Network Firewall
Using the Network Firewall subject area, you can create reports and dashboards to analyze and visualize Network Firewall resources and their associated firewall policies across tenancies and compartments.
With these reports, you can track the configuration, lifecycle state, associations, and inventory details of Network Firewall resources to gain visibility into network security coverage and policy usage.
