Network Computing: Skybox Brings Firewall Management to the Masses

by Andrew Conry

For busy IT and security administrators, firewalls are akin to the home attic--a lot of stuff accumulates in there over time, and you'd feel better if you cleaned it out, but who's got time? New software from Skybox Security aims to help mid-size shops stop making excuses. The software, called Skybox CertiFire, collects and analyzes firewall configurations to help ensure firewall rules match corporate security policies, spot critical gaps that could lead to trouble and eliminate redundant rules.
