Firewall policy management for telecom operators.
Unify firewall policy across a sprawling, multi-vendor network — from signalling and OAM to internet-facing edges — and prove segmentation to the regulator without a per-console scramble.
Why telecom firewall policy management is hard to get right.
Telecom networks run more firewalls, across more vendors, changing more often than almost any other industry. Policy is spread across Palo Alto, Fortinet, and Cisco estates plus cloud security groups, and no single console can answer whether subscriber, core, and management planes are truly segmented. Change volume is high and reporting deadlines are fixed.
Dozens of firewalls across multiple vendors with no single, normalized view of policy.
Segmentation between signalling, OAM, and internet-facing zones is asserted but hard to prove.
Change volume outpaces manual review, so over-permission and drift accumulate quietly.
Regulatory reporting to the CITC and NCA pulls engineers off the network for weeks.
Where OpClerk fits, point by point.
A direct, auditable line from each requirement to the capability that satisfies and evidences it.
Subscriber and network topology data is among the most sensitive an operator holds. OpClerk deploys inside the operator's own perimeter, so policy data is analyzed in-country and never leaves the network boundary.
Common questions.
Yes. OpClerk normalizes policy from large multi-vendor estates into one inventory and analyzes it centrally, so scale is a data problem it is built for rather than a per-device chore.
No. OpClerk reads policy from your existing vendor tooling and adds analysis, governance, and evidence on top; it does not replace how changes are pushed to devices.
