Evolved cloud security with active monitoring but needs interface consistency

The user interface needs work. Sometimes, it is a transition from the old tool to the new CNAPP Two that I currently have, and remnants of the old environment can still be detected. I require consistency in the user interface to ensure everything is streamlined into the same look and feel. More work is needed in fine-tuning the threat data towards your CSPM and activity logs, aligning them with business intelligence, which requires a cohesive console interface. My assessment of CloudGuard CDRs in intrusion detection and threat hunting capabilities is that it still needs some work. All the threat data that comes in, you need to fine tune it a bit.

Operates in-line in the network, blocking malicious and unwanted traffic

A standout feature of TippingPoint is its strong integration with various solutions. It stands out as one of the leading network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in the current market and is known for its seamless integration with other solutions. For instance, when it identifies a potential threat within the traffic stream, it meticulously analyzes the data. Even in multilayer security scenarios, Tipping Point's network IPS can serve as a bypass for the basic firewall. If a threat is identified by Tipping Point, it promptly shares this information with the other systems. This ensures that they're updated and can employ the necessary solutions from their signature databases. The entire network gets safeguarded automatically. This integration extends to components like security and FX. This linkage streamlines our operations, offering a consolidated point of control for managing threats effectively.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The product enables us to check the information that goes out of the company."

"Checkpoint posture management gives you visibility across your entire cloud infrastructure, so it helps you with management, maintenance, and compliance. With visibility across all these cloud platforms, you can protect against compromised credentials or identity theft."

"The system has deployed security tools to enhance effective investigations in the entire company networking system."

"The feature that I find most valuable is the blocking feature."

"It offers a range of features tailored to address the unique security challenges."

"I can take proactive actions based on an alert without having to interact with the platform directly."

"The identification of misconfigurations, maintenance of compliance in a centralized way, and visibility across all the multi-cloud tenants are the key functionalities."

"We have more visibility than ever before, appreciating the valuable and proactive insight that we receive from the platform."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP pros

"You don't need any hardware because the solution is on the cloud. I like that Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is easy to install and manage."

"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is very stable. In addition, the provider gives notice of any changes well in advance, which is important for planning updates."

"For intrusion detection and mitigation, it has helped us in sort of known signatures and all sorts of things. So, we're very happy with the engine. That's the work."

"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."

"What I like about Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is that it works okay. I don't have time to mess with the tool most of the time because I have way too many tasks to do, but Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System tells you when there's a problem, then it blocks the problem, so that's what I like most about it."

"It integrates easily."

"The most valuable feature is the central command center, where we can control and manage the solution."

Cons

"The security of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management could improve. There are always new security issues coming out."

"Improvements can be made to the user interface."

"When rules change, it messes up the remediation. They haven't found a fix for that yet. The remediation rule goes into limbo. It's an architectural design flaw within their end compliance engine—a serious bug."

"Making basic rules is easy, but it's complex if you want to do something a little more nuanced. I've been unable to make some rules that I wanted. I couldn't evaluate some values or parameters of the components I look for. I haven't always been able to assess them."

"Automation and advanced threat prevention have room for improvement."

"I would appreciate a way to receive periodic updates, like through email. I am the kind of person who likes to receive data passively."

"In Dome9, there should be a policy validation option where we can validate the policy before we push it into production."

"Timely updates and upgrades to meet modern technological changes could help improve performance and limit the chances of downtime."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP cons

"I find Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a bit clunky, and updating it can be a pain in the neck because you need to do it from time to time, so this is what needs to be improved in it. I would also rather have an all-in-one system that does intrusion detection, protection, web filtering, and also serves as a firewall, and my company is moving to an all-in-one solution, but I'm unsure of how soon that's going to be. Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System also doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the required traffic within my company, so it's going to be replaced."

"We need more integration. It would be good if Azure IPS and TippingPoint IPS and other products from Trend Micro like their DBI and IWSVA could talk between each other."

"The solution should provide the possibility to mix traffic and the traffic's geographical source to have improved functionality."

"I would like to see this solution more lightweight and easier to install."

"The firewall rules are limited."

"It integrates well but it takes time."

"Price is a significant factor that requires attention to enhance the popularity of Tipping Point among mid-sized data centres. Currently, Tipping Point is primarily adopted by sizable data centres, and smaller defenders might find it financially challenging to acquire. Recognizing this, efforts are underway to potentially introduce diverse models with varying capacities. This adjustment aims to ensure that a broader range of data sizes can benefit from the solution. Also, the continuous evolution of Tipping Point is evident in its features, particularly the personalized dashboard and related aspects."

"There is room for improvement in customer service and support."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Everything in this field is very expensive."

"We have the enterprise-level license and we renew it annually because it is worth the cost."

"It is a very straightforward licensing model that is based on the number of assets you are discovering and managing with the solution."

"The licensing and costs are straightforward, as they have a baseline of 100 workloads (number of instances) within one license with no additional nor hidden charges. If you want to have 200 workloads under Dome9, then you need to take out two licenses for that. Also, it does not have any impact on cloud billing, as data is shared using the API call. This is well within the limit of free API calls provided by the cloud provider."

"In the beginning, the price of Dome9 was cheap, whereas now it is not."

"I suggest that you pay attention to the product pricing because while there are no tricks, and the licensing model is transparent, the final numbers may surprise you."

"The pricing is extremely competitive."

"The license for CloudGuard Posture Management is about $80 a year, and it's based on your cloud footprint, not the number of users. So you could have a million users, and it doesn't matter."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP pricing and cost advice

"We pay for Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System yearly. The cost increases if you add more users."

"TTPS is reasonably priced."

"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is an expensive product."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."

"TippingPoint is not as expensive as Palo Alto but it's not as cheap as Fortigate."

"It's an expensive product."

"It is an expensive solution and I would rate it three out of ten."

"The price is in a market-suitable price range. So it's not expensive, but it's also not cheap either. The price is a strong point."
