Azure Firewall Manager
Azure Firewall Manager is a centralized security management service that enables organizations to define, deploy, and manage network security policies across multiple Azure Firewall instances spanning various regions and subscriptions. By providing a unified control plane, it simplifies the administration of security perimeters in cloud environments, ensuring consistent policy enforcement and streamlined operations.

Think of it as a virtual network expert, on duty 24/7 — but its reach now extends beyond DDI: LiveAssurance protects core network services like BlueCat Integrity (including Address Manager and BDDS components), as well as firewalls and load balancers from a wide range of vendors. LiveAssurance works in three stages.
