We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We have had a number of real events where developers accidentally made commits of API keys, and we were able to detect and begin response actions in minutes. We had the API key revoked in less than five minutes in such events.""The implementation of this tool for security management and control is very simple.""Compared to what we used before, it's helping us to be more efficient in managing our traffic.""Its fastest and most outstanding characteristic is ensuring a development line that will not lead to applying applications or code development.""Check Point CloudGuard Spectral helps to improve the code security of our company, generating rapid and complete assessments to be able to make decisions for improvements.""You can maintain a legal framework structure at all times.""Having a cloud detection response helps to very quickly identify security threats in our environment.""We have a strong sense of security assurance when utilizing CloudGuard, as it consistently delivers outstanding protection capabilities."

"The API is its most valuable feature. On the API side, relative to the rest of the market, Check Point is decades ahead of its competitors.""The setup is very easy. I haven't faced any complexity with the setup of the solution.""The dashboard provides information to investigate more about malicious activity and blocked emails.""The solution has a very effective anti-phishing algorithm that detects a significantly higher number of phishing emails compared to the default Microsoft solution.""It is very intuitive. It is a point and click type of deal.""It is fast and has a very simple, easy integration.""The automated rule cleanups and automated policy installs have improved my customers' organizations.""The feature I find to be most valuable is very much the zero-touch provisioning. I was able to be up, operational, and 100 percent functional in less than a half an hour."

Cons
"There needs to be better security around API integration.""It is generally difficult to find documentation about the product, and there is relatively little to find.""They could include web functionalities such as sandboxing.""I am satisfied with the performance and results enhanced by this product since we deployed it.""This is a highly technical solution for users who do not have security experience. It requires specialized knowledge of configurations to use it correctly.""The enhancements are needed in the logging system and log management processes.""I would like this solution to be extended to cellular devices or tablets.""We need to have many of the baselines or development guides providing less complex writing or development."

More Check Point CloudGuard Code Security Cons →

"Some files are not scanned thoroughly due to occasional network failures.""They could improve Check Point support response times. Sometimes it takes days to resolve or even days to get a first response.""They should consider a module that allows the customizing of reports so we can generate executive information for the client (to explain in simple language the general security situation in the SaaS environment).""Check Point's technical support is very much of a low level, especially with respect to other vendors and OEMs.""The NAVEX metrics that I have been using on the CloudGuard dashboard cannot be exported. If they were to add report exporting capabilities on each of metric objects on the dashboard, that would be awesome.""I need to go to Check Point's admin portal if I want to see the license list and the details of the users of the tool, making it an area of concern where some ease of process should be provided from an improvement perspective.""Cloud Guard would be a complete solution if Check Point added a comprehensive data loss solution that included capabilities such as bulk data transfer detection.""We still get some false positives. There are times when legitimate stuff gets flagged and it could be that somebody is expecting a very important email but they don't end up getting it. On the flip side, when we alert Check Point about stuff like this, it is corrected, so they are improving. That's a plus."

    Overview

    CloudGuard Code Security’s automated tools integrate with developers’ tools to detect code vulnerabilities and to identify secrets and misconfigurations in the code before deployment, preventing unauthorized use to nefarious ends. With CloudGuard Code Security, organizations can prevent exposing API keys, tokens and credentials, in addition to remediating security misconfigurations. With a super-fast platform, CloudGuard Code Security ensures security without compromising productivity.

    Check Point Harmony Email and Office is a cloud-based software offering complete protection to stop malware attacks through emails. The software is designed to provide protection for organizations using Office 365, G Suite, Google Workspace, and all other collaboration and file-sharing apps. Access permissions can be granted and custom policies can be defined for any user of choice.

    Check Point Harmony Email and Office identifies and blocks advanced malware, phishing, and ransomware attacks in real time before they reach the user’s inbox. In turn, this also helps protect sensitive business data from breaches. Harmony Email and Office was the first solution to implement machine learning, API, and AI for email security, and will ultimately prevent any attempts at account takeover via agentless multi-factor authentication.

    What is Complete Protection?

    Check Point Harmony Email and Office offers a superior catch rate for collaboration apps and cloud email with their API-based solution that detects attacks that other solutions miss, including account takeover, supply chain attacks, ransomware, and BEC. The complete protection offers:

    • Malware Protection - Recognized by NSS Labs as “most effective in breach prevention,” the solution leverages technologies to bring clean files to users within 1.5 seconds. In addition, enterprises can be safer as the solution prevents malicious messages and files from reaching the user’s inbox.
    • Data Leakage Protection - Any confidential or sensitive information will be marked and have a classified suffix added to the end of the message or file to help keep those materials safe. Those files are encrypted, and the user will be alerted to any attempted breach of those messages.
    • Phishing Protection - Before advanced phishing attacks reach the end user, Harmony Email and Office detects and blocks them, including outbound, inbound, and internal communications.
    • Account Takeover Protection - After a user connects their cloud app, the solution captures the user's history and creates a profile and a custom threat profile. In the event of a suspected account takeover, threat intelligence is leveraged through millions of Check Point-secured gateways and endpoints and is blocked.

    Reviews from Real Users
