Overall Satisfaction with FireMon

We use FireMon to validate rules, test traffic pathing and to do TFAs for minimizing overly permissive rules.
  • TFA and TFA output is fantastic
  • Finding misconfigured rules is very easy
  • We arent leveraging very much from FireMon
  • The support site isnt the best
The platform allows us to differentiate between the various departments that access the platform based on different job and access requirements.
  • our ROI has been nonexistent since we have had licenses bought year over year that have not been deployed.

Do you think FireMon delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with FireMon's feature set?

Yes

Did FireMon live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of FireMon go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy FireMon again?

No

OSSEC is open source and FM is much better from GUI and supportability stand points. Tufin and FireMon are very comparable
The ability to find an overly permissive rule and then leverage TFA to monitor the rule's traffic with the output being easily consumable is incredibly valuable.
