SolarWinds erases all the pain of complying firewall policies to corporate or regulatory requirements. In addition, it provides a complete translation of detailed technical checks to PCI control items. Developed with the help of expert QSAs, we provide you all the mappings in a single PCI report, with explanatory text and the detailed rules controlling IP traffic flow included.

Take a look at the audit tool voted the most comprehensive, intuitive and easy to use by so many network and security engineers.

Although there are many products to support the firewall change lifecycle, these are not designed to be used in-field for conducting firewall audits. Firewall Security Manager is a windows desktop tool that analyzes configurations and produces full depth reports. If you are looking for a best-in-class PCI firewall audit tool for completeness and accuracy of security analytics, then look no further than SolarWinds Firewall Security Manager.

Products that primarily track changes in configurations can help with a preliminary review of rules that are visibly insecure, but this is not a satisfactory approach for analyzing the risks to hosts containing sensitive cardholder data. Only with analysis of the services allowed when ACLs, NATs and routes are working together can you be sure of the results. Except for highly efficient and small rulebases, a text-based assessment of errors will be incomplete and likely to produce a large number of false positives that will unnecessarily prolong your review and justification process.

SolarWinds' solution for PCI DSS compliance is successfully used by Fortune 100 and small businesses alike. It works on complex rulebases in mixed vendor firewall environments including situations with thousands of rules, network and service objects and an extremely high number of rule overlaps. The professional reports produced by the tool identify high risk violations and the technical detail to correct every one of them. Our QSA partners from leading audit firms who have standardized on SolarWinds for firewall audits have comfortably focused efforts on process review and remediation recommendations and always deliver projects on time and budget.

With SolarWinds Firewall Security Manager you no longer need to worry about a lack of consistent logs or organizational changes that could prevent you from obtaining accurate documentation. Now all you need to identify your high risk PCI violations can be automatically captured from your configurations.
