Case Study: Orange Cyberdefense achieves 50% faster firewall rule implementation and improved application visibility with AlgoSec

Orange Cyberdefense Furishes Application Delivery and Network Automation

Orange Cyberdefense, the Orange Group’s specialist managed-security unit, was acting as an on-site consultant for a large global retail chain that operated hundreds of stores and mission-critical services. The client ran more than 2,500 multi-vendor firewalls across global data centers and faced hundreds of daily change requests, with no centralized management, manual Excel-based traffic documentation, inconsistent rules across vendors, slow change implementation (over a week), and frequent misconfigurations.

To address this, they deployed the AlgoSec Security Policy Management suite (Firewall Analyzer, FireFlow, and AppViz/AppChange) to centralize visibility, map business applications, and automate security-policy change workflows. The result was a single source of truth and automated change management, a 50% reduction in firewall rule implementation time, improved compliance reporting and documentation, clearer communication between IT and application owners, fewer misconfigurations, and dedicated support from AlgoSec.
