By AlgoSec

4.5
(234 Ratings)

We have been using Algosec on or company for more than 8 years now. Our main usage is to audit our firewall policies and get a daily report on all of them in case the report security rate for some reason drops (maybe someone added a firewall rule that has opened more accesses than it should). This helps us to have control on our firewalls and on the overall network security. It also helps us on our daily operations to understand if for example a flow from a specific source to a specific destination is already opened or not, by searching on the firewall policies using Algosec.

By NetBrain

(191 Ratings)

This tool was a welcome addition for our networking team as they finally had a tool that would help reduce the number of inbound questions to them regarding how things were mapped or worked. The network mapping and being able to visualize it really helped to streamline these conversations with end users as well as trouble shooting as path analysis was more easily done along with performance monotiring for any spikes or blocks. We really enjoyed being able to finally expose our network not only as a generated map but at times a live map to really make things transparent for all team members. This helped our network team to not only visualize but also in real time trouble shoot bottle necks before issues impacted more of our network.

Overall, we ha a good experience with Tufin. There are still some areas that require improvement (Such as Gui enhancements and certain functions), but in general, the platform is very helpful, especially when compliance is involved. Tufin allows us to gain better visibility into our network and understand what is happening based on our configurations, suck risky ports and usage.

My experience with Red Hat Ansible has been highly positive. It's a powerful automation tool that significantly simplifies confugation management, application deployment and task automation. I particularly appreciate its agentless arhitecture and the use of YAML based playbook, which make it both efficient and easy to understand.
