Simplified threat detection and reduced policy deployment time
The standout features of Check Point Security Management are unified policy management, real-time visibility, and automation capabilities, making it a powerful tool for security management. Consistency across environments with Check Point Security Management helps me ensure that instead of maintaining separate rules for firewalls, cloud workloads, and data centers, we apply one unified policy that covers them all. This reduces misconfigurations and ensures compliance, proving to be a time-saver because rolling out a new rule or updating an existing one takes minutes, not hours, because it is propagated everywhere automatically. Automation is one of the most valuable aspects of Check Point Security Management, and it often does not get enough attention compared to headline features like unified policies or visibility. With policy automation, routine tasks such as rule creation, compliance checks, or policy updates can be automated, reducing human error and saving hours of manual work. Check Point Security Management has simplified administration in my organization because instead of juggling multiple consoles, everything is managed from a single pane of glass. This has reduced complexity and saved significant time for our IT team, improving our operational efficiency. For a policy update, I used to spend two or three hours across multiple consoles. Now, with unified management in Check Point Security Management, it takes thirty to forty minutes, resulting in about a seventy percent reduction in effort, greatly boosting productivity.

Offers in-memory protection at a lower price than competitors
Morphisec's in-memory protection is probably the most valuable feature because it stops malicious activity from occurring. If something tries to install or act as a sleeper agent, Morphisec will detect and stop it. Morphisec's Moving Target Defense is critical to hardening our attack surface. If it detects something, it indicates whether it's valid. That means you've got a breach requiring investigation. It detects anomalies but doesn't necessarily point to what caused them. You still need to do that work. The solution is reasonably easy to administer. They made some changes last year, adding a cloud-based monitoring solution that makes deploying and monitoring our endpoints easy.

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 Security Management has improved the management of all our Security Check Point Gateway Firewalls across the bank, simplifying our response and support for all our security network devices and proving far better and less daunting than products that need to be managed individually."
"Check Point has been very effective in terms of threat management and comprehensive protection against vulnerabilities, and it has given us confidence that our data is not going anywhere."
"The product's installation phase was easy."
"I love the URL filtering as well as the identification capabilities which link with the Active Directory and work for me even with bandwidth regulation. These allow me to select to whom to do what, and when."
"Regarding the tool's valuable features, I would say that Check Point is a very accessible and fast tool, especially when dealing with logs for the first time."
"Check Point Security Management has a great feature that allows you to automate the request of the automated server."
"Check Point Security Management has positively impacted my organization by saving a lot of time because we have a lot of firewalls, and it provides a console where I can see directly all the managed firewalls, allowing us to manage all of our firewalls from just one point."
"It works similarly to other management software in the industry, but Check Point is far beyond all others due to its management log monitoring functionality."
"If you have the ability to get Morphisec into their environment, it's going to be a hundred percent return on investment."
"Morphisec is a straightforward solution that is efficient and very stable."
"Morphisec has enabled us to become a lot less paranoid when it comes to staff clicking on things or accessing things that they shouldn't that could infect the whole system. Our original ransomware attack that happened came from someone's Google drive and then just filtered on through that. It has put our minds at ease a lot more in running it. It's also another layer of security that has been proven to be effective for us."
"Morphisec gives me even more than Microsoft can give me, even if I were to pay."
"All the alerts are on the dashboard, which is quite simple and useful for us. You can easily check all the alerts that are being blocked or allowed, or whatever the action is. You can easily see that and you can take the necessary actions. You can add a PowerShell extension or any activities for blocking at your network level or for endpoints."
"The simplicity of the solution, how easy it is to deploy and how small it is when deployed as an agent on a device, is probably the biggest aspect, given what it can do."
"With Morphisec, at least when it does happen, I feel confident that we have in place solutions that will not only prevent it, but also let us know when something has happened."
"Morphisec is quite an important tool for us in terms of security and InfoSec because of the malware protection."
 

Cons

"You need some technical expertise to use the solution. I don't think it's accessible to the typical end-user. You need to access the box and use some command lines or the web interface. It would be nice to have a user-friendly dashboard and comprehensive reporting."
"I believe they can improve the management by allowing better API functionality because the API now is a little complicated, making it difficult to do automation."
"The graphical interface is nice but it is a bit heavy."
"Check Point's hybrid cloud integration needs significant improvements. These resources need to evolve as data transfers to the cloud increase, so hybrid cloud models are easier to implement. Better hybrid cloud integration would improve how we manage our security logs and provide our administrators with a low-cost solution that enables them to meet all our essential requirements."
"It also offers compatibility with third-party security solutions, however, it is not a lot. This needs to be improved."
"Check Point Security Management could be improved by enhancing its user interface, expanding third-party integrations, and refining reports and automation capabilities to make it more intuitive and scalable for diverse enterprise environments."
"While the console and administration work well, they have to work on performance since it consumes a lot of CPU and memory."
"While Check Point Security Management handles large environments well, performance and scalability could be improved because log queries and reporting generation can sometimes be slower under heavy loads."
"Some of the filters for the console need improvement. There are alerts that show up and just being able to acknowledge that we've seen those and not turn them off, but dismiss them, would be a huge benefit."
"Morphisec is a venture startup. They are still early in their growth stage. They need to get mature on their customer support and on how they interface with system tools."
"I haven't been able to get the cloud deployment to work."
"Overall, I don't know 100% if it's increasing our security posture, but it does give us a nice peace of mind."
"I haven't seen ROI because I haven't seen a threat that it has protected against, exactly."
"Automating reports needs improvement. I would like to have better reporting capabilities within it or automated reporting to be a little bit more dynamic. That's something I know they're working on. We literally are in the process. We started the process a week and a half ago of going to their latest version, so I've not seen their latest one up and running yet."
"We wanted to have multi-tenants in their cloud platform, so every entity can look into their own systems and not see other systems in other entities. I have a beta version on that now. I would like them to incorporate that in the cloud solution."
"The dashboard is the area that requires the most improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing can be estimated around 3 or 4 out of 10 in terms of expense."
"Check Point is much cheaper than the competition ($4/server as compared to $17/server)."
"The solution is expensive."
"If one will be very expensive, and ten means low price, I rate the tool's price as a three out of ten."
"Price-wise, it is an expensive solution."
"This product can be used for 25 security gateways on a basic license."
"Do the homework because Check Point is rather expensive."
"The solution is expensive and there is an annual license."
"Licenses are per endpoint, and that's true for the cloud version as well. The only difference is that there is a little extra charge for the cloud version."
"Our licensing is tied into our contract. Because we have a long-term contract, our pricing is a little bit lower. It is per year, so we don't get charged per endpoint, but we do have a cap. Our cap is 80 endpoints. If we were to go over 80, when we renewed our contract, which is not until three years are over. Then, they would reevaluate, and say, "Well, you have more than 80 devices active right now. This is going to be the price change." They know that we are installing and replacing computers, so the numbers will be all over the place depending on whether you archive or don't archive, which is the reason why we just have to keep up on that stuff."
"Compared to their competitors, the price of Morphisec is not that high. You can easily deploy it on a large-scale or small-scale network."
"We are still using a separate tool. I know for our 600 or I think we're actually licensed for up to 700 users, it runs me 23 or $24,000 a year. When you're talking to that many users plus servers being protected, that's well worth the investment for that dollar amount."
"It is priced correctly for what it does. They end up doing a good deal of discounting, but I think it is priced appropriately."
"It is an annual subscription basis per device. For the devices that we have in scope right now, it is about $25,000 a year."
"Morphisec is reasonably priced because our parent company's other subsidiaries use different products like CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is four or five times more expensive than Morphisec. The competitive pricing saves us money in our overall security stack."
"It does not have multi-tenants. If South Africa wants to show only the machines that they have, they need their own cloud incidence. It is not possible to have that in a single cloud incidence with multiple tenants in it, instead you need to have multiple cloud incidences. Then, if you have that, it will be more expensive. However, they are going to change that, which is good."
