Summary

In this chapter, you learned how to create security profiles and how to build a set of profiles that influence how your firewall processes threats. You learned how to create a default security profile group so that your security rule base starts off with a strong baseline of protection, as well as how to create solid security rules. You can now make complex NAT policies that cater to the needs of your inbound and outbound connections.

In the next chapter, we will see how to take even more control of your sessions by leveraging policy-based routing to segregate business-critical sessions from the general internet, limit bandwidth-hogging applications with quality of service, and look inside encrypted sessions with SSL decryption.
