Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection
Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has zero-day attack protection."
"A unique feature with this product is that it will detect if the user is entering their password on a website, and then block it."
"It is one of the fastest malware prevention software with advanced upgrades to have 360-degree threat detection and system remediation."
"For us, the most valuable feature of Check Point Antivirus is the real-time detection scan that monitors files as they are accessed."
"Security has improved after we started using Check Point Harmony Endpoint, and we can manage all the systems and machines through a centralized portal called Check Point Infinity portal."
"Endpoint protection is valuable. Stability is good, and the product is well-designed for security needs."
"Checkpoint antivirus blade has improved our customers security postures by enhancing their malware detection, reduced risk of cyber attacks and also by stopping threats before they reach users by scanning files at the network gateway."
"Its most outstanding feature is the power to manage everything from a dashboard, a window that is in the cloud, which allows us to manage it from anywhere in the world through any browser, from anywhere."
"Cuckoo Sandbox is very stable and reliable."
"The scalability is an eight out of ten."
"The dynamic analysis feature in Cuckoo Sandbox is excellent compared to others."
"Cuckoo Sandbox is very stable and reliable."
 

Cons

"We need to ensure that the USB device will not be available until the scan has been completed, however, this may represent a malfunction when using other tools such as Rufus, as, by blocking access to USB drives, Harmony Endpoint will block access to these drives, thus Rufus will not be properly detecting USB drives and therefore it cannot operate properly."
"For the future, I would like to see maybe a content-filtering emulation feature in Harmony Endpoint."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's GUI is old. It needs to have a modern dashboard for logging activities. Compared to other products, the solution is slow in terms of deep scanning."
"We'd like them to include more learning-type notifications to users when detecting any eventuality or attack on their computers in order to educate them and teach them about this type of incident."
"We've noticed that the management console has some limitations as it's managed through the browser."
"We use a couple of Check Point products, like SmartEvent, and SandBlast Agent is not really integrated into that. We haven't gotten the reports working yet. We are working with the account team and trying. As I said, it's still relatively new in terms of what we're trying to achieve."
"They could improve across many areas, like bringing in more customization and reducing the cost further."
"The solution could be improved in the future with a way to provide online training to customers for free, as other providers do."
"It lacks correlation with other types of information, such as explaining why a particular file was modified or identifying the specific process responsible."
"Cuckoo Sandbox could improve its signature detection because it currently only shows simple file modifications and connections to different botnets."
"I want the command to be quicker."
"The only issue is with the installation, which requires some adjustments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"We pay roughly 80,000 Swedish krona per year. When it comes to the firewall, it's roughly 150,000 Swedish krona yearly. There's also maintenance, of course, which is roughly 10,000 krona per month."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"There are three different licensing models including basic, advanced, and complete, and it needs to be selected according to the endpoint."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"We have to pay five to ten thousand dollars for this solution."
