Security Services Domain Model / Worked Examples / Firewall & Network Security

Worked Example: Firewall & Network Security

This example turns a detailed firewall architecture into a navigable Security Services Domain Model. It connects regulatory, privacy, resilience and trust drivers to logging and monitoring, encrypted-traffic inspection, segmentation and edge access; follows the design through logical inspection and decision workflows; and traces those workflows into gateway, management and event systems delivered by Check Point and Cisco Meraki products.
