Firewall Management Services
A firewall only protects you if it is set up properly and kept up to date. Our firewall management services cover the full life of your firewall: initial setup, clean rules, firmware updates, VPN, monitoring and regular reviews, so it keeps doing its job as your business changes.

Overview
What is firewall management?
Firewall management is the ongoing work of configuring, updating and monitoring a firewall. It includes writing and cleaning up rules, applying firmware and security updates, managing VPN users, reviewing logs and making changes safely when the business needs them.
Many firewalls are installed once and then left alone. Over time, temporary rules stay open, firmware falls behind and nobody reads the alerts. A managed firewall service keeps the firewall tidy, current and watched.
- Clean, documented rules
- Firmware and signatures kept current
- Alerts reviewed by our team

FAQs
Firewall Management FAQs
Firewall Management FAQs
What are firewall management services?
Firewall management services cover the setup, rule changes, updates, VPN management, monitoring and reviews needed to keep a firewall effective.
Why does a firewall need ongoing management?
Rules pile up, firmware falls behind and new threats appear. Without regular care, a firewall slowly becomes less effective.
Which firewall brands do you manage?
We supply and manage Sophos firewalls, and can review and manage other business firewall brands and cloud firewalls after an assessment.
Can you take over a firewall someone else installed?
Yes. We review the current configuration, document it, fix risky rules and then manage it going forward.
How are rule changes requested?
You raise a request with us, we review it for risk, make the change in an agreed window and record it.
