Case Study: Leading Energy Company achieves continuous compliance and automated firewall policy management with AlgoSec

Leading Energy Company Embraces Network Security Policy Automation

A Fortune 50 integrated energy company based in California, with more than 900 firewalls worldwide, faced overly broad and risky firewall policies, limited visibility into network security, heavy manual processes, and growing pressure from legal and compliance teams. These issues made it difficult to enforce standards, validate policies, and safely scale security operations across remote sites.

The company selected AlgoSec’s Security Policy Management solution—AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer and FireFlow—during a migration to Palo Alto Networks to automate policy management, gain application-layer visibility, and map network segmentation. The deployment cleaned up risky rules, reduced misconfigurations, cut maintenance time, enabled continuous compliance and clearer reporting to business units, and supported automation with Ansible and ServiceNow to safely process thousands of daily change requests.
