Leading executives, managers, and experts from small and midsize businesses and large enterprises share their insights and perspectives with bMighty on a host of IT issues, challenges, and opportunities that SMBs face.
Firewalls are one of those things you notice when they fail. Until your business has experienced a major security breach, you may not have given your firewall any thought at all. That's a risk to the health of your IT infrastructure and could cost you to lose valuable, or confidential, business and customer data. Avishai Wool, co-founder and CTO of AlgoSec, a provider of network security life-cycle, firewall, and security risk management solutions, talks with bMighty about the importance of firewalls and how small and midsize businesses can minimize threats with better firewall management.
bMighty: What problems do small and midsize businesses have managing their firewalls?
Wool: Firewall management is potentially complex. It requires expertise and in a small or midsize business that doesn't have a huge IT staff, that expertise is probably not there. This could lead to problems such as poorly written rules that create risk and lead to losing control of your business' network. It could lead to having a firewall that is so complicated that no one understands what is going on.
