to be a full admin just to see the Network Topology Map. That option is great out there if you are a user, multi-domain user, etc. However, that piece is very helpful for us, but I also don't want to be handing out admin access to every single person so they can see that network tab."
"It's still challenging in some cases to get it integrated with other systems."
"It would be better if Tufin could integrate with the Cisco routers, FireEye, and other devices like that, so you can do the routing changes and so on straight from SecureChange."
"So far, our impressions of stability are not very good."
"Some of the challenges we have include getting the reports and the tools to look at our specific environment."
"We will be using the appliance based product, which cannot be scaled as much. It is a limitation in the hardware."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."
"Licensing is available in both perpetual and subscription models, and it appears to be good for our scalable environments."
"Its price is reasonable, but it could be lower. It has been cost-effective for us. We have a contract for three years."
"The solution is more reasonably priced than its competitors."
"For us, the pricing was six out of ten, with ten being the most expensive and one being the cheapest."
"We have seen ROI in operational aspects, in terms of how long it takes to resolve incidences which arise."
"It is expensive, but as compared to other players, it's more or less okay. Their pricing is not very transparent. This is my biggest point regarding Tufin. I've never seen a price list or something like that. It's always individual, and in many cases, it's very confusing to know what is the base and what is the price."
"Our licensing fees are approximately $100,000 USD yearly."
"The pricing is reasonable."
