AWS Firewall Manager is well suited for cloud environments that have a lot to manage and maintain. If you have a smaller scale cloud environment or on premise setup this may not be for you.

The support team needs to be improved especially in their response and awareness about recent bugs in their solution. For example, sometimes they are not aware about how to integrate specific vendors like Microsoft Azure and they still don't have answers to it until now.

Alternatives Considered
For a
business that doesn't use any software or applications that will generate high
volumes of traffic, AWS Firewall Manager is the ideal choice. The method of
creating an initial configuration and user-friendliness is simple. Along with
other AWS services, we also created portals for the HR division, with a focus
on recruitment. we also created a User Interface and a set of tools. The AWS
Firewall Manager is the only thing we need.

Skybox performs better than Tufin and RedSeal and while AlgoSec performs as well, it requires far more manual configuration and customization than Skybox

  • Reduces cost in terms of time and money to spend in remediation activity.
  • Improve the network topology and then it's possibile to reduce cost of network/security appliances where they're not necessary.
  • The cost of the solution is not trivial when the number of network appliances is big.
