Every decision on every rule. Captured, attributable, auditable.
Your operators and your external auditors in the same conversation, attached to the rule. No account for guests. And your configurations never leave your data centre.
Who approved rule 138, and on what basis?
When the auditor asks, you go looking. The justification is rarely where the rule is. It lives in an inbox, a ticket, a chat thread, sometimes in the memory of someone who has left. You rebuild the story under time pressure, every time.
The review lives next to the rule
Ask, decide, and keep the proof in one place. Each rule under review carries its Risk Blade score, so the debate starts from the risk.
The conversation is attached to the rule
Operators ask, security officers decide. Every message is timestamped and attributable. The rule under review carries its Risk Blade score, so the debate starts from the risk, not from scratch.
The external reviewer joins by a secure link
No account, no seat, no install. Open one secure link, read the context, post your reply. The trace stays written, in your system.
The rule is shown as it stood at review time
If a newer revision exists, a warning chip says so. The auditor debates the exact object, not a version that moved since the review opened.
You see what actually needs you
The inbox and its KPI tile surface what is waiting on a decision: unread, waiting on you, recently updated. No more scanning a mailbox to find the one thread that blocks a change window.
Bring the auditor in without giving them a seat
Stop chasing approvals across email and chat. The external reviewer opens one secure link, reads the rule in context, and posts a reply. No account to create. No software to install. Two clicks to invite, one action to revoke.
The data stays in your data centre
Once Ruleblade is deployed in your data centre, collaborative review runs without any invitee data passing through the vendor's infrastructure. The invitation goes out through your own mail relay. The reviewer reaches your appliance on a hostname you control. The invitee's data, their email, messages, and access log, stays in your appliance. The vendor has no access to it and keeps no copy.
Temporary access, audit trail you keep
The reviewer's link expires after 14 days by default. The audit trail stays in your appliance, under your retention policy. You decide how long it is kept and how it is erased.
Minimal scope
The reviewer sees only the rule under discussion. Not the rest of the policy, not other perimeters.
Information notice built in
The invitation email carries the GDPR information notice. Every invitation and every access is recorded in your appliance.
The piece your auditor opens first
Preparing a NIS2 or DORA audit, or an ISO 27001 review? The change justification is attached to the rule, timestamped and attributable. You open one record instead of reconstructing six.
Two ways to start. Neither asks for your config.
Firewall change governance: the evidence pack your auditor opens first
A 10-page PDF. What an auditor asks of a rule change, the six places the justification gets lost today, and the eight governance proofs to have ready before your next risk committee.
No firewall data requested. We use your work email to send the pack. See our Privacy Policy.
See Threads on a Ruleblade environment
A 30-minute tour. Open a thread on a Risk Blade-scored review, invite an external auditor by magic-link, and walk the audit trail in context. No connection to your infrastructure.
We use your details to arrange the demo. See our Privacy Policy.
