CyberCNS can evaluate the security policy of your WatchGuard Firewall and flag any potential security gaps. You can initiate a Firewall Scan from the Integrations menu.

Navigate to Integrations

In the CyberCNS portal, navigate to Global Settings( ) > Integrations and choose WatchGuard from the integrations listed.
Next, is to add credentials for your WatchGuard firewall

Enter Credentials

Credentials should have ssh access to the firewall from the probe machine.

3. Enter Name: Choose a name of your choice for the credentials to be added.

4. Enter Hostname/IP Address: Enter a Hostname/IP address for the credentials to be added.

5. Enter Port Number: Enter the Port Number for the credentials to be added.

6. Enter Username: Enter the username used to log in to WatchGuard Firewall. It is recommended that you define a special username to be used exclusively for these scans so that they can be identified in the firewall’s logs.

7. Enter Password: Enter the password containing only alphanumeric characters to log in to WatchGuard Firewall.

8. Select an associated Company: Select the existing company from the drop-down in order to add the firewall as an asset of that company.

9. Select Probe/Agent: Select a Probe/Agent of the selected company to be used for the scan. If no agent is installed for the company, an external scan agent can be used to initiate firewall scans from the CyberCNS Server (e.g abc.mycybercns.com).

10. Once all the data has been entered, click Save.

Note that multiple credentials can be added by using the '+' sign. Each set of credentials can be attached to a company and then to an agent under that company.

After the credentials have been successfully added to the company, the Firewalls tab will be added to the Main Menu if this is the first firewall getting added into CyberCNS.

11. In the Firewalls section, click Firewall Scan to initiate a scan for all the integrated firewalls.

12. When the scan is complete, details of the Access Rules, Users, Licenses, Storage, Systeminfo and Interfaces will be populated for WatchGuard Firewall.
