A method for automatically managing a platform firewall using a network function (NF) repository function (NRF) or service communication proxy (SCP) includes receiving message relating to registering, updating, or deregistering an NF profile in an NF profiles database separate from a platform firewall. The method further includes determining that the registering, updating, or deregistering of the NF profile requires a change to a firewall rules configuration of the platform firewall. The method further includes, in response to determining that the registering, updating, or deregistering of the NF profile requires a change to the firewall rules configuration of the platform firewall, automatically updating, by the NRF or SCP, the firewall rules configuration of the platform firewall.
