Check Point SandBlast Network Reviews

Pro-active prevention techniques mean that files sent to my endpoint are automatically cleansed and filtered for malicious content without a delay. The Check Point Threat Cloud auto updates with new malware found from users worldwide meaning my protection is constantly up to date. Independent tests have verified that Check Point Threat Prevention has the highest catch rate in the industry.  Working for a Check Point partner we utilise Check Point's endpoint solution in our day to day work and the most valuable benefit is knowing I am being protected from email, endpoint and removable media attacks and when attacks occur I am likely to weather the storm better than other users.

When files are sent they are automatically sandboxed and cleansed in real time meaning we don't need to wait for our filters to do their work before we see the output. I know my laptop is safe.

The day to day files like doc, xls, pdf, zip and rar can be scanned and cleaned by threat extraction in real time but there are still some file types which require further inspection. With the machine learning capabilities of sandblast there should be scope for more coverage, butI would like to feel certain 'no' file type is left uncovered. Any vendor that can find a way to do this is on to a winner!

We don't lose any data now that we are using SandBlast.

Check Point SandBlast is best in terms of the extraction function. Customers can get a clean firewall with extraction after I've cleaned and scanned it from Check Point. It's easy for users, too.

We started using SandBlast maybe two year ago.

SandBlast is stable.

We have 10 customer companies. They are mid-sized enterprises with between 100 and 200 users.

Check Point support is good.

Setting up SandBlast isn't complex. The total deployment time is maybe around three months. 

Sometimes we use outside support.

I rate Check Point SandBlast 10 out of 10. For those thinking about implementing SandBlast, I recommend assessing their organization and business requirements. Also, I would consider the costs. It will run you about $5,000 a year.
