Introduction

Whether you’re protecting a small business, a distributed enterprise or multiple businesses, your network security can get overwhelmed by operational disarrays, unseen risks and regulatory demands. Historically, efficient firewall management practices have mostly relied on dependable systems and operation control measures. However, frequent errors, misconfigurations and perhaps even violations of those controls remain to be constant challenges for well-run Security Operation Centers (SOCs). SonicWall Network Security Manager (NSM), a multi-tenant centralized firewall manager, allows you to centrally manage all firewall operations error-free by adhering to auditable workflows. Reporting and Analytics¹,² give single-pane visibility and lets you monitor and uncover threats by unifying and correlating logs across all firewalls. NSM also helps you stay compliant as it provides full audit trails of every configuration change and granular reporting. The solution scales to any size organization that manages networks with up to thousands of firewall devices deployed across many locations. NSM does it all with less effort and time.
