Case Study: Orange Cyberdefense cuts firewall rule implementation time by 50% with AlgoSec

Orange cuts firewall rule implementation time by 50% with AlgoSec

Orange Cyberdefense, the cybersecurity unit of the Orange Group, faced significant challenges while managing security for a large global retail client. The client's complex, multi-vendor network environment, with over 2,500 firewalls, suffered from a lack of centralized management and automation. This led to slow, error-prone manual processes for handling hundreds of daily change requests, taking over a week to implement firewall rules that were often incorrect.

The solution was implemented using the AlgoSec Security Policy Management suite, including AlgoSec Horizon Security Analyzer, FireFlow, and AppViz. This provided comprehensive visibility, automation, and centralized control over the security policy change process. As a result, AlgoSec helped cut the time required to implement firewall rules by 50%, drastically improved documentation and compliance reporting, and reduced misconfigurations through better communication between teams.
