Firewalls are an essential part of network security. Firewalls set a security perimeter. This is the reason organizations spend a massive amount on security and firewalls. The biggest nightmare of any organization is a data breach with exposed information which is an example of firewall misconfiguration.
Firewall testing typically presents the most straightforward and compelling proof of the efficacy of a firewall if done correctly. Understanding that a firewall will survive the same threats that network attackers currently use creates a strong degree of faith in the firewall. Failing to withstand those attacks exposes unique security exposures in the firewall to remedy them.
Another beneficial result of firewall testing is to discover and correct these vulnerabilities before hackers find them.
A correctly configured firewall allows authorized users to access inbound and outbound data and blocks data access by unauthorized users.
A correctly configured firewall can block the IP depending on certain parameters, which include too many links, failed login requests, port scan, and other malicious activities, which are configured in the firewall.
These are just a handful of the many safeguards INVESICS employ when it comes to firewall security.
Such testing aims to determine the security of the whole network concerning the probability of remote access from external location.
During a firewall test, INVESICS's INVESICS's INVESICS's security experts, try to hack into the target firewall device from an external location on the network, which most often is the Internet. The testing techniques used are the attacks performed by actual network intruders.
Certain tools like NMAP, TCPDUMP, etc., are very helpful in the process of testing.
After the testing report is generated.
The report is then explained to the client and discussed. If they request a retest, we will present them with a few options and the retest will be completed.
If necessary, INVESICS offers post-retest consulting. The organization's most pressing need is customer satisfaction.
Our value proposition is our custom-made services. Yes, we agree that one size fits all, but we believe that each organization has its own set of requirements that do not suit the one-size-fits-all model. As a result, we tailor our services to each client's needs and place an emphasis on manually validating any false positives. A keen mind can uncover what machines can't. Another feather in our cap is end-to-end service. Following the completion of a project, we give support with all security requirements.
Update the server regularly and patch the latest security updates. FIREWALL can't help vulnerable system
