Firewall Management in St Davids

Configuring and maintaining firewalls for St Davids organisations. Firewall rulesets decay in a predictable way — rules get added for a project, a supplier or an urgent request, and almost none are ever removed, so after a few years nobody can explain half of what is permitted.

Why this comes up

The problem

The firewall was configured years ago and rules have accumulated since. Nobody knows what several of them are for, and removing anything feels risky.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Rule review with each rule traced to a purpose and an owner
  • Unused and shadowed rules identified from actual traffic logs
  • Removal staged carefully, since deleting a rule nobody understands can break things
  • Inbound exposure minimised, because that is where opportunistic attacks arrive
  • Firmware kept current, as firewall vulnerabilities are actively exploited
  • Change process defined, so the ruleset does not silently decay again

Firewall Management in St Davids — common questions

How do we remove rules safely?
By using traffic logs to identify rules nothing has matched in months, then disabling rather than deleting and watching for complaints. Deleting a rule nobody can explain is how a critical integration breaks on a Friday afternoon.
Does firewall firmware really need updating?
Yes — firewall and VPN appliance vulnerabilities are among the most actively exploited, precisely because they sit exposed to the internet. An unpatched firewall is a target rather than a defence, and this is a well-documented route into organisations.
Is a firewall still enough?
It was never sufficient alone and is less so now. With cloud services and remote work, much of your traffic never passes through it. It remains a necessary control for what it does cover, alongside identity and endpoint protection.
What causes rulesets to decay?
No change process and no review. Rules get added under time pressure with no record of why, and nobody owns removal. A simple requirement to record purpose and owner at the point of adding prevents most of the mess.
Do you work with businesses across Pembrokeshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Wales, including St Davids and the surrounding Pembrokeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of St Davids businesses do you usually work with?
Simple booking and payment systems for very small hospitality and tourism operators on the Pembrokeshire coast. Beyond that we work across Tourism & Heritage, Hospitality, Agriculture, Marine and Retail.
Do you cover the areas around St Davids?
Yes — we work throughout Wales, including Swansea, Cardiff. St Davids is an urban area of roughly 1,600+, and we take on work across the wider Pembrokeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
