Confident Firewall Policy Configuration Management Using Description Logic
Overview The provisioning of a firewall is one of the first important steps toward securing access control to a network. However, the effectiveness of a firewall's access control may be limited or compromised by poor configuration and management of firewall policy decisions. Firewall configuration management involves either the use of a command-line interface with a deep knowledge requirement of the firewall's complex low-level command syntax, or to a limited extent, the use of a graphical management console. Confidence in a firewall configuration is hampered by the complexity of properly comprehending a configuration that achieves the desired business-level security requirements.
