Firewall Rule Optimizer

Audit and optimize firewall policy across five vendors — in your browser

Paste or upload a firewall configuration and the tool instantly finds shadowed, redundant, mergeable and overly-permissive rules, maps the findings to CIS and PCI-DSS, lets you simulate a proposed rule before you commit it, and produces a clean optimized rule set together with a 0–100 Security Score.

Runs 100% in your browser. No configuration is ever uploaded — your firewall data never leaves your computer.

Firewall Rule Optimizer

What it does

  • Security Score 0–100 with a grade, and a breakdown of exactly where points were lost
  • Detects shadowed, redundant, mergeable and overly-permissive (any-any) rules, plus unused rules from hit-count data
  • Threat intel from CISA KEV — exposed services matched against actively-exploited CVEs
  • Compliance mapping to CIS and PCI-DSS, Zero Trust maturity (NIST 800-207) and MITRE ATT&CK
  • DDoS readiness score with vendor-specific hardening rule templates, and a segmentation score for lateral-movement resistance
  • What-if simulator and packet tracer — see which rule wins for a given flow, and test a rule before committing it
  • Zone-to-zone exposure heatmap and config diff against a previous version
  • Generates a paste-ready optimized config, plus HTML/PDF reports and rule CSV

Who it helps

  • Teams carrying years of accumulated firewall policy
  • Organizations preparing for a CIS or PCI-DSS audit
  • Anyone migrating or replacing a firewall who wants a clean rule set to carry over
  • Change-review processes that need evidence before a rule goes live
