My main use case for AlgoSec is for the management of all the firewalls and policy rule sets, including everything.

In many locations, I work as a system integrator, so my clients use multiple products including Fortinet, Cisco ASA, and Check Point, facing issues in scenarios where they have 3,000 to 4,000 policies, many of which haven't been used in two to three years. They don't know which policies need to be removed or if a particular policy is working or not, so for that purpose, we suggest all clients implement AlgoSec on their premises to verify which policies are appropriate for their organization, and based on that, we modify the firewall policies accordingly.

I have worked with the BFSI sector, where they have multiple firewalls in data centers with varying architectures; for example, the perimeter firewalls could be Check Point or Palo Alto while the internal firewalls might be FortiGate or Cisco ASA. Managing both firewalls on different platforms is not easy for a technical person, but after implementing AlgoSec in their premises, we can handle multiple firewall policies in a single interface and push policies according to our requirements, even if we have 10 to 15 firewalls from different OEMs.

AlgoSec offers multiple options, including firewall management and API management; I have only worked with the firewall management part and found that we can manage not only some specific products but also multiple vendors including Cisco, FortiGate, Check Point, and others all in a single platform, which I consider to be its best feature.

Implementing AlgoSec has reduced time consumption significantly; for instance, if we need to remove policies from 14 to 15 firewalls and add new ones, it can typically be accomplished within one to two clicks. That's one of the best points I have seen, especially since we can also view the topology, which is another significant advantage in AlgoSec.

AlgoSec is really helpful for complying with regulatory requirements because during audits and compliance checks, we need to quickly delete unwanted policies. If any unwanted policies are enabled, they can pose security risks, as attackers could exploit them. Manually checking thousands of policies is not feasible, but AlgoSec helps us by showing which policies may cause impact and guiding our remediation efforts.

The integration with the ticketing system is excellent; AlgoSec has its own ticketing tool that tracks what policies have been deleted or added while we upload and change firewall data, which is very helpful.

Right now, pushing policies is restricted to some OEMs; we can delete unwanted policies for many OEMs, but while pushing new policies, I've noticed challenges with Fortinet and Sophos or SonicWall. If support for multiple OEM vendors is improved, it would be really helpful, and providing service addresses or profiles in AlgoSec would be beneficial for attracting multiple customers, allowing easier management.

I have seen that the documentation provided is a bit basic; having a professional or standard template would be really helpful.

AlgoSec's scalability is impressive; there are no limitations on the number of firewalls we can manage. Even as my organization grows, I can add multiple firewalls without restriction, making it highly convenient.

Customer support for AlgoSec is really good; whenever an issue arises, they provide support as per the standard services or license base.

AlgoSec is very easy to use and manage, though the installation process can be challenging due to the Linux or UNIX-based implementation, which may pose issues initially.

Implementing AlgoSec has saved a lot of time in management, and consequently reduced costs. For example, at 15 locations already equipped with three to four OEM firewalls, I would normally need to purchase separate management tools, but with AlgoSec, I can manage all the firewalls through a single GUI without needing third-party tools, which saves time and resources.

Overall, my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing has been very good.

In 2023 and 2024, I first encountered the product, and after the AlgoSec team approached us for implementation, it proved to be very helpful. When I implemented it for the first time, customers appreciated that they did not need to manage multiple interfaces for firewall or API purposes, as a single interface could manage everything, making it easier for engineers to manage their IT devices and reducing time consumption.

There have been instances of needing an expert in Linux or UNIX-based systems to address issues as it is a complete UNIX-based device.

My overall review rating for AlgoSec is 8 out of 10.

My main use case for AlgoSec is to control and streamline the firewall policy across multiple vendor security platforms and ensure that changes are implemented in a secure and standardized manner.

When a new connectivity requirement comes in as a technical request, we define the source, destination, and the service that needs to be allowed. AlgoSec evaluates the entire path flow and based on that, it highlights required changes across relevant firewalls. We review it and implement accordingly. This is really helpful to avoid manual device-by-device verification.

The most valuable feature of AlgoSec is traffic flow analysis, which is very useful to visualize the packet path across the devices. The second thing is multi-platform compatibility that supports different firewall vendors such as Palo Alto, Fortinet, and other OEM firewalls.

The traffic flow analysis feature of AlgoSec has helped me in my day-to-day work as it gives a complete end-to-end view of how traffic moves through the network. Instead of manually checking multiple firewalls, routing paths, and NAT rules, this analysis tells us if the traffic will pass or get blocked and which device is allowing or denying. This analysis is really useful in daily operations.

AlgoSec has positively impacted my organization by hastening the process of firewall requests, improving visibility across the layers, and reducing misconfiguration. Overall operations have become more controlled and efficient.

Troubleshooting effort has been reduced by 40 to 60%, cleaner firewall policies have been developed over time, and change execution time has also been reduced.

AlgoSec is deployed on-premises in our organization, integrated with our internal network and firewall for better control. I would rate this product an 8 overall.

A quick example using AlgoSec is that we had a request to allow an application server in the internal network to access a database in a restricted zone over TCP 1443. Instead of manually checking each firewall, we entered the source and destination port and the services into AlgoSec change request workflow. AlgoSec automatically analyzed the path across multiple firewalls, identified where rules were missing, and flagged that one existing rule in the perimeter firewall was too broad. It recommended creating a more specific rule and tightening the existing one. We implemented the suggested rules, validated connectivity using simulation, and attached the AlgoSec risk and compliance report to the ticket. The change was approved quickly, and we avoided creating overly permissive access.

The feature we use most in AlgoSec is the automated firewall change management and path analysis. Most of our day-to-day work involves processing network access requests. AlgoSec lets us simulate traffic flows, identify which firewalls are in the path, and automatically suggest the exact rule which is needed. This eliminates manual checks across multiple devices and significantly speeds up approvals. This brings the most value because it reduces change implementation time, minimizes human error in the firewall rules, prevents overly permissive access, and provides built-in risk, compliance, and validation.

AlgoSec has impacted us positively. Before AlgoSec, access requests required manual firewall review, which was time-consuming and error-prone. With the automatic path analysis and rule recommendation, we can process changes much faster and with more confidence. It also gave us clear visibility into application connectivity and helped identify overlapping, permissive, and unused rules, improving our overall security posture. Additionally, the built-in compliance checks and audit reports reduce the effort needed for audits and policy reviews, saving time for both security and network teams.
