Check Point Infinity Reviews

We use the solution for testing and conducting. For instance, we test this product using open-source samples containing different ransomware tools and another element.

The detection rate is good. It also has personal management that provides all the details on one dashboard. Depending upon the requirements, you can customize the dashboard. The visibility part is also very good. It can customised. The reaction rate is good.

There is an issue with high agent size, which impacts performance. The EDR part should provide more features.

I have been using Check Point Infinity for 6 months.

The solution’s scalability is good but complex to maintain. They need to provide technical training to the partners. Expanding the team to get expertise and hands-on solutions will be easy.

Support is not that much good. Response time is very high. Some issues take a few days to resolve.

The initial setup is neither easy nor complex. Any technical user can quickly deploy it. You need two to three resources to monitor and support the solution for a thousand assets. We use email deployment and data deployment. You don't use manual deployment. It is challenging for multiple users.

Check Point is a universal solution with multiple features that customers expect in one product to meet all the requirements.

The product has moderate pricing depending on the devices. The OEM's services are quite high.

We are a cybersecurity company providing solutions for our customers. We tested the Check Point solution, not just as a solution provider but also to assess cybersecurity for Check Point. We tested various products and have found that the Check Point endpoint protection offers multiple capabilities. It covers postal management, DDR capabilities, and many other features, such as cloud assessment and sandboxing in the cloud.

They should have a dedicated team or take services from third-party sources to maintain the solution. They can have this solution for endpoint protection and mobile protection.

We can customize the dashboard to meet our needs. We can tailor the dashboard to display the information we need depending on our requirements.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

It is a good tool. If we plan to change the password, we don't have to change the MX Points or SPF settings, as it works with Microsoft 365. It helps us prevent losing emails.

Check Point Infinity is not compatible with Windows 8.

We have been using Check Point Infinity for two months. We did a POC for it.

It is a stable product. 

It is a scalable product.

The technical support services are good. We reach them regarding technical errors. They reply with the solutions in a few hours.

Positive

The initial setup process is complex.

The product has good pricing considering the features and a global approach. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten.

I rate Check Point Infinity a nine out of ten.

At the end of 2020, the company was growing its staff. In addition, the pandemic was beginning, and as a result of these two factors, the company needed to protect the organization. It was there that the Check Point Infinity tool was used. 

It is characterized as a great tool against the latest generation of cyber attacks all these attacks are found on mobile devices, endpoints, etc. Always in the security part, companies must be aware of technologies since it is an essential part of organizations, and Check Point Infinity is an excellent tool for these functions.

The Check Point Infinity tool came in to reinforce security in the organization since a basic security had been implemented that put our data at risk. Using these new technologies, it has also focused on zero-trust and is able to generate complexity and security gaps in the platform of the organization so we can avoid future attacks and errors and be able to provide a quick solution. 

Infinity contains all the modern Check Point components like DLP, IPS, VPN, etc. We currently use R80.10 and it helped us a lot with security and implementations.

It has come to reinforce the security architecture of the organization since it covers all the necessary pieces of security, those characteristics that it has that different cover devices regardless of the brand, also to help us maintain full control of our employees' devices and thus be able to monitor and ensure more and more security breaches. Infinity helped us a lot in real-time threat prevention, and with continuous updates, it is one of the most important points of all Check Point solutions.

One of the main improvements that can be made is the latency in the portal. It is one of the most common errors of the Check Point tools, another of the improvements is that the unlimited licenses are based on the number of users. This confuses larger organizations, where not all users need all services. 

Finally, they must improve the technical support they provide to users since we have opened several cases and they take time to attend to them or contact us, and in certain cases, they do not provide a quick solution. They take a long time to solve the error problem in question, which is worrying since, due to this inefficiency, they could attack the organization since there may be a gap in the infrastructure of the organization.

The tool was implemented four years ago..

In recent years, the stabilized one has done very well. The only thing is the latency to the portal, however, in general, it has behaved very well.

Regarding the scalability of the tool, it is very scalable depending on your implementation.

The experience with support has not been very good since we have had problems with support. It took a long time to answer or solve a problem.

Positive

We did not have any professional security tools.

The implementation was very simple and fast. All you have to do is meet the primary requirements.

The implementation was done in conjunction with the supplier and an internal engineer. The experience was very good; he knew how to do his job.

The director of the company will be continuity since if it were not safe there would have been losses.

Check Point maintains competitive prices in the market. It must be taken into account that for the security of an organization is very important to invest in.

Check Point Infinity was one of the first options we had in mind due to its great reach in the security market.

The only thing would be to improve the latency in the graphical interface and technical support.

The tool's most valuable feature for threat prevention is the encryption alarm. 
I find the centralized management console, including the log analyzer and reports in Check Point Infinity, extremely beneficial for enhancing security and operations efficiency in our enterprise. I would rate it a perfect ten out of ten, as it effectively helps us analyze logs,  and detect potential attacks. 

The tool's technical support lags. 

I have been using the product for six to seven months. 

I rate the solution's stability a nine out of ten. 

I rate the tool's scalability an eight point five out of ten. 

We used Trend Mico before Check Point Infinity.We currently have approximately 500 endpoints deployed. So far, the system is working seamlessly, and we haven't encountered any security issues. I'm confident in the product's security features. We are currently the documentation, and the support portal has been reliable, providing us with ample resources to troubleshoot any issues.

When it comes to price, the paramount consideration is the strength of the security. If the security measures provided by the product, such as Check Point Infinity, are robust and meet our requirements, price becomes a secondary concern.

For those considering Check Point Infinity, my advice is to gain hands-on experience and acquire a foundational understanding of the product before diving into the implementation process. I rate it a nine out of ten. 

We were looking for a solution that would allow us to establish a configuration with the different security devices remotely while centralizing management and including other products available at the security level. 

We looked into different options and brands that allowed us to establish, achieve and fulfill this need. This was one of the solutions that met all of these aforementioned characteristics, thus giving us 360º protection and accommodation in terms of managing security services. 

This solution gave us the freedom to be an institution with its own security team, which has allowed us to establish ourselves. It is one of the best brands and products in terms of centralization. It allows us to establish all security products or security software under a single pane with a single view of a centralized dashboard. We are managing everything from there and have been able to handle threat prevention. It has allowed us, in a complete way, to handle expanded organizational scope. 

The portal gives us many advantages. 

It has great internal analytics, which contains artificial intelligence. It has the ability to be managed centrally and acquire and consume computing power from the cloud. This means that we will make a payment for the use of the services and a payment for the licensing. Additionally, computing power doesn't all come in a single license. We can take a single product and enable and facilitate it as necessary, making all of these capabilities and features available as needed. 

We need improvement around the Smart-1 cloud solution. It is included in the Infinity service, and it needs to be able to be restarted only from the background, with the brand's specialists - not done in an autonomous way. Developing this aspect and making it available to everyone consuming the services through the platform would help us manage many of the incidents due to cosmetic errors that can happen on the platform. 

I've used the solution for one year.

Today we have the need to protect various infrastructures we have. We have infrastructure on-premise and in the cloud, and we have a variety of branches. All of the infrastructures has demanded greater security from us. We needed a new and evolved way of managing equipment and the security of our infrastructure. As a result of all these concerns, we have been adopting innovative security technologies, and this is where we have added additional value to the protection that we want to give to each of the places where we have hosted data and information. We have been adopting the themes of Infinity Cloud to have total protection.

Infinity has come to give us total protection. It has come to cover branches, devices, infrastructure, different clouds, and various types of sites where we host data, and we need to share it between the different regions we have a presence in. It has given us the protection that we did not have before.

The segmentation and management came in decentralized, which means that this has given us protection while providing the ability to centralize a single portal for our security teams so that each one of them can administer and manage everything. Infinity is of great value as it can centralize all those dashboards. Before we had them separate.

Everyone who uses Check Point products has been realizing that it has been innovating in immense ways. Before we had the perimeter network administration teams in one place, with the management of mobile devices or web browsing handled separately. Today, we have them in a centralized place and are managing (in different tabs) the security of each of its devices, branches, clouds, etc. It is a more efficient way to take advantage of all the computing power and intelligence behind it. And it has additional AI.

In the future, I would like to see new developments that allow us to centralize the cloud. Infinity Cloud is one of the most powerful clouds in security where a number of sites or technological capabilities have been established to protect our networks, our equipment, and our infrastructure, however, in the future what we could have is a comprehensive and novel way for new or additional features to protect services such as blockchain or web services3.

I've used the solution for one year.

As part of a large organization, this product gained the visibility of our security team thanks to its reputation of having the most advanced technology against the latest cyber threats. 

It protects everything, from cloud and company networks to endpoints and mobile devices, by adopting Check Point Infinity security architecture as a strategy to neutralize fifth-generation threats that spread fast and at a large scale through different vectors. 

We also saved money in our security implementation measures with this solution.

Check Point Infinity's security framework requires all users to be authorized and authenticated regardless they're from within or outside the organization. In order to maintain or gain more access to applications and data, the users have to be continuously validated by posture and security checkpoints as if there was no traditional network edge. Whether the network's in the cloud, local, both, or hybrid, and regardless of the location of the worker, the solution is comprehensive to the digital transformation taking place. It opens lots of backdoors and exposes gaps consequence of non-stop data sharing.

You can tell this product's standards have gone through heavy validation and testing; it's always verifying access from all resources at all times. If a breach happens, it minimizes its impact, which is a determining factor of its efficiency (worst-case scenario behavior), and incorporates the data to strategize on the best possible responses with the most accurate neutralizing actions. It provides fantastic visibility of security incidents through deconstructing and dissecting the threat's infection protocol.

The management console has given us some trouble, and the documentation is a little bit rigid in its solution paths. We could use more audiovisual material with more examples of setups and configurations to minimize the need to discover the information we need in the extensive documents we have available. 

The support team is great. However, we don't want to be constantly on the phone with a technician for Q&A or even to open tickets to design our protocols the way the company requests them.

We use Check Point Infinity to protect our organization against the latest generation cyber-attacks, characterized by large-scale spread and fast movement across multiple attack vectors.

These sophisticated attacks are on mobile devices, endpoints, cloud, and various enterprise networks. They easily bypass the conventional, static detection-based systems used by organizations today.

The legacy perimeter-focused security approaches have become ineffective. The outdated assumption that everything inside the security perimeter can be trusted leaves organizations exposed for vulnerability and attack.

To protect the organization, we need to move up to the latest generation of cybersecurity tools. These combine real-time threat prevention, shared intelligence, and the most advanced zero-trust security across network, cloud, endpoint, and mobile devices.

Rebuilding security infrastructure around the Zero Trust approach, using disparate technologies might lead to complexities and inherent security gaps. To avoid errors and provide robust security, Check Point offers more practical and holistic approaches to implement Zero Trust. It is based on a single consolidated cybersecurity architecture, Check Point Infinity.

Check Point provides different solutions to protect organizations at each level. They have products that can work in a silo or can be integrated with other security solutions to enhance security by mitigating risk and providing a dashboard for monitoring.  

Generated logs can be sent to a SIEM solution, where a use case or action can be defined against raised alerts. Automated policies/processes can be created accordingly.

For example, if we need to block communication from a suspicious IP for which an alert has been raised, and send it to ServiceNow. We can create a playbook on the ServiceNow platform for raisings an alert, which will instruct the NGFW firewall to block the connection.

The Check Point Infinity security architecture enables organizations to fully implement all of the Zero Trust Principles.

Zero Trust Security, Check Point Infinity is an architecture provided by Check Point that includes a solution for protecting organizations at different levels. 

Zero Trust Networks: The Check Point Security Gateway enables micro-segmentation across the organization's network. Integration with Identity awareness and Application Control enables policy enforcement at a granular level.

Zero Trust Workloads: Protect workloads hosted in private and public clouds, enforce compliance, detect and remediate misconfiguration.

Zero Trust People: Identity awareness enables granting access to data for authorized users with SSO and MFA.

Zero Trust Devices: Sandblast Agent Endpoint and Check Point Sandblast Mobile protect employees' mobile devices and workstations from advanced attacks, Zero-day malware, malicious app installation, and more. Network-based threat prevention protects devices from threats that are coming from the network and vice versa.

Zero Trust Data: Protect data by performing full hard disk encryption on endpoint and external media encryption on all removable storage media. Data shared to external partners over the Internet is encrypted by site-to-site VPN and client-to-site VPN.

Visibility and Analytics: The Check Point attack dashboard allows for immediate response to security incidents and provides real-time forensics for investigating events.

Automation and Orchestration: Security architecture integration with organization border IT environment enhances speed and agility, incident response, policy accuracy, and task delegation.

The licensing model for Check Point Infinity is not clear. As infinity licenses are based on the number of users, it confuses larger organizations, where not every user needs every service. 

For example:

For an organization size of more than 100,000 users, where only a few users need to have access to SandBlast Mobile for protecting their BYOD devices against threats, and there are a few users that need Capsule to access corporate data, and in addition, if the organization needs to protect all of the user's email accounts using Check Point Email Security, then it creates issues in terms of the license count. It is confusing when it comes to figuring out how to fulfill the requirements.

Check Point solutions are stable.

It's a framework, so it is scalable.

The technical support is excellent.

We are using this solution to provide having security at each level of the environment.

Different solutions or products from Check Point are involved for creating complete this security framework.

We deployed with an in-house team with OEM support.

Check Point should provide an enterprise-wide license where the organization should be provided free hand of using any license or services for an agreed period of time (EULA).

We have worked with different products from Check Point and other security solutions.

This is a security architecture. Organizations can use different Check Point solutions for protecting different environments, such as the network, email, endpoints, and more.
