Check Point CloudGuard WAF Reviews

Check Point CloudGuard Application Security helps us ensure the security of contact devices and meet audit requirements for compliance. 

The tool performs device health checkups and updates us. It helps us to be compliant with regulatory policies. 

Check Point CloudGuard Application Security needs to improve updates on integrations. It also needs to incorporate real-time monitoring features. 

I have been using the product for two years. 

We encountered stability issues during the configuration. The tool's stability is good. 

Check Point CloudGuard Application Security is scalable. My company has 1000 users for it. 

The tool's support is good. 

Positive

Check Point CloudGuard Application Security's deployment is easy and completed in six hours. You need two to three resources to handle the deployment. You need proper training to do it. 

The tool's licensing costs are yearly and competitive. 

I rate Check Point CloudGuard Application Security an eight out of ten. 

CloudGuard for Application Security came to provide a layer and organization of security to our company. The management of the devices became easier and faster to manage. In addition, the tool had very good reviews since it is the one in the market with the best detection rate of threats.

The solution is scalable, reliable, and does not present many false positives. 

In addition, CloudGuard for Application Security helped us with its AI. With the ability to assess vulnerabilities, it helps us with the best practices to implement in the company.

CloudGuard for Application Security one of its most valuable features is that it can be integrated into an API more easily and effortlessly. 

It is also a very scalable and stable solution. That is one of the points that a company looks for when implementing something like this in an organization. 

With this tool, we have been able to release the overload that was being caused in the IT department and be able to focus on other security functions and thus be able to apply all good practices and be able to manage security 100% of the time. 

CloudGuard for Application Security, like the other Check Point applications, has been presenting major latency problems when entering their administrative portal. That should be one of the priorities to take into account. 

They must also improve the support provided to the client and improve the documentation library. 

The tool fulfills the functionality very well. Hopefully, the next improvements will surprise us with something new since at present it fulfills the security expectations very well.

it was implemented approximately one year ago.

The stability it presents is excellent. It goes up to 100%.

The scalability that it presents is very good.

The support must be improved. It presents a lot of deficiency.

Positive

No previous solution was implemented.

The configuration is very simple and the product is easy to implement.

We had an engineer that helped us with the implementation. Overall, it was fast and good.

The investment that is made is an investment that will be reflected in the security. It's worth it. 

The cost is competitive in the market.

We wanted to continue with the same horizon as we have several Check Point solutions in our environment.

The solution works very well. They just need to improve the support and documentation.

This security management system allows teams to evaluate the performance of applications and identify vulnerabilities that could affect performance. 

It has deployed reliable security measures that can easily detect any potential data leaks and cyber-attacks. Before we develop any application Check Point CloudGuard Application Security provides the best data protection tools that be configured easily with the new application. We have been able to scale down workflows and monitor appropriately the entire production ecosystem.

We have prevented many potential threats that could be a major setback to our set goals. 

After integrating AppSec with other applications, team members can easily work without fear of confidential information exposure. It has really empowered employees with modern online security measures that can affect business progress. 

Learning new security coding techniques has been a great opportunity for my team and the entire organization. We have quashed many authentication and code injection attempts by ransomware attacks to secure our networking infrastructure.

Sensitive data exposure models have helped in guarding the privacy of company and customer information from landing in unauthorized hands. 

Confidential details like bank statements and the financial status of employees is very sensitive and can easily be exposed to cyber-attacks. AppSec has created a secure environment that allows members to create and manage their personal email accounts and related personal data. 

Application security configuration gives the IT team and authorized personnel to have full access and control of workflows without fear.

The creation of security profiles for each application takes a lot of time. The new release can have a unified security control system that can access the security situation of all applications from one single source. 

The system blocks some authorized data entries that are not threats. AppSec could easily deploy a system with set commands that can be used to block unsafe operations and authorize areas of interest based on the user's needs. I have loved the way this software works, and I am impressed by the increased security across the applications.

I've used the solution for eight months.

It is stable throughout.

This software is good and the performance is excellent.

The customer support staff is dedicated to delivering the best services ever.

Positive

We decided to test the performance of this product for the first time, and it impressed the departments.

The setup process was straightforward, and the vendor guided us effectively.

Deployment took place through the vendor team.

ROI has increased from 40% to 65% in eight months.

The price is good for all businesses.

I did not consider other options.

We could not have prevented many external attacks without AppSec. I am happy due to its great performance.

We had the need to protect the computers in the cloud that we were migrating, giving them greater security and having control over the events and tasks that they execute. 

This need led us to have and search for a solution that would support us directly with containers and the security of our access APIs. 

Above all, we needed something that would give us added value when implementing, and that was where we came to use Check Point AppSec. 

Its main value and what we liked the most is its powerful AI.

With so many tasks that we have at the administration level, as administrators, we find this solution as one of the best recommendations due to its powerful AI. It supports us to be scalable and learn in management with the data it is learning. 

Zero-day management and preemptive stop management provide detection in hours, not weeks. These help us to be much more proactive and efficient in our security management and in much of what we have in the cloud and the infrastructure that we have been migrating to the various cloud.

Among its most outstanding features is the powerful AI in container security. Above all, it is one of the most powerful and easy-to-manage solutions. It manages to protect itself, and it manages to include its new rules based on what manages to learn. This helps us protect web applications and APIs by eliminating false positives and stops automated attacks against our organization. It eliminates the need to adjust rules manually and create exceptions each time an update is performed.

We would like to have a solution of this type for the administration of applications from mobile devices. It would help us to be more portable with management from tablets, iPads, or some cell phones, becoming easier to administer. 

We'd lie to see it take on the characteristics of quantum applications and have these solutions all in one, protecting us and giving us even more value than what it is giving us today. 

I've used the solution for one year.

We did not previously use a different solution.

We did not evaluate other options.

The solution's strongest point is that you can connect everything to it, giving you a full view of what's connected. If you configure it right, it works perfectly.

You need to know exactly the system. You cannot have someone running the system if they don't have the knowledge to do so.

I've been working with the solution for about a year.

The solution is stable. It doesn't matter which device is running Check Point. The solution works. It has never gone down. I rate the solution's stability a ten out of ten.

My clients are large, but they are not enterprise-sized or small.

I rate the initial setup a five out of ten because it is easy if you have the required knowledge and difficult if you are new to the system. The challenge isn't installing it: "Next, next, next, finish." Even a less knowledgeable person can do that. The challenge is configuring the system. There are a lot of blades in CloudGuard. You need to keep each type of security in your view, except for the Check Point view.

The initial setup is very fast, but you need to pray that the solution does all the work itself.

Other unified platforms like QRadar and Cisco are comparatively easier to use.

You need someone knowledgeable to run the system. Today, with all the technology and everything, the company just wants to buy control and be lazy. "Let Check Point do the work." But this does not happen with Check Point because you need professional eyes. Check Point's price is very low compared to those controlling the system. You have to learn to investigate the solution to work better with it. The knowledge costs more than the system. The solution has a hybrid deployment, and I don't know a company that only chooses one deployment or another.

There is no support available for Check Point. There are things you have to look for, and that's it.

Check Point is the world's first and probably best security company. They might change its face, give it new names, separate into new models, and so on, but in the end, they are the best security company in the world. I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

The importance and use of this product were required to improve new application deployments made in the Microsoft Azure cloud. They were not one hundred percent secure, however with this CloudGuard application security from Check Point has managed to improve all these requirements to obtain greater security.

The applications are generally internal to the company, however, they are secure thanks to Check Point CloudGuard.                                   

Check Point CloudGuard Application Security is a cloud-based security solution designed to protect web applications and APIs from various types of cyber threats.

This tool has managed to improve security considerably in our apps and the APIs created for the company. We have not presented problems, threats, or leaks even when some are exposed to the Internet and are more susceptible to attacks. The company is now more secure, thanks to Check Point.                                             

The solution is created one hundred percent on the cloud; the portal is easy to manage.

The solution offers continuous security monitoring and alerting, which can help organizations detect and respond to security incidents in real time.

CloudGuard Application Security provides comprehensive visibility into web applications and API traffic

The solution offers support for compliance regulations such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR, helping organizations to meet their regulatory obligations.

One of the big problems we found in Check Point, in general, is the support. It is always attended very late or they take a long time to answer.

The cost of this tool is extremely high, which is why it must be analyzed before implementing it.

The support language is only English. This causes some problems in Spanish-speaking countries. They could expand the languages offered to help the client.

This excellent security tool, Check Point CloudGuard, has multi-cloud security and is also perfect for secure developments. It's been used in recent years by the company.

Previously we did not use a technology like this.

We always carry out tests and validations before acquiring a solution.

We require the use of a solid security tool for our websites provisioned in Microsoft Azure App Service, which is used for internal use by the company and for external use by the client.

The key requirements that we needed to solve were to have automated protection, to have little administration in addition to providing few false positives, all this was successfully solved or provided through CloudGuard Application Security, in addition to the fact that we were able to centralize everything in the whole family. 

Thanks to the centralized use of Check Point CloudGuard App Security we managed to have protection for our Windows and Linux sites, in addition to having little interaction with exceptions due to having this tool in prevention mode.

This tool does not require a lot of learning time, it is incredible. With other tools, adaptation time is required, which with Check Point is not necessary.

We have also been able to find a sensible implementation of the application, providing confidence and business peace of mind.

Check Point CloudGuard Application Security offers us many virtues, the ones we liked the most were:

• Easy and simple implementation from the Check Point Infinity portal

• Very few false positives, which generates a lot of confidence in the product

• The portal is quite intuitive

• The solution does not require much time to adapt to the sites and applications it protects.

In itself, the application really meets our expectations. At the management level, the solution is what was needed to protect this area of the company's infrastructure.

This Check Point solution is an extremely complete security solution, it is really amazing. However, there are always improvements that can be made to all of the tools.

We would like the solution to be more economical since it is not accessible to all clients or is a point of consideration.

Regarding the documentation, starting implementation was not so clear. We had to validate several guides until we could do it correctly.

Finally, we would like the Infinity portal perform better.

During this last year we have been adding the use of CloudGuard checkpoint for the protection of our infrastructure in Microsoft Azure.

It is a cloud solution, managed by Check Point. So far we have not had performance problems.

We previously tested Microsoft Azure Application Gateway with the WAF feature. However, two points led us to switch to Check Point:

1- We wanted a centralized security environment. We already have Check Point solutions based on the infinity checkpoint portal.

2- The WAF solution required more time in detection mode.

Costs are an important issue to discuss with the partner. Validate the documentation and its scope to validate if they meet corporate requirements.

We always evaluate the solutions in the market to make the best decision.

With CloudGuard WAF, I can deploy a cloud-based network protection solution that secures my applications, endpoints, and data.

The features I have found most valuable are the comprehensive threat prevention capabilities, automated policy management, and seamless integration with cloud environments.

For the next release, I would suggest considering features like enhanced threat intelligence integration.

I have been using Check Point CloudGuard WAF for about two years.

The stability of the product has been good so far.

Check Point's technical support is helpful and knowledgeable overall, but there can be delays in response, especially regarding licensing issues.

The main reasons I chose this vendor for web application security were their ability to consolidate management facilities, their comprehensive features, and their flexibility in addressing different security needs.

We have seen ROI from using CloudGuard WAF.

I believe that the pricing or licensing of CloudGuard WAF could be more competitive.

Implementing CloudGuard WAF allowed me to address the challenges of securing my applications and data in a rapidly evolving cloud environment.

Using CloudGuard WAF has brought significant benefits, including improved threat protection, streamlined policy management, and enhanced usability. I noticed these advantages shortly after the first deployment.

It is extremely important to me that CloudGuard optimizes security to protect my applications without solely relying on signatures.

To access the false positive rate, I typically review assessment reports available on platforms like AWS or Azure. By evaluating how effectively the solution preemptively blocks zero-day attacks and minimizes false positives, I can reduce the total cost of ownership for my web application security.

The solution's privacy features, user-friendly web console, virtual deployment options, and physical appliance capabilities have all contributed to reducing my total cost of ownership.

Overall, I would rate CloudGuard WAF as an eight out of ten.
