What Juniper Security Director is

Juniper Security Director centralizes network security policy management for Juniper SRX deployments through a web-based interface. Administrators can configure application security, firewall, security intelligence, VPN, IPS, and NAT policies in one place. It manages physical, virtual, and containerized firewalls across public and private clouds; Juniper says it can manage tens of thousands of sites at once. Security Director is available for on-premises infrastructure, while Security Director Cloud is a SaaS option. Juniper describes bidirectional synchronization among the two offerings and individual firewalls as supporting organizations that are expanding from on-premises infrastructure to cloud. Security Director Insights correlates threat events across email, endpoint, server, cloud workloads, and network layers, and supports one-click mitigation of active threats across Juniper SRX Series Firewalls. Firewall Policy Analysis can report shadow or redundant rules and recommend fixes. Licensing is subscription-based, with listed on-premises terms of one, three, or five years and cloud terms of one, three, five, or seven years for specified SKU families. Pricing is available by request. Juniper Networks was founded in 1996 and is headquartered in Sunnyvale, California.
