Hello!!
Those of you familiar with Checkpoint Firewall-1 may have seen a series of Perl 5
scripts which take that products configuration files (ie the .W and objects.C files)
and turn them into a human readable report of the firewall rules and list of Firewall
objects.
What I am wondering is if someone out there in the ISS community has done something
similar for ISS RealSecure .policy files?
If they have, would they be willing to share their code with me / all of us?
If they havent.....are there any Perl gurus willing to take up the challenge?
Essentially, what personnally think would look cool is a view very similar to that
which you get in the Policy Editor when you click on the Class of decode and you can
see all the decodes for that class and what actions are configured for those decodes.
In the lh window: In the rh window
Security Events
Event Class Enabled / Event Name /
Priority / Response(s) / Brief Descriptions
Actually, I want this so that I can provide Operations with a quick view of what each
decode has done. A view you just cant get easily within the console without opening
the policy editor. Not something I want an operator to do.
Something like "decode name / enabled / priority / Responses configured (and to which
OPSEC firewall)" in one long report.
This will be valuable in the upcoming RS 5.0 release I am sure, where we will Xpress
Updates adding new things to our policy files and change control becomes even harder
than it already is!!
