Visual analysis of complex firewall configurations

Abstract Firewalls have become essential components in the security concept of almost any modern computer network. Due to their relevance and central location in the network, their programming logic often survives several generations of administrators and hardware. Understanding the logic behind a firewall configuration is thus an important but challenging task for a network administrator. In general, there is a tendency to add new rules while old rules are only rarely changed or removed due to unexpected consequences in the network. In this paper we present a visualization tool to support the network administrator in this complex task of understanding firewall rule sets and object group definitions. The tool consists of a hierarchical sunburst visualization, which logically groups rules or object groups according to their common characteristics, a color-linked configuration editor and classical tree view components for rules and object groups. All these components are interactively linked to enable both exploratory and hypotheses testing tasks aimed at understanding the complex functionality of a firewall configuration. To verify our design, we present two case studies on the analysis of rule usage and on nested object groups and collected feedback from five firewall administrators.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
