FireMon
FireMon helps organizations manage and analyze security policy across multi-vendor firewalls, cloud networks, and microsegmentation environments. Security Manager is the required foundation for policy visibility, compliance, and governance. Optional modules add change-workflow automation, rule optimization, pre-change risk simulation, and AI-powered analytics. Named integrations include Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Cisco, Check Point, AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Illumio, and ServiceNow. Its ServiceNow connection links firewall change requests with policy validation, approvals, implementation status, and audit evidence. FireMon says it is certified to support over 15,000 devices and 25 million rules, with response times under 10 seconds. The platform uses a hybrid deployment model; documentation describes server deployments and browser access. The maker offers a free firewall assessment with a customized report and dashboard, as well as a free trial, but no free plan. Security Manager pricing depends on environment size, selected modules, and support tier. Cloud Defense Pro is listed at $200 a month per cloud account.
