Algosec Firewall Analyzer (AFA) collects policy and configuration information from Cisco ASA firewalls, switches, and routers. Algosec helps customers manage complex sets of policies and model risk in advance of policy changes. The Algosec solution helps customers meet audit requirements.

Product Integrations

  • Secure Firewall: AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer (AFA) collects policy and configuration information from Cisco Secure Firewall and Cisco Secure Firewall ASA as well as Cisco switches and routers. AlgoSec helps customers manage complex sets of policies and model risk in advance of automated policy changes. AlgoSec solutions help customers meet audit requirements.
  • Secure Workload: AlgoSec allows Cisco Workload-enforced micro-segmentation policies to be applied beyond the native software and hardware sensors. AlgoSec extends the segmentation policy originating from Cisco Workload to all supported on-premise, cloud, and SDN technologies. AlgoSec AppViz addon connects to the Workload REST API and Kafka broker to collect enforced policies for the relevant applications and publishes the segmentation policies over Kafka in real time. AlgoSec AppViz collects all enforced policies, which will become application flows in AppViz. AlgoSec updates firewall rules or other infrastructure elements to enforce relative firewall elements.
