My main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is to secure laptops and desktops across our organization, including remote endpoints, providing layered defense against malware, zero-day attacks, phishing, and data loss, making it a critical part of our endpoint security stack.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization by significantly improving our security posture, especially for remote and hybrid users, with approximately 400 out of our 500 members working from home, leading to almost 90% of security being handled by this product. It helps protect endpoints from advanced threats through behavioral analysis, real-time threat protection, and simplified endpoint management through the cloud-based console. The solution has also improved compliance and risk management to ensure endpoints meet security standards even outside the corporate network.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers robust protection against malware, ransomware, and phishing attacks, and I particularly appreciate its behavioral analysis and anti-ransomware capabilities, with the central management console being integrative and making policy management easy across devices.

My advice for others looking into using Check Point Harmony Endpoint is to allocate time for proper configuration and policy tuning during the initial steps and to take advantage of Check Point's documentation and support resources. This will be helpful during integration or initiation of the setup, especially if they already have other Check Point devices, which would enhance their security posture and streamline management.

While using Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I find that the initial deployment can be a bit complex, especially for large or distributed environments, requiring proper planning and familiarity with the Check Point ecosystem. There can be occasional false positives that need to be manually reviewed and whitelisted.

I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for almost one or two years.

From my perspective as a user, it was moderately easy but not overly complicated to deploy Check Point Harmony Endpoint in our environment.

We use AWS as our cloud provider because Check Point's cloud-based management is managed on AWS infrastructure in various regions for our customers.

The initial setup with Check Point Harmony Endpoint for my team was straightforward.

I have indeed seen a return on investment from Check Point Harmony Endpoint, as it has been really helpful. The earlier EDR devices we used were more time-consuming, and deploying that particular agent on all devices took time, but the centralized management console has significantly reduced both time consumption and the extra manual efforts required.

Before choosing Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I evaluated other options, specifically CrowdStrike.

For protecting remote endpoints using Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I deploy security policies that ensure protection for users even when they are outside the corporate network, such as working from home or on public Wi-Fi. This includes cloud-based management where policy updates are pushed via Infinity Portal allowing centralized management for remote devices, implementing antivirus and anti-malware components with real-time scanning and cloud-based signature updates, alongside policies that block or control the copy-paste or upload of sensitive data to unmanaged networks.

I haven't performed any type of integration with other AWS services, as my role is as a user observing the monitoring perspective of the alerts and analyzing incidents on the console itself.

On a scale of 1-10, I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint a 9.

The main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint in our organization is to use it with the Check Point NGX Firewall for a unified threat prevention strategy, with approximately around 2000 users and multiple endpoints across multiple branches, ensuring safety from advanced protection against malware, phishing, ransomware, and zero-day attacks. Our environment includes both Windows and macOS, with central management done via cloud hosted Infinity Portal to protect our endpoints.

Since implementing Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I have noticed a positive impact on our organization as we receive multiple detections of attack activities in the log section, showing how the solution protects our network. This allows users to stay focused on their work without disruption from attacks, ultimately saving time and enhancing productivity.

The best features of Check Point Harmony Endpoint that stand out are anti-ransomware and threat emulation, which are crucial for protecting and blocking unwanted malicious threats and ransomware before they can execute anything on the user's system, along with Zero Phishing Protection, real-time URL filtering, and an anti-phishing mechanism that has greatly reduced the number of successful phishing attacks on our users' systems.

Centralized management via Infinity Portal is user-friendly and allows central policy management, while the detailed telemetry of forensic insights helps the SOC team identify attack vectors and understand what executes on the system during malicious content attempts, making it overall effective in protecting endpoints in various aspects.

The anti-ransomware and threat emulation features have significantly helped our organization as they prevent attackers from encrypting files during ransomware attacks, allowing the system to re-decrypt files and restore them to their original forms, effectively stopping ransomware attacks.

In terms of improvement, the Endpoint Agent can be more lightweight so that older machines and laptops can easily handle its consumption, which would enhance the overall performance in our environment.

I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for more than one and a half years.
