Network Device Hardening Review
The network infrastructure supports every connected host, application,
database, and client throughout the organization. Securing the network,
both at the perimeter as well as internally, is a critical component of
information security. Using a combination of analysis tools and manual
reviews, Halock will analyze the configurations of network devices such
as core routers, network switches and firewalls to identify security
risks and to evaluate adherence to security best practices. Further
review of the relevant portions of the infrastructure is conducted using
the network diagrams as well as through interview where deemed
appropriate.
- Evaluate access control and ensure principles of least privilege
are utilized
- Ensure device configuration does not introduce vulnerabilities into
the environment
- Test the operational effectiveness of security policies,
procedures, and standards
