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

"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."
"Once this solution is set up, we hardly have to touch it."
"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."
"Overall, it improved our security posture and made audits much easier."
"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."
"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."
"After implementing AWS Firewall Manager, we reduced our manual security configuration effort by around sixty to seventy percent as the policies are now centralized, managed, and automatically enforced."
"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 firewall remediation and compliance pieces are the most valuable features."
"From an operational excellence, it's huge for us."
"I use the solution daily and can see it anytime that I want, and I find it invaluable in day-to-day management of firewall policy and policy changes."
"On the technical side, the Tufin solution was very helpful for my team, as it would save them time by allowing them to check all the firewall policies in one console, for both Palo Alto and FortiGate, at the same time."
"I think it's a good solution to have."
"For us, in man hours, it saves about 70 hours a week on checking rules and implementing the changes."
"It offers automation capabilities that are very helpful, especially for network security orchestration and applying policies."
"Within one hour, they have all the information they need to start creating firewall rules."
 

Cons

"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."
"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."
"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."
"For AWS WAF, we have seen cases where it allowed suspicious HTTPS headers even if they carried malicious payloads."
"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."
"It needs to be more employee-friendly, and the security management could be more efficient."
"AWS Firewall Manager could be improved with more granular policy customization for better visibility through enhanced dashboards and reporting."
"Right now, my biggest issue is that it wants to optimize everything we put in."
"The policy browser has had trouble working. We have experienced bugs."
"The capabilities Tufin has for Check Point products are excellent. It'd be nice to get the same level of features that it does for Check Point up to par with Cisco, Palo Alto, and so on."
"One of the things that I think they're all missing is something that Indeni does where they mount the boxes proactively for us."
"I feel that the user interface is a bit dated."
"Customizing it can be a little tricky, but that depends on your use cases."
"Technical support for this solution is the worst. I would give it a zero ranking."
"The upgrade was a bit cumbersome because we had to do a complete reinstall."
 

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."
"It is a cost-efficient product."
"I'm saving 20 man-hours a week, so I am seeing some ROI."
"The solution is more reasonably priced than its competitors."
"Price could always be better, but there are always consequences."
"We have seen ROI in operational aspects, in terms of how long it takes to resolve incidences which arise."
"Our licensing fees are approximately $100,000 USD yearly."
"The solution has helped reduce the time it takes us to make changes. It helps make overall integrated changes immediately. It allows us to cut down at least a few hours in the week in regards to changes and monitoring."
"Our licensing costs are pretty low. We were grandfathered in, so we are at about $35,000 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."
