Check Point Harmony Mobile Reviews

One reason we use it is that we didn't really have any control on the mobile side. We do have Google MDM, but we didn't have a solution like the one Check Point offers to protect mobile devices. Even with Google MDM, there is not much we can do without having something that can enforce security on the endpoint. So there was a gap and that security gap was our main use case.

The mobile space was pretty new to us. We had no control over it. Given the COVID situation and worked-from-home, we immediately embarked on this project to roll out this initiative. It was part of our strategic decision because when the government implemented work-from-home, only essential staff were supposed to come to work. We had to report every stage at which we reduced the number of staff on premises, because we're state-owned and our CEO reports to the minister. The solution improved things significantly in that context. We were able to give a proper accounting of our security assets and not have that gap where mobile devices are concerned. And we're able to offer a lot more security.

A lot of the users are using banking apps and didn't really have any assurance that they were protected. Also, with the pandemic there were a lot more cyber security attacks. We were sending out updates on what was happening, as part of our security awareness. It helped build some confidence within the staff in terms of what we were doing for our security campaign. Overall, it helped us account for all assets and protect them properly.

We use the solution in the hospitality and aviation domains.

Harmony Mobile is a unified security solution for user devices and internet connections. It protects devices from sophisticated attacks, including malware, and implements Zero Trust Access for comprehensive security.

The goal is to implement Harmony Mobile in the entire fleet of devices of the Government of the Junta de Andalucia. We are talking about a total of about 60,000 terminals. A pilot of the solution has started and it will be implemented in all the terminals that are renewed in the corporate network. These devices correspond to different user profiles and include different browsing patterns and profiles and threat exposure from terminals for M2M communication to advanced user terminals with large traffic quotas.

In the first place, the Harmony Mobile solution (or also known as Sandblast Mobile) has allowed us to minimize and speed up the software deployment tasks, which is the plan for 60,000 potential terminals and it is already a very important first advantage. The main advantage of the solution is the implementation of complete security policies for the terminals that address how more apps are installed on corporate devices. It is essential to be absolutely certain that these apps and the navigation of these terminals do not cause any risk to the corporate network. Harmony Mobile guarantees this protection.

After the pandemic, most organizations started working remotely and accessed corporate data from their mobile devices. This increased the risk of breaches from mobile attack surfaces. This product covers all mobile security subjects such as application security, network security, file security, and OS/Device protection. 

You can cover all attack vectors with Harmony Mobile. It is a good add on top of MDM solutions. Harmony Movie can detect jailbreaking and rooting techniques. Also, it can protect you from the latest phishing and zero-day phishing attacks.

If organizations distribute mobile devices to their employees and care about user privacy and experience, they should definitely consider how they can secure the devices. Harmony Mobile is the answer to all the things I have mentioned so far. 

It helps employees become aware of mobile security risks with detailed real-time notifications. It has given detailed visibility for threats and created awareness for improvements. The dashboard is very easy to use and deployment is quite easy for mobile devices.

All staff were told we had to use it on work devices - yet were allowed to use it on our personal devices also if we were interested in doing so. I accepted the offer and since doing so I have been able to depend on it to prevent me from accessing malicious Wi-Fi spots when someone pretending to be the carrier's Wi-Fi on the underground nearly had me connecting. 

It has warned me about and blocked malicious apps, which was more useful when I was on an Android device, however, it still flagged Apple apps for me also - which was a surprise to me as I had assumed these were vetted and controlled by the Apple App Store. 

Ultimately I feel better having this. I know I can be more laid back about connecting and using apps. The odd time it flags something, it isn't obtrusive - it just lets me know why. 

It has meant that the entire fleet of mobile phones is secure from malicious network connections and that users can freely download apps (within reason) without there being any cause for concern with data loss, malware, theft, and so forth. 

We're able to be an organization that allows users to make the most of their phones, and therefore get more done since everyone can be flexible knowing they're protected. 

Management can see all devices on one panel and easily highlight any devices under threat.

With this, the company has been able to give many users access to the infrastructure of the company from their mobile phones. Several types of applications are used that must connect to the company network which accesses sensitive information. This has helped a lot to improve efficiency in day-to-day operations and be able to reach more customers. In addition, it has provided us with better administration of all devices and has them organized by security policies depending on the area where each employee works.

This tool has helped us at various points in our organization. For example, we can have better control over each device that accesses the infrastructure network. We can also reach and process orders, and solutions faster, or be able to consult data in real-time from mobile phones. We can work from anywhere in the country. 

With Harmony Mobile, we have been able to provide additional security to our network. 

In addition, it provides a detailed summary of each of the operations from where they access what they access and this has helped us a lot in the audit that they do so we can provide accurate and concise information.

We use Check Point Harmony Mobile to provide secure access for our remote workers, including employees working from home and those traveling. It allows them to connect to our internal network and applications securely, regardless of their location. We also use it for our branch offices to connect back to our central network.

We have seen a significant reduction in security incidents, particularly phishing attacks and malware infections. Check Point Harmony Mobile's advanced threat prevention capabilities have been very effective in blocking these threats. We also appreciate the consistent security policies we can now enforce, no matter where our users are connecting from. Overall, we are very satisfied with Check Point Harmony Mobile. It has significantly improved our security posture and simplified our remote access management.

The most valuable features of the solution are threat emulation, threat extraction, URL detection, antimalware, antivirus, and IPS. Check Point Harmony Mobile is a good option for users who want only incoming and outgoing traffic security for their Android and iOS devices.

Check Point Harmony Mobile lacks MDM capabilities, which are present in other MDM products, like IBM Security MaaS360, AirWatch, and Google Workspace.
