Case Study: Fortune 500 Telecommunications Company accelerates cloud migration and automates firewall policy changes with FireMon

Fortune 500 Telecommunications Company - Customer Case Study

A Fortune 500 telecommunications company faced an overwhelming volume of firewall policy change requests while managing a growing network of 2,600 devices and preparing for a major cloud migration. To reduce risk, improve compliance, and gain real-time visibility across its multi-vendor environment, the company turned to FireMon’s network security policy management solutions.

FireMon helped the telecom company standardize and automate policy changes, optimize and clean up redundant and risky firewall rules, and centralize policy control for its hybrid environment. As a result, the migration project was completed in 3 months instead of the projected 12 months, ticket backlog dropped from 1,000+ to 80 in days, service times fell from 6–9 months to hours, and the company reported 0 downtime from misconfigurations and 0 escalations.
