“Unused rules accumulate”
Problem: Policies slowly bloat with unused/expired rules and redundant objects between review cycles.
Output: Opinnate continuously identifies cleanup candidates and can apply safe hardening actions on a schedule.
“Hardening depends on manual triggers”
Problem: Teams only harden after incidents or audits because it requires heavy coordination and time.
Output: Automated workflows run continuously (or on schedule), reducing the need for manual triggering and firefighting.
“Configuration drift across devices”
Problem: Standards slip over time and hygiene differs across firewalls
Output: Opinnate tracks drift and produces prioritized actions and reports to maintain consistent hardening posture.
How Opinnate delivers continuous hardening
Continuous hardening is a loop: detect → prioritize → act → verify — repeat automatically.
Delivery components:
to surface shadowed/unused/expired items
(cleanup, dedupe, consolidation) executed safely and repeatedly
for controlled tightening and lifecycle rules (where needed)
via change tracking, revision history, and scheduled reporting
to broaden hardening beyond firewalls (when available)
