Description

Firewalls have an important role in network security. However, managing firewall policies is an extremely complex task because the large number of interacting rules in single or distributed firewalls significantly increases the possibility of policy misconfiguration and network vulnerabilities. Moreover, due to low-level representation of firewall rules, the semantic of firewall policies become very incomprehensible, which makes inspecting of firewall policy’s properties a difficult and error-prone task. In Existing approach they can only detect the firewall policy anomaly can’t resolving these policy, and also policy conflict detection time was also increased. Therefore in our proposed, we represent an innovative policy anomaly management framework for firewalls, adopting a rule-based segmentation technique to identify policy anomalies and derive effective anomaly resolutions. In particular, we articulate a firewall rule, providing an intuitive cognitive sense about policy anomaly. After detecting the policy conflict we need to resolve these conflicts. We can resolve the conflict based on the some risk assessment value. Based on these risk value conflict rule can be effectively resolved. After resolving these conflicts, we need to re-order the rule. We can re-order the rule based on the Dynamic rule –reordering algorithm.
