Helps prevent advanced threats and reduce incident response times through unified security policies
The best feature Check Point Infinity offers for me is threat prevention, which is effective at blocking malware, ransomware, and phishing, as well as preventing zero-day attacks before they reach users or systems. For our team, the threat prevention in Check Point Infinity works by layering multiple defenses that stop attacks before they reach users or systems, and the most effective feature for us is the specific SandBlast Zero-Day Prevention, which uses advanced sandboxing and threat emulation to detonate suspicious files in a safe environment. Check Point Infinity has impacted my organization positively, as I have seen a reduction in security incidents and response times, with threats that used to slip through different point solutions now being blocked automatically thanks to the unified prevention layers.

Provides reliable applications security but needs better integration options
There are areas for improvements regarding false positives. Integration capabilities are lacking, as options for integrations with other tools such as SNOW, Jira, or other integration tools are not sufficient in Rapid7 InsightAppSec. The user interface sometimes has glitches, which may prevent appropriate results during navigation, and even when we get appropriate results, it can be impossible to export them to CSV records or download files. Regarding scalability, Rapid7 InsightAppSec is not a scalable solution for our industry due to limited integration capabilities. Rapid7 relies on another tool called InsightConnect, which requires additional investment, detracting from scalability. Another area that needs improvement is the integration of AI capabilities into the platform. Both Rapid7 InsightAppSec and InsightVM need to advance in that area. In terms of behavioral and pattern recognition, identifying complex attacks such as SQL, blind SQL, JSON, and LDAP injections often results in 94% false positives. This necessitates improvement in their behavioral-based analytics feature.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Check Point Infinity security architecture enables organizations to fully implement all of the Zero Trust Principles."
"Check Point Infinity has positively impacted my organization by streamlining security prevention and strengthening our overall posture."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point Infinity is the ease of use and navigation."
"It protects everything, from cloud and company networks to endpoints and mobile devices, by adopting Check Point Infinity security architecture as a strategy to neutralize fifth-generation threats that spread fast and at a large scale through different vectors."
"Check Point Infinity has impacted my organization positively because it is easier to control and change VPNs and other features."
"It has come to reinforce the security architecture of the organization since it covers all the necessary pieces of security."
"Infinity is a technical console where we have to log in, and we can navigate to all the products very easily because it is written in a normal installation. People who know about the product can click and take care of their activity."
"The all-in-one management feature of Check Point Infinity saves time because I can manage everything and deploy everything from one place."
"Customers use the product for scanning purposes and do not want to be restricted with respect to the number of scans they perform."
"We have seen measurable decrease in the mean time to respond to threats by 20 percent."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec helps us in both regulatory compliance and in strengthening our security posture."
"The solution is stable."
"Relatively speaking, InsightAppSec is good compared to Insight VM."
"If a company needs an effective product for web scanning, I can recommend this product."
"It is a very robust solution."
"I would rate the technical support from Rapid7 a ten, indicating high-quality support."
 

Cons

"Something that should be better in Check Point Infinity is the customization, though I don't have any specific suggestions at this time."
"The improvements needed for Check Point Infinity include that the documentation is not intuitive, and we needed more pictures or steps to make it more intuitive for all people when deploying it for the first time."
"The tool's technical support lags."
"The customer support is average because I need to create different things in the portal to create a ticket."
"The endpoint solutions offered by Check Point are not prominent enough in the market due to Check Point's poor marketing efforts."
"The licensing model for Check Point Infinity is not clear."
"Check Point Infinity price could improve."
"Technical support is something that needs improvement."
"Customers sometimes experience issues with performance."
"I would like more details of what the product can do."
"The product’s pricing could be flexible."
"We get a lot of false positives during the tests."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec needs improvement in detecting phishing pages."
"There is room for improvement in the response time of customer service and support levels."
"When you add new projects for the same product, it either duplicates or replaces the scan configuration. If I run a scan for the same product with a different scan configuration, it should keep the previous scan configuration and not replace it with the new scan configuration. It should just add the new scan configuration. That would be helpful. They do keep the results as it is, but the scan configuration keeps changing. For example, I have set a scan configuration to a full scan, and next week, I want to run a new scan for the same product with some changes or new functionalities. I want to run a partial scan. Currently, if I change the scan configuration to partial, it changes the old one also to partial. That should be improved."
"The interface should be a little bit easier to manage. Sometimes, the logic that they use is kind of strange."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The flexibility in pricing is advantageous, and being a special partner allows for negotiating special rates based on the project requirements."
"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"When it comes to price, the paramount consideration is the strength of the security. If the security measures provided by the product, such as Check Point Infinity, are robust and meet our requirements, price becomes a secondary concern."
"The product has good pricing considering the features and a global approach."
"The pricing of Check Point Infinity could be better. There is a license needed to use the solution and we pay annually."
"Check Point should provide an enterprise-wide license where the organization should be provided free hand of using any license or services for an agreed period of time (EULA)."
"The solution's price is quite high, and the licensing model requires extra licenses for various features like SD-WAN."
"They offer a good price, but I don't remember its cost. It is fair as compared to the competition. We have opted for project-based licensing, not user-based. We can add any number of users. That doesn't matter. It is worth the money."
"I'm not sure how much it costs exactly, but I know it's expensive."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec is cheap."
"I rate Rapid7 InsightAppSec’s pricing an eight out of ten."
"Its price is competitive. It is not expensive."
"The price of this product is very cheap."
