Check Point Harmony Browse Reviews

Check Point Harmony Browse is a browser isolation solution that aims to protect organizations against web-borne threats. It uses a remote browser to securely render web pages and deliver them to the end user, isolating the user's device from any potential threats.

The use case of Check Point Harmony Browse is to protect organizations against web-borne threats such as malware, phishing, and other types of cyber attacks. 

It can be especially useful for organizations that have a high level of web-based activities such as online banking, and e-commerce, or those working with sensitive data.

One way it can improve an organization is by providing a secure way of accessing web-based resources, as it isolates the user's device from potential threats. This can help to reduce the risk of data breaches or other security incidents caused by web-borne threats.

Another way it can improve an organization is by providing a secure way of accessing web-based resources for employees, contractors, and partners who need to access web-based resources while working remotely. This can increase productivity and allow employees to be more flexible in their work arrangements. 

The most valuable aspects of the solution include: 

Browser isolation. This feature allows organizations to use a remote browser to securely render web pages and deliver them to the end user, isolating the user's device from any potential threats.

Multi-factor authentication. This feature allows organizations to use a combination of authentication methods such as certificates, tokens, biometric authentication, and user credentials to secure access to web-based resources.

Encryption. This feature provides end-to-end encryption for the communication between the user's device and the remote browser, which helps to protect against eavesdropping and other forms of man-in-the-middle attacks. 

Areas for improvement include:

Greater automation to reduce the need for manual configuration and management.

Improved scalability by allowing the solution to handle larger numbers of users and devices without a significant impact on performance.

Advanced reporting and analytics capabilities in order to have more detailed visibility into security incidents and events and allow for better decision-making.

An enhanced user experience by allowing users to have a seamless browsing experience with minimal latency and interruption. 

I've used the solution for one year.

Currently, with the mobility that we have within different teams, and the different internal organizations that have been deployed to work from home, we worry about opening ourselves up to security breaches when users work from home or in places outside the organization.

We have been adopting Harmony services for much of the team and departments that do telework.

When users are working off-site, we've found it is important to have reporting that is very important in order to validate, control, and determine if the users are working in a corresponding way. We want to be able to give them protection as long as it is established that they have the power or the capacity to work outside the institution. This solution has allowed us to give users secure access to pages, addresses, and resources that can now be accessed inside or outside our institution while always maintaining security guidelines.

Its content filtering is great. It protects the information of our institution and the personal data of the users, meaning that this solution always maintains the privacy of the data at all times. It's not invasive or created in such a way that it would bother the end users when using it. The data can be filtered or exposed in the Harmony browser and we can use it with total flexibility. The security and the filtering that they have It is really efficient.

I would like the solution to be implemented more easily for teams and directly on Android or iOS devices. That way, we could provide teams with devices like tablets.  

They have become a technological ally for people who have greater mobility. As long as they have easier portability, we'd be happier. We need a solution with applications directly installed on cell phones in a more native way that allows for allowing web browsing, thus helping, and always contributing to device security.

Check Point Harmony Browse is the one-stop shop for ensuring end-to-end security while browsing online from anywhere, anytime. It helps in providing strict security to browsing access and content for the workforce sitting remotely and on the premises. Half of our workforce is working through Hybrid mode, and before the introduction of Check Point Browse, it became extremely difficult for us to monitor and ensure secure browsing and working in online mode across different platforms.

Due to Check Point Browse security solutions, we now feel more confident in working online, and there is no fear about malware attacks and phishing attempts on our IT system and mobile devices precisely. All our data security is intact with Check Point Browse.

Check Point Harmony Browse became everyone's favorite in no time. It helped my IT team to develop capabilities and ensure easy deployment and integration of Check Point Browse with other third-party vendors and client applications to ensure that there is no lapse in security checks and all the working data is secure from any malware attacks. 

It boosted our compliance and audit reporting, and now we receive fewer observations from the audit and compliance desk as they can see that there is an advanced IT security mechanism in place with equal capability to monitor 24/7 for the remote and on-premise workforce. Certainly, it leads to the attraction of more new clients on board and greater client satisfaction in the end.

It offers safe access to the internet anywhere, anytime due to advanced next-gen zero-day phishing and zero-day malware features, ensuring malware-free downloading of any kind of content from any internet website.

This has created a technological revolution in 100% web security due to advanced and proactive threat detection from anywhere on the internet and warns the user of its potential to harm IT systems.

Its potential features of Threat Detection and Threat Emulation have helped businesses to browse securely hassle-free without any tension, and also it helps the users to ensure no data breach happened in an insecure internet environment. Check Point Browse is an expert in diffusing internet threats within a fraction of a second.

Highly integrated and user-friendly secure browsing solution, accepted globally by all 

Check Point Browse is doing a fantastic job and doing great justice to the IT world. 

More focus and emphasis is required on customization and real-time notification and alert system. The system is there, however, it needs more strengthening and robustness to cater to the business requirements in the quickest and most accurate manner.

Also, a strong push is required on research and technological intervention to understand the emerging market demand and customize our present and future upcoming solutions so that there is no hassle in deployment and integration of the software/platform across any channel and can be done smoothly.

I've used the solution for almost three to six months now.

The solution offers high intensity and stability.

This is a fantastic scalable solution.

The support is amazing and commendable.

Positive

We used Kaspersky Internet Security solutions earlier and switched to Check Point as it's now a well-known and recognized name in the market and offers great offerings end-to-end at a reasonable cost. There is no cost burden on small, medium, and marginalized organizations.

The solution is easy and straightforward.

We implemented the setup with the help of a vendor.

The ROI is amongst the best.

I recommend all to start using Check Point Harmony Browse as it's the best available security software in the market currently. It will never disappoint you on anything. They are the leading market player now and will capture half of the market quickly due to their agility and high business ethical attitude. Their solutions are cost-effective and save our pockets from high burnout. 

Licensing is easy and trouble-free. 

We evaluated software like Quick Heal, AVG Antivirus, and other solutions to meet our requirements.

Check Point Harmony Browse will secure your system 100% in no time, and there are 24/7/365 days of security on systems, servers, and devices in on-premise and remote mode. 

The monitoring process through the desktop would be an effortless activity, and all monitoring insights will be presented through a dashboard in real-time so that no lapse occurs at all.

I have installed Check Point to secure my personal computer.

Check Point Harmony Browse has a feature that allows users to check the extensions installed in their browser. This feature is valuable because hackers may install malicious extensions on a target computer without the user's knowledge. When browsing, users are often less aware of the extensions installed in their browsers, making it easier for malicious extensions to go unnoticed. By providing visibility into installed extensions, Check Point Harmony Browse enhances security by allowing users to identify and remove potentially harmful extensions.

The UI will be great. A good UI that displays threats and recent findings and allows for reporting events, even if the threat is blocked, will enhance understanding for network administrators. They can pinpoint the originating computer and track the event to its end. Additionally, if it's a Check Point link, it can be detected.

One of the challenges addressed by Check Point Harmony Browse is the threat posed by employees, partners, or other individuals who inadvertently click on or are targeted by malicious links or malware. Check Point Harmony Browse efficiently detects such links, blocks them, and alerts administrators or users who clicked on them, providing timely protection against potential threats

I have been using Check Point Harmony Browse for five years.

I rate the solution’s stability a ten out of ten.

The solution is scalable. 15 users are using this solution.

The initial setup is easy and takes a few minutes to complete. It's just an extension. I rate the initial setup a ten out of ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy.

The solution has a reasonable pricing.

Check Point Harmony Browse's threat prevention is quite effective. Many times, I test it myself by setting up a free website and sending it to my computer to see if it detects threats when I click on it. It consistently detects threats efficiently, meeting expectations.

Harmony Browse integrates seamlessly with your existing security infrastructure. It leverages Check Point's extensive experience and products in cybersecurity. Notably, it operates without requiring additional software on the user's device for malware and phishing detection, functioning like an antivirus solution. Our experience with Harmony Browse has met and even exceeded our expectations.

I recommend that even if the product is good, opting for the Business-only option is essential. The CEO wants to install it on the company's computers and deploy it. Engaging with employees who will experience the installation on their computers is crucial. They need to understand the importance of cybersecurity and avoid phishing attacks by not clicking on suspicious links. This is vital because attackers often target individuals rather than the computer itself.

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

This solution is essential to protect browsing against zero-day malware and zero-day phishing in a simple and easy-to-manage way. 

With this solution, users can browse without worries, focusing on their work and not on security. In addition, this solution is available for all common systems (Windows, Mac, and Chrome OS), so you can avoid big scares with it.

This solution is easily managed from a console in the cloud and only requires deploying an extension in browsers, which facilitates its administration.

With this solution, users' browsing is automatically protected against zero-day phishing and zero-day malware, all with almost no configuration required. In addition, you can monitor that corporate passwords are not reused, which further reduces the chances of falling into phishing.

All these protections are maintained wherever the user is, which makes it perfect for teleworking.

In my particular case, unfortunately, only a few of us in the organization have this solution installed. The rest of the users continue with these threats.

This solution has multiple protections, with Zero-phishing being the most different from the rest of the solutions on the market since it is capable of detecting and blocking all new phishing attacks quickly and easily.

The second most differentiating factor that offers effective protection is Threat Extraction. It allows us to safely download any document in a few seconds, eliminating their active content and thus avoiding the risk of malware. If the original document is necessary, it can be downloaded after the file is analyzed by its advanced sandbox system.

This solution has multiple protections that are generally very simple to configure and work quickly with little intrusiveness for the user. In the case of document download zero-day threat protection, Threat Extraction, this is not exactly the case. 

It works very well, however, it is very annoying for users, since it does not always work in the same way and sometimes it makes it show you the same window twice for each file to indicate where you want to save it. The ease of handling should be improved, as it is currently intrusive and some users don't like it.

I've used the solution for about seven years.

It is very stable and only has a few times a year where the console cannot be accessed, although the solution still works due to updates.

It is a very scalable solution since the client is very light and the management is done from a console in the cloud.

The customer service is very good, however, the support is somewhat slow and heavy.

Positive

I have tried several solutions and this seems to me the most complete and safest.

The initial configuration is done in about ten minutes and then all you have to do is load the extension in the browsers.

We implemented the solution internally.

By being able to avoid a first virus or phishing, ROI is achieved.

It is an economic solution and very focused on the protection of navigation. It is also easy to configure, deploy, and manage.

We also looked at Crowdstrike, Symantec, Bitdefender, Netscope, and AVG.

The solution helps us to detect download files, phishing websites, and access to non-compliant websites.

The essential feature of Harmony Browse is SEO phishing. Also, it has improved security.

The URL filtering database and website restriction should be improved.

I have been using Harmony Browse as a distributor.

The product is stable.

We cater the solution to enterprise businesses.

The initial setup and its configuration are easy.

The tool’s deployment on a computer takes ten minutes.

The product has a reasonable pricing.

Harmony Browse is a part of the Check Point Harmony Endpoint security suite. It protects the endpoints.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Teleworking and the mobility of users led us to understand that we needed to improve the security of the user and of the team. We also implemented this tool through a super light agent.   

The downloads were completely safe from the browsers. Its great virtue is its security from the start of the download itself in the browser.

We also established policies in a granular way. We create user profiles for different types of blocking or web access, to guarantee that we can protect users and managers.

Check Point Harmony Browse came to innovate security from the browser. I will comment on the best virtues of the tool:

1. Its Nano Agent, which integrates with the browser, is incredibly invisible to the user and the computer since it does not require much performance.

2. Its protection against modern threats such as credential theft is incredible. With this feature, you can browse with confidence knowing that your accounts are safe.

3. Its administration portal through Check Point Infinity is incredible, really intuitive, and easy to implement for users.

There are few improvements. No manufacturer is perfect. It seems to us that the performance in some opportunities of Check Point Infinity and the administration web portal is slow. They can improve the performance, and it would be even more amazing.

The documentation of these tools is scarce. They could share more of the new tools at a public level.

The costs are competitive. However, they are only accessible through a partner. It would be better if they were public to make references against other products and make decisions.

This Check Point tool, used in recent years, is modern and is great for identity security.

We did not know a tool with these qualities.

It is important to find a Check Point partner, validate costs, request documentation, and take a proof of concept. That would be my recommendation before purchasing the product.

Our partner told us about this tool. We immediately validated the market, verified costs, and made the decision. It really wasn't difficult due to everything that Check Point represents.

It is a very good tool, however, not necessary for everyone, since some companies already have other tools that provide security at this point. However, I recommend trying it.

We find ourselves with the need to ensure the navigation of our users, providing safe navigation solutions protecting equipment and searches, mainly since, in many cases, users are people with little knowledge of security and are entering any type of web page where we can find malicious environments which can compromise the infrastructure and associated services.

We have a need to secure equipment and be able to have our users protected when they browse anywhere, especially when we have many of our users working from home.

In our search for solutions to protect users inside or outside the organization, and to provide security when browsing wherever they go, we came across this product. We wanted the protection that we previously had only in the perimeter area. At this point, we saw this solution provided great value to our organization as the security is integrated with the services of the Check Point cloud. This integration is so powerful that each request leads us to conduct a deep inspection of each one of the queries, being one of the best in the market and providing protection at all times. 

Among its most important features is the integration of its analytics. It allows us to be faster and predicts events that violate the security of the equipment. We can avoid zero-day events and intrusions. We can avoid malware and ransomware infections which are the most common. It gives us the possibility of protecting each of the activities. 

One of the new features I would like to see is the possibility that these tools can be brought to mobile devices such as tablets and cell phones in iOS or Android applications. 

I would like is to be able to take this solution and be able to take existing designs and integrate the product into all services since it's one of the most important solutions. 

We must be more proactive and integrate existing solutions into a single integrated package so that customers feel more secure. 

I've used the solution for one year.
