Security Devices Configuration Review

At Cyberintelsys Consulting Services, our Security Devices Configuration Review service ensures that critical perimeter and internal security appliances such as firewalls, routers, switches, IDS/IPS, and UTM systems are correctly configured to defend against evolving cyber threats. We identify configuration weaknesses and misalignments that could expose your organization to unnecessary risk and provide actionable recommendations to strengthen device-level security.

What is Security Devices Configuration Review?
Security Devices Configuration Review is a structured assessment of the configurations, rule sets, firmware, and policies of your network security devices. It verifies whether these systems are aligned with industry best practices, organizational policies, and regulatory requirements — and identifies gaps that attackers can exploit due to poor configuration, outdated firmware, or over-permissive rules.
The objective is to ensure that all network defense mechanisms are:
  • Correctly configured
  • Minimally exposed
  • Logically segmented
  • Operating with the least privilege required

Attack Surface Reduction

Removes unnecessary services, weak rules, and insecure protocols to minimize the exposure of your infrastructure.

Compliance Readiness

Aligns with standards such as ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and NIST by validating device configurations and security enforcement.

Policy Enforcement Validation

Ensures your defined security policies are effectively implemented across all layers of network security.

Visibility & Control Improvement

Enables proper logging, alerting, and monitoring to improve incident detection and response readiness.

Security Devices in Scope

A secure network starts with assessing every device—inside and out.

Firewalls (Next-Gen, Traditional)

Intrusion Detection & Prevention Systems 

Routers & Switches

Unified Threat Management Appliances

Web Application Firewalls (WAF)
