Executive SummaryUpdated on Nov 4, 2024

Tufin Orchestration Suite and AWS Firewall Manager compete in the network security management category. Tufin Orchestration Suite seems to have the upper hand with its ability to manage multi-vendor environments and provide detailed policy analysis.

Features: Tufin Orchestration Suite includes SecureTrack for rule implementation and audit compliance, SecureChange for automated workflow management, and multi-vendor support for unified security management. It allows detailed network analysis supporting various firewall configurations. AWS Firewall Manager offers robust automation for policy management, easy integration within the AWS ecosystem, and cloud-native security features that simplify AWS resource protection.

Room for Improvement: Tufin Orchestration Suite could improve its topology visualization, expand support for additional security devices, and enhance third-party tool integration. Users express a need for a more user-friendly interface and flexible reporting options. AWS Firewall Manager would benefit from better documentation, expanded logging capabilities, and greater feature customization to enhance its functionality outside AWS environments.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Tufin Orchestration Suite primarily deploys on-premises, supporting hybrid and private cloud setups, offering significant control but with complex deployment. Customer service is mostly praised, although experiences vary. AWS Firewall Manager is straightforward to deploy in public and hybrid cloud environments, ideal for AWS users, with generally well-regarded customer service, though improved non-AWS integration support is desired.

Pricing and ROI: Tufin Orchestration Suite is priced higher due to its extensive features, but it promises strong ROI through process simplification. Its complex licensing is based on device support. AWS Firewall Manager offers flexible cost governance but might be considered costly by some due to its pay-as-you-go model, yet it provides agility in cloud settings. Both tools enhance ROI by streamlining security operations, catering to different needs and scales.

Cloud Option Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

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.

Works

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

"It has centralized cloud firewall management rules. It provides compliance in tracking and reporting."

"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 interface is intuitive and it is easy for the users."

"The product is highly reliable."

"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."

"The most valuable feature is the centrally managed rule. I also like the central orchestration."

"Also, the strength of the community is invaluable."

More AWS Firewall Manager pros

"The clarity around the auditing provides the most value for us."

"This solution has helped us with compliance because we're able to map out certain firewall rules against compliance requirements, and we're able to write reports to show us exactly what our firewalls look like in those areas."

"You can easily scale the solution if you need to."

"We use Tufin to clean up our firewall policies. It benefits us, because you can run a query for whatever your cleanup criteria is, e.g., "Has it been hit in 90 days?" It displays the list, then you can see the rules right there. If you want to get rid of it (or highlight it), then it creates a ticket that goes ahead and flags them all as disabled. While you can delete them, we always disable first. Then, we have a strip that comes back, and if it's been disabled for 90 days, then the system will remove them."

"Our engineers save quite a bit of time that was previously spent on manual processes."

"Tufin has improved my organization with its configuration management. It has tremendously improved the operation's success and has made life easier."

"I don't think that we were ever slow, but we can now say that changes are completed within twenty-four hours."

"Tufin simplifies understanding network topology."

More Tufin Orchestration Suite pros

Cons

"The product could benefit from improvements in the user interface and integration capabilities."

"One area for improvement is the reporting and customization option."

"Enabling and configuring the logging is not that straightforward."

"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."

"The system should be more customizable."

"AWS Firewall Manager should be open to manage other third-party appliances as well."

"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."

"They could consider organizing and enhancing documentation in a more structured and chronological manner"

More AWS Firewall Manager cons

"I would like more enforcement. Right now. it's a lot of alerting. You see it in Tufin, but you have to go to Check Point or whatever device to make the actual action."

"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 don't get the full visibility. There are a lot of improvements which can be done in terms of visibility."

"The change impact analysis doesn't even get close to actually solving our problems. I am not impressed with it."

"There are pros and cons to the workflow. You cannot customize it fully and there are some limitations. You cannot create a pure object, a firewall, IP, or service (single layer) object. You can only create a firewall object group. That is one of the challenges."

"The change workflow process is flexible and customizable to some extent, but there is room for improvement. In some cases, we've found it difficult to get the exact thing which we were looking for. Then, we end up having to go and do the thing manually."

"I would like to see the hardware specifications improved."

"The solution does not have automation with other Firewalls."

More Tufin Orchestration Suite cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is on a pay-as-you-go basis and we are billed monthly."

"The AWS Firewall Manager is a little on the costly side."

"It is a cost-efficient product."

"From what I've heard from my colleagues, it appears that the pricing is competitive, which influenced our decision to choose this option."

"There are ways to deploy the license to different types of firewall. However, if we decide to change the physical brand of the firewall, we need to go back to Tufin and modify the licensing. This is a hassle."

"The licensing costs are around $250,000 to $300,000."

"Pricing is quite high. We did compare it with AlgoSec but the pricing is not much different between the two."

"We have seen ROI from the side of operations, and we'll probably get to more of that as time goes on. However it took a while to get to that point."

"Licensing is available in both perpetual and subscription models, and it appears to be good for our scalable environments."

"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."

"The solution is more reasonably priced than its competitors."

"We've seen a decrease of about 50 percent in the overall time it takes to complete a firewall change."
