Why Small Businesses Need Firewall Reviews

Regular review removes forgotten access, risky exposure and undocumented exceptions.

18 July 2026 · 6 min read

Firewall rules accumulate during installations, migrations and urgent incidents.

Review

  • Internet-exposed services
  • Unused rules
  • Broad source networks
  • Administrative access
  • VPN settings
  • Logging

Every rule should have an owner, reason and review date.
