ACL Aggregation
Ingest access control lists from Cisco, Juniper, Palo Alto, AWS Security Groups, Azure NSGs, and 58 more device types — unified in minutes.
AI-Powered Policy Intelligence
Unify Every
Firewall Rule
Across Your Network
AccessPolicyIQ aggregates access control lists from every device, normalizes firewall rules, detects redundancies and conflicts, then recommends least-privilege policies — all through a single API-driven platform.
The Platform
Network policy management has never been this precise
Modern enterprise networks run on hundreds of firewalls, switches, and cloud security groups — each with its own ruleset, syntax, and enforcement model. AccessPolicyIQ ingests, normalizes, and reconciles all of them into a single coherent policy graph.
Our AI engine continuously monitors for drift, conflicts, and over-permissive rules, and surfaces actionable least-privilege recommendations your team can deploy in one click — or automatically via our REST API.

Core Features
Everything your security team needs
A complete toolkit for access policy governance — from ingestion to deployment and continuous compliance monitoring.
Firewall Rule Normalization
Translate heterogeneous vendor syntaxes into a canonical policy model. Compare, diff, and reason across devices with a single data schema.
AI Policy Reconciliation
Our ML engine cross-references intended policy with deployed rules, proposes reconciliation plans, and scores compliance posture in real time.
Redundant Rule Detection
Automatically identify shadowed, duplicate, and never-matched rules that bloat your rulebase and obscure your true attack surface.
Conflict Analysis
Surface policy contradictions — rules that both permit and deny the same traffic path — with full impact analysis and remediation guidance.
API-Driven Deployment
Push approved rule changes to any supported device through a single REST API call. Full rollback support and immutable audit trails included.
Deep Capabilities
From raw rules to intelligent policy governance
-
Network Segment Discovery
Automatically enumerate and map network segments, VLANs, and micro-segmentation zones. Build a living topology that feeds into every policy analysis.
-
Least-Privilege Recommendations
Using traffic flow data and workload identity, AccessPolicyIQ computes the minimum necessary permissions for each resource and proposes targeted rule rewrites.
-
Continuous Drift Monitoring
Set policy baselines and receive instant alerts when any device deviates — whether by unauthorized change, firmware upgrade, or misconfiguration.
-
Immutable Audit Trail
Every analysis run, recommendation, approval, and deployment is cryptographically signed and stored. Meet SOC 2, PCI DSS, and NIST compliance requirements with ease.
Workflow
Four steps to a clean policy estate
AccessPolicyIQ fits into your existing automation pipelines and CI/CD workflows without requiring a network change freeze.
Connect & Ingest
Plug in via API, NETCONF, or file upload. AccessPolicyIQ pulls the current running config from every device in your inventory.
Normalize & Analyze
Rules are parsed into our universal policy schema. The AI engine flags redundancies, conflicts, and over-permissive entries.
Recommend & Approve
Review AI-generated least-privilege recommendations in the dashboard or via API. One-click approval with full diff preview.
Deploy & Monitor
Approved changes are pushed atomically with automatic rollback on failure. Drift monitoring begins immediately post-deployment.
Product Tiers

Why AccessPolicyIQ
Measurable security gains, not just visibility
-
Reduce attack surface in days, not quarters
Most teams see a 30–60% reduction in over-permissive rules within the first two analysis cycles, without any manual rule-by-rule review.
-
Slash audit preparation time by 80%
Continuous compliance tracking with cryptographically signed audit logs means your evidence package is always ready — not assembled the week before the audit.
-
Deploy rule changes at machine speed
Eliminate change-window bottlenecks. API-driven deployment with atomic rollback means approved changes go live in seconds, not days.

Customer Stories
Trusted by security and network teams
From enterprise banks to global healthcare — real teams, real results.
★★★★★
“We had 11,000 firewall rules spread across 4 vendors. AccessPolicyIQ normalized everything in under an hour and flagged 2,100 redundant rules we didn’t even know existed. The AI conflict analysis alone paid for the platform.”
★★★★★
“The API-driven deployment workflow replaced our entire manual change management process. We went from a 3-day change window to pushing approved rule updates in seconds, with full rollback safety.”
★★★★★
“Our last SOC 2 audit took six weeks of manual evidence collection. With AccessPolicyIQ’s continuous audit trail, the same process took two days. The least-privilege recommendations put us well ahead of the auditor’s checklist.”
Case Study
How a global retailer eliminated 6,400 shadow rules in 72 hours
A Fortune 500 retailer with 280 branch locations had accumulated 18,000 firewall rules over 12 years — many duplicated, contradictory, or simply never used. Their security team spent 40% of their time on rule reviews with no clear end in sight.
After deploying AccessPolicyIQ, the AI Analyst engine identified 6,400 removable rules, 93 active policy conflicts, and generated a full least-privilege migration plan within 72 hours. All 280 sites were updated via API over a single weekend change window.

FAQ
Common questions, straight answers
Still have questions? Our team is happy to walk you through a proof-of-concept on your actual network environment.
AccessPolicyIQ natively supports Cisco ASA, IOS, and Firepower; Juniper SRX and EX; Palo Alto Networks NGFW; Fortinet FortiGate; Check Point; AWS Security Groups and NACLs; Azure NSGs; GCP Firewall Rules; and 52 additional device types. Custom parsers can be added via our SDK.
Never without explicit approval. All AI recommendations go through a human (or automated pipeline) approval gate before any change is pushed. Every deployment is atomic with automatic rollback on device-side rejection. You retain full control at every stage.
The engine builds a normalized policy graph from your ingested rules, then applies a combination of symbolic analysis (for exact conflict detection) and ML classification (for semantic grouping and intent inference). It cross-references your traffic flow telemetry to distinguish theoretically redundant rules from actually unused ones.
Enterprise tier customers can opt for a fully on-premises deployment where all configuration data and analysis remain within your data center. SaaS deployments encrypt data at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3), with tenant isolation enforced at the storage layer.
Out-of-the-box policy templates and audit evidence packages are available for PCI DSS v4, SOC 2 Type II, NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and CIS Benchmark controls. Custom compliance profiles can be authored using our policy assertion language.
