Perimeter & Firewall Engineering
Every firewall we take over has a rule near the top that nobody dares delete.
It was added during a crisis in 2022 to make something work, it is wide open, and the person who added it has left. Meanwhile the security subscriptions lapsed eight months ago, so the expensive box is passing traffic without inspecting it. The hardware was never the problem. The discipline around it was.
Sounds familiar?
If any of these sound like your site — this is exactly the problem this service exists to remove.
How we solve it
Fortinet is our daily driver
We design and run FortiGate deployments weekly — 60F-class units for branch offices up to mid-range clusters. IPS, web filtering and SSL inspection tuned against your real traffic, because the factory defaults inspect very little.
Rules with names and owners
Every rule states what it is for. Stale and shadowed rules get retired on a schedule. When an auditor asks why port 3389 is open to a vendor, the answer is written next to the rule.
Failover we test during office hours
Paired firewalls, and we fail them over deliberately while the office works. If a failover only works in theory, you do not have failover; you have a second firewall.
Renewals handled before they lapse
The day a security subscription expires, protection stops silently. Ours are tracked in the same system that tracks everything else we manage, with reminders that reach a human.
Perimeter & Firewall Engineering is just one of the things we do.
Most clients only find out when we tell them: the same team designs, supplies and maintains everything on this list — under one contract, one invoice.
The full A to Z
And we supply the hardware too — A to Z. PCs, laptops, servers, printers, network gear, CCTV, firewalls, licences: 7,000+ products with itemised quotations in one working day, on our own platform.
