Detect Unauthorized Firewall Changes

Firewall Sync

Playbook is firewall sync. It works by creating a central web console for all your firewalling devices. The console grabs your firewall rules and places them under version control, so your team can work on them with change tracking, review, and rollback. Then, when you’re ready to deploy a change, you click a button and Playbook handles the details.

Firewall Rule Analysis

Playbook includes full parse engines for the firewalls it supports. It knows whether your rules are valid, and it knows how to figure out whether they permit or deny traffic, which hosts they refer to, and for what protocols and applications.

Intelligent Search

Keeping track of firewalls: it's a huge institutional burden. When Accounting apps need to talk to HR's database, you need to know what to reconfigure to allow traffic. Playbook's Intelligent Search does this work for you. It understands your rules and answers key questions, like, what devices refer to IP addresses in a CIDR subnet, or what devices need to change to block a service site-wide.

Searchable, Syndicatable Timeline

All changes and events in Playbook are tracked in a continuous timeline, which can be queried and filtered by device and kind. Engineers can also securely subscribe to the timeline in an RSS feed reader to stay up to date with network changes.
