Doğuş Teknoloji improves firewall change speed with server cloning and centralized rule optimization
Overview
Doğuş Teknoloji wanted to reduce the operational effort and error risk created by managing large volumes of firewall changes across multiple devices—especially during infrastructure changes and migrations.
Challenge
Before Opinnate, server cloning created a significant workload, and broad rules increased device load while making tightening efforts harder and riskier. Managing many rules across multiple devices also increased the likelihood of operational mistakes.
Why Opinnate
During evaluation, Doğuş Teknoloji compared multiple NSPM solutions (including Tufin and AlgoSec) and selected Opinnate based on factors such as:
- Easy-to-use web UI
- Object cloning
- Turkish global support and vendor presence
- Regulatory compliance reporting
- Topology creation/updates, ITSM integration, and organization-specific customization
- Policy/object analysis, reporting, and shadow rule analysis
Implementation
Doğuş Teknoloji emphasized the value of Opinnate support during POC and installation, noting fast responses and a smooth setup experience.
Results
With Opinnate, Doğuş Teknoloji reported measurable acceleration and operational gains:
- 100% faster cleanup of expired rules
- 90% increase in rule update speed via Server Cloning and Decommission
- Improved compliance scores and reduced attack surface by addressing risky rules, while simplifying the firewall change workflow
- Lower workload and reduced risk scores; easier policy strengthening and automation
Key capabilities used
- Shadow rule cleanup, expired/disabled rule handling, and optimization workflows
