License Management - Manage, Unmanage Firewall Devices in Firewall AnalyzerFirewall Analyzer offers a powerful and rich feature to manage and unmanage the devices. It offers a greater degree of flexibility to manage the number of devices that can be monitored by using Firewall Analyzer.Click the Settings > Firewall > Admin > License Management link to manage/unmanage/delete devices. On clicking the link License Management page opens up.On top of the page, the details of the license you have purchased will be displayed. License Details Value Description Max Number of Devices : 50 Total number of device licenses purchased Managed Devices : 33 Number of devices getting managed Remaining Number of Devices : 17 Remaining number of device licenses available for managing devices License Type : Premium Type of license i.e., Professional, Premium, Trial -->You will find the list of devices currently added to the Firewall Analyzer for monitoring and their status of getting managed or unmanaged. The tabular list contains individual and select all devices check boxes. On top and bottom of the list, there are three buttons available for operations. The operations are Manage, Unmanage, and Delete. All the devices added to the Firewall Analyzer server will be listed in this page. From the list of added devices, select one or multiple devices using the check boxes against the respective devices. To select all the devices, select the check box in the table/list header.ManageOnly the managed devices logs will be parsed and archived. Number of managed devices cannot exceed number of licensed devices. Select required device(s) or select all devices to manage. Click the Manage button. The selected device will be managed.UnmanageThe unmanaged device logs will be dropped and not archived during the unmanaged period. As an ad-hoc option, if you want to manage a particular critical device and number of licensed devices is exceeding, you can unmanage less critical device(s) and manage the critically required device. We would recommend you to buy more device licenses to get uninterrupted performance. Select required device(s) or select all devices to unmanage. Click the Unmanage button. The selected device will be unmanaged.DeleteDelete the devices from the list of devices. When the device(s) are deleted, all related information of the device(s) will be removed from the database. Select required device(s) or select all devices to delete. Click the Delete button. The selected device will be deleted. Note: You can select multiple devices and manage/unmanage/delete them. If you want to monitor Firewall device in High Availability mode, ensure that Firewall Analyzer is bound to one source (that is a single IP Address/host name), then that source is considered as one device license. Note:​ Each Virtual Firewall (vdom) monitored separately will be considered as one Firewall

Firewall Policy AnalyzerA no-risk, no-cost firewall analyzer to help enhance your security posture. One misconfigured rule is one too many Misconfigurations are a well-documented source of the expanding cybersecurity gap, especially when it comes to an organization’s firewall. With traditional rules-based firewall setups becoming cumbersome to manage manually as environments grow, human errors can quickly add up if not identified and corrected, compromising your entire security infrastructure.FireMon’s firewall Policy Analyzer simplifies the process of identifying and correcting misconfigurations, providing a fast, reliable solution to strengthen your security posture and close cybersecurity gaps. “99% of firewall breaches will be caused by misconfigurations, not firewalls.” Policy Analyzer that Reduces Risk FireMon Policy Analyzer is a complimentary firewall rule analysis solution that provides best practices and suggestions to reduce policy-related risk. Within minutes, our firewall analyzer shares a diagnostic report outlining the security hygiene of a single firewall configuration in your environment, complete with key areas of interest and remediation recommendations. Get a Demo FireMon Policy Analyzer Delivers: Assessment results available in minutes with no installation, setup, or dedicated hardware Key results include overly permissive, risky access, vendor hardening, and policy quality warnings Comprehensive analysis highlights gaps in compliance and security posture, enabling quick remediation and improved policy management Validation to see if changes improve diagnostic scores Downloadable reports to dive deeper into the results and share with others Top remediation recommendations based on FireMon’s 20+ years of experience Get a demo Protect Your Enterprise with Comprehensive Firewall Analyzer Tools Enhance security and compliance with advanced tools to monitor logs, analyze traffic in real time, and review policies—ensuring your firewall stays optimized and secure.

Windows firewall monitoring using EventLog Analyzer This tutorial helps you navigate the capabilities of EventLog Analyzer in monitoring Windows firewall. Before you start viewing the audit reports, enabling the detection rules, and generating compliance reports, ensure that you've enabled logging for firewalls in the EventLog Analyzer console. Monitoring Windows firewalls using EventLog Analyzer: Use cases EventLog Analyzer covers the following firewall monitoring use cases with its security reports. These reports are predefined and can be scheduled to be generated at specific times and distributed over email. Use Case Description Why implement? Available reports Firewall rule configuration management Monitor and manage all changes to firewall rules, settings, and group policies to ensure a secure and optimized network environment. Ensures adherence to security policies, maintains a strong security posture, and simplifies compliance audits. Windows Firewall Rule Added Windows Firewall Rule Modified Windows Firewall Rule Deleted Windows Firewall Settings Changed Monitor Group Policy-driven changes Logs changes to firewall settings implemented through group policies across the network. Ensure centralized configurations are not misused or overridden. Windows Firewall Group Policy Changes Audit firewall settings restorations Identifies instances of firewall settings being restored to defaults, which might lower security. Detect intentional or accidental rollbacks that can weaken protection. Windows Firewall Settings Restored Threat detection use cases The following table lists the threat detection use cases covered for firewalls by EventLog Analyzer. The solution also offers a custom correlation rule builder for creating detection rules by users. Use Case Description Why implement? Available detection alerts and correlation rules Firewall spoof attack Detect attempts to impersonate trusted devices in order to bypass firewall security. Spoofing can allow unauthorized access to a network, bypassing security measures. The Firewall Spoof Attack alert profile detects and alerts on network traffic that mimics trusted devices, helping identify unauthorized access attempts. Firewall internet protocol half-scan attack Identify incomplete or partial scan attempts targeting open ports to gather network information. A half-scan attack is often used for reconnaissance, allowing attackers to exploit vulnerabilities later. The Firewall Internet Protocol Half-Scan Attack alert profile detects and alerts on incomplete scanning activities targeting open ports, providing visibility into suspicious reconnaissance behavior. Firewall flood attack Monitor for high volumes of traffic aiming to overwhelm firewall resources or disrupt communication. Flood attacks exhaust system resources, potentially causing service outages or slowing down critical services. The Firewall Flood Attack alert profile detects and alerts on high-volume traffic patterns that could overwhelm system resources, assisting in identifying flood-based attacks. Firewall ping of death attack Detect oversized or malformed ICMP packets designed to crash or freeze devices within the network. A ping of death can lead to device crashes or system instability, making the network vulnerable to other attacks. The Firewall Ping of Death Attack alert profile detects and alerts on unusually large or malformed ICMP packets, signaling potential ping of death attacks aimed at crashing systems. Firewall SYN attack Identify SYN flood attacks, where malicious traffic targets the connection table of a firewall. SYN attacks overwhelm connection tables, causing system slowdowns
