Case Study: International Components Company achieves stronger network security and reduced risk with AlgoSec

International Components Company Strengthens Network Security & Reduces Risks

An international components company serving aerospace, defense and energy markets faced a growing, poorly maintained firewall estate with legacy devices, unused or overly permissive rules, redundant policies and little visibility into network risk. This sprawl made it hard to quantify exposure, caused repeated change requests for already-covered functionality, and left the security team struggling to keep firewalls compliant and efficient.

The company implemented the AlgoSec Security Policy Management Solution—Firewall Analyzer and FireFlow—to gain visibility into traffic and business applications, automate policy change workflows, and analyze complex security rules. As a result they identified and removed risky and duplicate rules, sped up firewall changes, established audit trails and accountability for policy updates, and improved ongoing compliance with dedicated, tailored AlgoSec support.
