Firewalls are the bouncers of your network—checking IDs so only the right traffic gets in. But managing them? It can feel like crafting Swiss watch innards: intricate, painstaking, and—let’s be honest—a bit exhausting. Welcome to “firewall fatigue.”
What Is Firewall Fatigue in Banks?
In the UK, financial institutions are leading global cybersecurity budgets—many consider it their single biggest expense. At the same time, they’re also investing in ethical hacking exercises like CBEST, and regular cyberwar simulations to test their resilience (Ref: The Guardian).
The Security Risks of Overcomplicated Firewalls
Complex configurations, constant patching, false positives—it’s easy for in‑house teams to get overwhelmed. But dull defenses mean vulnerabilities creep through the cracks. What’s needed? Smart, scalable management that works for you, without draining you.
