RE: Firewalls management tools

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it there is a product called Solsoft...
they specialize in providing a centralized firewall management solution,
which will also allow an end user or engineer the ability to migrate
from one firewall vendor to another...

Hi!
Working on multiple firewalls equipments (checkpoint / Fortinet /
Netscreen...), I have identified two main subjects to improve our
management tasks:
- Improving firewall rules set on the complete firewall pool;
- Mapping network flows :
Being able to list all (authorised) flows between two hosts or
subnets;
Being able to quickly find a firewall with a deny rule on an
operational flow;
- Track and control device configuration

In order to reach our goal, I have identified the following
(-commercial-) products:
- Firewall Analyser (Algosec)
- Skybox assure
- Firemon from secure Passage
- SecureTrack from Tufin
- RedSeal SRM (more wide product but it seems to respond to my primary
purpose)
- Firewall manager from Solsoft.

=> Does anyone have a first experience on this kind of product?
=> Do you think it would be better to use several firewall management
solutions from each specific vendor?


Thank You!
