Firewall configuration audit

Find the firewall rule an attacker would find first.

A firewall is only as strong as its configuration. ConfGoOne reviews FortiGate, Palo Alto, Check Point, Cisco ASA, SonicWall, pfSense and Juniper configs for over-permissive rules, exposed management, weak VPN settings and missing logging — and shows how they chain into a real attack path.

What ConfGoOne checks

A sample of the real checks in ConfGoOne's rule packs — each one reported with the evidence from your file and the fix.

CriticalPalo Alto: any-any permit policy
CriticalManagement access over Telnet or HTTP
CriticalFortiGate: admin account without two-factor authentication
CriticalFortiGate: SSL VPN web mode enabled
HighAdmin lockout threshold missing or too high
HighTraffic logging not enabled on security policies
HighIPS / threat-prevention profile not applied
HighSyslog not forwarded to a remote server
HighManagement interface not restricted by IP
HighURL filtering / DNS security not enabled

Rules reviewed in context

Over-permissive rules, shadowed policies and exposed management are judged together — not as a flat list of warnings.

Attack paths, not just findings

See how an exposed admin interface plus a weak password policy becomes full control of the firewall, ranked by danger.

Report your auditor accepts

Export to HTML, PDF or Word with every finding mapped to PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, NIST and CIS.

How it works

No setup, no agent, no "start scan" button.

Open the config

A configuration file, a live connection or a screen capture — whichever you can get.

It reviews itself

The device type is recognised and every setting is checked the moment the file opens.

Fix and report

Work through the findings with their fix commands, then export HTML, PDF, Word or a STIG checklist.

Questions

How do I audit a firewall configuration?

Export the configuration from the firewall (for example a FortiGate backup, a PAN-OS running-config XML or an ASA show running-config) and open it in ConfGoOne. The vendor is detected automatically and the review starts at once.

Which firewalls are supported?

Fortinet FortiGate, Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS, Check Point, Cisco ASA, Cisco Firepower Threat Defense, SonicWall, pfSense and Juniper.

Does it help with PCI-DSS firewall requirements?

Yes. Findings are mapped to PCI-DSS v4.0 requirements, and you can audit against PCI-DSS only so the report covers just that standard.

Does ConfGoOne connect to my firewall?

It does not need to — a configuration file is enough. Live connection and screen capture are also available when you cannot export a file.
