Cost Analysis & Savings
When many of our customers reach out to us, rarely does every customer know all the associated costs with the solution, simply because there are many factors associated with building VPN tunnels and making them work with the cloud.
As part of our solution offering, we help customers pick the most optimal cost-effective options for their connectivity needs, and part of the engagement conduct Network Assessment, making sure that whatever existing infrastructure that you already invested is factored into the solution, helping customers save money.
AWS Cost Analysis for having site to site VPN or any type of VPN solution
As part of the solution, we help customers analyze licensing costs for Virtual Private Gateways or Transit Gateways in AWS helping customers make informative decisions about the cost factor prior to engaging with the solution.
We also help with AWS licensing cost analysis for ACM certificate management solutions for any EC instances that you may have that require careful tracking.
For every location we recommend customers to use multiple VPN tunnels for redundancy, each tunnel has a cost factor associated with it.
Licensing cost Analysis
When purchasing any type of equipment or software solutions relevant to firewalls, or VPN termination devices there are always licensing fees.
We can help you analyze these licensing fees and pick the right partner for your connectivity needs.
We are vendor agnostic
It doesn’t matter with which vendor you are dealing with, we are vendor agnostic.
- Some vendors may be better than others when it comes to individual solution needs.
- Our role is to recommend the best vendor to help you save money
- Regardless if you are looking for firewall in the cloud solution or Zero Trust type of solution, we can help you integrate it.
Our professional IT Consultants don’t speak the vendor language, but rather speak the protocol language.
Think of it this way every vendor who builds some type of solution is relying on some type of protocol to make the solution work.
Our company has specialized IT Network Consultants who are well versed with both on-premise and cloud types of architecture, regardless if it’s AWS, Azure, Google.
Why connect to AWS from on premise network ?
Problem
Many branch networks reside behind NAT and can't properly interconnect to AWS VPN virtual gateway.
When devices are behind NAT, depending on which vendor is trying to initiate VPN tunnel connection, the process of creating a VPN tunnel that is actually working can be very complex.
Some devices don’t have a way to properly work behind a NAT, while some do.
Some ISPs block IKE and 4500 and 500 and ESP traffic. Some don’t allow VPN pass through, some block other ports.
For Every Firewall VPN vendor there is a unique solution
Depending on which vendor customer uses to interact with AWS virtual private gateway the types of solutions that we offer may vary.
Some solutions may include DynamicDNS, others to use static ip, others to use some type of local id modification when traffic exiting firewall before it gets NATed.
Other solutions may include leveraging totally different vendors all together, such as for example Cradlepoint leveraging Software Defined Networking or even Zscaler to allow branch access across ZPA, ZIA.
No matter what the problem is, we have the solution.
Don’t hesitate to contact us to get your consultation today.
Solution
Use certificate based VPN tunnels
Certificates Vs Pre-Shared Keys is more secure.
The most typical solution to that problem is the deployment of certificates on the firewall that is creating IPSEC connection and managing these certificates throughout the entire certificate lifecycle management process.
That means renewing certificates on the IPSEC terminating devices.
Yet the reality is, certificate management is not exactly a fun process. AWS has it’s own ACM feature allowing certs to be renewed.
The process of integrating Private CA certs and managing it all is a time consuming process plus somewhat complex.
Our company can help customers make this process less complex.
We can help customers integrate and manage certificates in combination with monitoring AWS VPN tunnels, as well as configurating your existing vendor firewalls and VPN routers in such a way that your offices have resilient connectivity.
Typical Example of what our customers ask us to do
Route Based Tunnel VPN configuration between Sophos firewall and AWS cloud
We get some customers who reach out to us and ask us to configure VPN tunnel using tunnel routing method with the help of for example Sophos XG firewall in the branch office.
- Problems that we instantly see with customers is the fact that their firewall was installed and configured sitting behind private IP vs public IP.
- To solve this problem, we advise customer to get 2ndary public static IP for which WAN port can be configured or use more complex method of integration leveraging dynamicDNS for example with Certificates or other types of solutions.
- In some cases customers can’t pay for static IPs and require other methods of connectivity instead leveraging SSL based VPN or RED based VPN in either case solutions that we offer vary.
- Many customers have already existing infrastructure in AWS cloud and some also have their VMs in Vcenter on premise environment across different branches.
- Some customers have tons of IoT devices that they want to connect and don’t know how, while others simply want to have secure communication to their AWS cloud.
Whatever the case is for every problem there is a unique solution.
- In the case of this situation where customer’s Sophos XG firewall was sitting behind the firewall, the solution was to use certificate based authentication.
- Other option for this customer was to use another VPN router that is more capable of working behind NAT vs Sophos XG.
- Another option was to use DynamicDNS.
Additional Services for Identity Validation and Network Monitoring
In addition to offering AWS VPN solutions our company also offers multi factor level of validation across either certificates or other validation characteristics helping your networks stay secure.
We also can help companies visualize their entire environment in tools like New Relic,DataDog, LogicMonitor, SumoLogic, AppDynamics, Zenoss or Splunk, Solar Winds.
