FireMon Security Manager is the foundational platform required by the Policy Planner add-on module. Risk Analyzer requires Security Manager for policy visibility, network topology, and analytics.
What Policy Planner does[5]
Policy Planner manages the full change lifecycle, analyzing proposed rules in real time, checking them against compliance requirements, and deploying them across on-premises and cloud environments. Policy Planner performs pre-deployment compliance checks against requirements such as PCI DSS, NERC-CIP, NIST, and DORA.

Policy Planner handles modifications to network objects, service objects, and group objects across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
