“Thirty years ago, Check Point Software created the firewall. Today, we revolutionize it with Quantum Force Security Gateway, a next-generation solution that provides robust AI-driven protection, seamless integration of unified security, and policy management in both cloud and on-premises settings,” says Nataly Kremer, Chief Product Officer at Check Point Software Technologies. “Users can browse securely, protected against the most sophisticated malware and supply chain threats, while benefiting from enhanced network performance, optimized operations, and automated threat response and remediation,” she concludes.
Check Point Quantum Force helps companies tackle multiple cybersecurity challenges
Digital transformation and cloud migration are happening at an unprecedented pace. As hybrid work becomes a common practice in most companies, there is a growing need for secure and fast networks that facilitate remote work. At the same time, companies face multiple cybersecurity challenges that can hinder effective protection of their resources and operational efficiency. From understanding new technology features, managing multiple vendors, or ensuring the security of increasingly encrypted traffic, it is clear that the challenges to maintain security are complex.
Check Point Quantum Force Security Gateway firewalls are a cost-effective solution that enhances network performance, simplifies technology infrastructure, and reduces energy, infrastructure, and operational expenses. Its key features include:
Maximum security performance offers 2x higher threat prevention performance up to 63.5 Gbps. Its compact 2RU/1RU form factor and 1/10/25/40/100 Gbps interfaces contribute to its efficiency. It has a unique modular and flexible architecture that adapts to customers’ dynamic network requirements while delivering 2x more energy efficiency. This improves operational efficiency and reduces infrastructure costs.
AI-based threat prevention: with a leading industry blocking rate against advanced threats and AI-driven attacks, Quantum Force provides automated response to cyberattacks, real-time global intelligence, and over 50 AI engines, ensuring proactive defense against evolving cyber threats.
Consolidated security and policy management: data centers can streamline security operations with consolidated management and policies in on-prem, cloud, and FWaaS (Firewall-as-a-Service) environments.
“Hybrid work and multi-cloud adoption have expanded the attack surface and made corporate cybersecurity more complex. Given the shortage of cybersecurity talent, companies should consider implementing AI-enhanced solutions to empower analysis and automation and protect against the threat landscape,” says Pete Finalle, Security Research manager at IDC. “Check Point Software’s new series Quantum Force Security Gateway of ten AI-powered security gateways delivered from the cloud provides up to 1 Tbps of threat prevention performance, automated blocking of sophisticated threats, while unifying management, streamlining operations, reducing response time, and enhancing cybersecurity effectiveness.”
