The record

Purpose: AWS Firewall Manager centrally configures and manages firewall rules across AWS accounts.
Protection types: It supports policies for AWS WAF, AWS Shield, VPC security groups, AWS Network Firewall, Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall, and third-party firewalls.
Automatic enforcement: Policies can be applied automatically to existing and newly created resources across an organization.
AWS Organizations: Firewall Manager integrates with AWS Organizations to scope protection policies to selected accounts or all organization accounts.
Third-party firewalls: It supports centralized deployment and monitoring of AWS Marketplace third-party firewalls, including Fortinet and Palo Alto policy options shown on the pricing page.
Compliance monitoring: A dashboard shows protected and non-compliant resources, and SNS notification streams can report configuration changes.
Security group auditing: It can detect overly permissive security group rules and notify administrators or take action through auto-remediation.
Rule hierarchy: Hierarchical policies let administrators delegate application-specific rules while centrally enforcing selected rules.
Additional charges: AWS Config rules and underlying services such as WAF, Network Firewall, DNS Firewall, and third-party firewalls may be billed separately at their current rates.
Shield Advanced pricing: Firewall Manager protection policies for Shield Advanced customers are included at no additional charge, while AWS Config charges may still apply.
Intended users: AWS says Firewall Manager is particularly useful for protecting an entire organization or frequently added resources.
Maker history: Amazon Web Services says it launched in 2006.
