"Its event analysis and centralization features are very important for any organization."
"Check Point offers DDoS and endpoint protection called EDR or XDR, so it provides a holistic security architecture for any organization."
"IPS can protect our organization with any old vulnerabilities or if any vulnerability detected minutes ago IPS can protect us as per our configured policy."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point IPS is the management of devices and policies."
"The reports are well written so that you can understand what type of attack has occurred, the originating IP address, and other details."
"IPS easily allows follow-up flags on recently updated patterns. If, in rare cases, a false positive does occur, it is quickly detected and an exception can be easily created."
"Protection in real-time is very good. It helps us detect things on time and make decisions to improve perimeter security."
"The most valuable feature is integrity management. I had some discussions with service providers, and they also agreed."
"Its reporting features are great. It gives you an in-depth report. Its customization is also great, and it is working fine."
"File monitoring is the most valuable feature of the solution."
"We use Tripwire Enterprise as a tool to test the vulnerability of a network. That is the most valuable feature of the product for us."
"Even if you change a single word in Notepad, it will let you know whether it was added, removed, or modified."

"Check Point IPS' main problem is it is mostly software based. The performance is dependent on the CPU power, and the limited number of patterns."
"It is generally good, but improving the performance would be the one thing I'd take a look at right now."
"I would like to have the possibility of adding features to this IPS solution in the future."
"In my opinion, the Check Point software engineers should works on the performance of the blade - when it is activated with the big number of the protections in place, the monitoring shows us the significant increase in the CPU utilization for the gateway appliances - up to 30 percents, even so we are cherry-picking only the profiles that we really needed."
"We have a lot of false positives and the list of IPs are not up to date in terms of their location."
"Occasionally there are glitches and errors like false positives, which would be a nice area of this solution to improve upon."
"It needs more local support from the OEM side. It would be great if this can be improved."
"A lot of network devices need a custom integration."
"The Windows online integration license needs to be improved."
"The deployment with certain systems can be difficult and it needs to be simplified."
"The initial setup is complex."
"Cloud monitoring could be better. It would also be better if the company followed a pay-as-you-use model."
"An area for improvement in Tripwire Enterprise is stability, as my company had stability issues with the last few versions of the solution. Tripwire Enterprise has been a bit buggy."
"The main way that it can be improved is through better reporting."
