S-byte continues its series of successful primary state expertise projects in technical protection of information (TPI) for network equipment from the US company Cisco Systems. This time, Cisco Secure Firewall CSF220 firewalls joined the list of security tools approved for use in Ukraine.
Which Cisco Secure Firewall CSF220 versions passed the expertise
We completed the primary state TPI expertise for CSF220 series firewalls with two operating systems:
- with the ASA operating system version 9.x;
- with the Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) operating system version 10.x.
After the procedures, these models officially entered the state list of “TPI tools that have an expert opinion on compliance with technical information protection requirements”.
What it gives public and corporate customers
Official confirmation of compliance with Ukrainian security standards allows government bodies, the financial sector and critical infrastructure to integrate Cisco Secure Firewall CSF220 into their protection lawfully. For state systems this is essential, because you cannot use security tools without a valid TPI expert opinion.
However, a TPI opinion does not replace regular updates. You still need to update firewall software after every vendor security advisory.
