Case Study: a global B2B travel platform achieves 95% less firewall change effort with FireMon

Global B2B Travel Platform cuts firewall change effort by 95% with FireMon

A global B2B travel platform was struggling with a legacy network security policy management (NSPM) platform that could not provide visibility across its hybrid estate of 76 firewalls and 484 cloud devices. This lack of visibility, slow reporting, and inability to resolve nested objects created significant operational drag and left the company unprepared for PCI 4.0 compliance. Manual processes for firewall rule changes and access reviews were consuming roughly 30% of engineering time. The company turned to FireMon to replace its incumbent platform.

FireMon implemented its firewall policy management platform, which provided automated change workflows, continuous compliance assessment, and real-time visibility. The solution natively resolved Panorama hierarchies and nested objects, closing gaps the previous tool could not handle. As a result, the customer achieved a 95% reduction in firewall rule change effort, reclaimed 30% of engineer time, and established continuous compliance readiness for multiple frameworks. FireMon delivered a 7.5x ROI within the first year, resulting in over $1.2M in annual enterprise-wide savings.
