My main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is for security purposes, which is used to stop threats, to stop malware inside, and to stop ransomware.

A specific situation where Check Point Harmony Endpoint helped block a threat is when a user connects their device to the network with a malfunction; immediately, the Check Point device gives me an update that this particular device has a threat, is connected to the internal network, and I receive a pop-up on my phone and email to block the device.

There is nothing else to add about my main use case; this is the main thing that I am using to stop all the threats that are coming inside.

There are many specific features in Check Point Harmony Endpoint that I find most useful, especially when it comes to device connection processes; it shows each device in a segregated method, unlike many SMB devices that categorize everything into the same column. Check Point Harmony Endpoint has a special feature utilizing AI to segregate devices, allowing me to see how many laptops, desktops, mobile devices, tabs, and watches are connected, making it easy to identify and block any problematic devices.

This level of detail is crucial for my organization because it allows immediate alerts if my device has any glitches while connected to the internal network. If there's an issue, the Check Point device will alert me about a mobile phone with a specific MAC and IP address, preventing it from affecting our entire network infrastructure and allowing me to block the device seamlessly.

Additionally, Check Point Harmony Endpoint features an easy-to-use VPN, which is very beneficial because users can install it themselves without needing IT admin support, making the installation process straightforward.

This ease of use is important for my organization as it leads to quicker setup times. Previously, I had to remote into user devices to install VPNs, which wasted IT productivity; now, users can download and install the VPN themselves with just the IP address.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted my organization by saving me at least 50% of my time compared to previous SMB solutions because it effectively segregates devices and provides a clear overview.

One standout positive impact from using Check Point Harmony Endpoint is its easy pop-up alert system when any infected device connects, allowing me as an IT admin to block it quickly.

The main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint in our organization is to use it with the Check Point NGX Firewall for a unified threat prevention strategy, with approximately around 2000 users and multiple endpoints across multiple branches, ensuring safety from advanced protection against malware, phishing, ransomware, and zero-day attacks. Our environment includes both Windows and macOS, with central management done via cloud hosted Infinity Portal to protect our endpoints.

Since implementing Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I have noticed a positive impact on our organization as we receive multiple detections of attack activities in the log section, showing how the solution protects our network. This allows users to stay focused on their work without disruption from attacks, ultimately saving time and enhancing productivity.

My main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is to secure laptops and desktops across our organization, including remote endpoints, providing layered defense against malware, zero-day attacks, phishing, and data loss, making it a critical part of our endpoint security stack.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization by significantly improving our security posture, especially for remote and hybrid users, with approximately 400 out of our 500 members working from home, leading to almost 90% of security being handled by this product. It helps protect endpoints from advanced threats through behavioral analysis, real-time threat protection, and simplified endpoint management through the cloud-based console. The solution has also improved compliance and risk management to ensure endpoints meet security standards even outside the corporate network.

My main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is that we use it as an EDR solution for all our endpoints.

My team uses Check Point Harmony Endpoint primarily as an EDR solution focused on threat detection and incident response.

Check Point provides zero-day protection, which helps us significantly with our security regarding our main use case.

The AI-powered threat prevention in Check Point Harmony Endpoint helps us to detect and prevent sophisticated attacks, and its scalability means it can be deployed across various devices and environments, helping us daily.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization by providing shorter incidents and better compliance.

Our incident response has increased by 5 to 10%, which showcases specifics on how much the incident duration has decreased and how compliance has improved.

The main use of this product is endpoint security, it is very useful when you are trying to centralize endpoint security management and you want an easy and fast setup, I have used this product in POCs and different size deployments with different kinds of clients. Harmony offers several layers of protection and it fits well with all the Check Point "ecosystem", (It is especially useful when you are correlating security data because it can "talk" with Check Point's XDR Solution in order to get more insights).

There are several benefits that you can get with this solution:

1) You get centralized management of endpoints in your organization and you can be very granular in order to create endpoint security policies for different user groups. This improves overall security and visibility for IT departments.

2) Visibility also offers improvement with purchases and making decisions.

3) Information is easily managed and protected (which is particularly useful in lost or stolen endpoints).

4) It can be used with an XDR system (which is very useful with SOCs).

My main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is as an EDR solution for our organization level for anti-ransomware protection and behavior guard in the threat emulation, which are features we use in our day-to-day life.

Basically, we use Check Point Harmony Endpoint for threat prevention and EDR features which help us monitor our endpoints and servers, and we've achieved compliance and cleared our ISO audit through this EDR solution. Particularly, we've utilized features that allow us to detect alerts from these systems and help in mitigating them.

In my experience with Check Point Harmony Endpoint, the best features it offers are forensics and incident analysis, which have helped us, and among them, anti-phishing is one of the most used features. Additionally, we utilize features such as threat intel published via the EDR solution that help categorize or detect incidents.

The forensics and incident analysis features of Check Point Harmony Endpoint have helped us significantly while performing analysis over the EDR, allowing us to dig down into incidents, including the process involved and the files associated. I would rate this capability as four out of five.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint as a nine due to its improved user interface, forensics and incident response capabilities, behavioral analysis, zero-day threat protection, detailed logging, audit trails, and encryption enforcement.
