Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: CHKP), the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, today announced that it has received a Silver SearchNetworking.com™ 2007 Product Leadership Award in the Endpoint Security category.
According to SearchNetworking.com: “Check Point’s Integrity endpoint security suite won our silver award for endpoint security, with users praising its ability to perform policy-based access control and the range of policy checks that can be performed. A high percentage of users also gave Check Point Integrity high marks for enforcement options and integration with existing infrastructure. Logging and reporting, scalability, ease of installing, configuring and administering also scored well, while vendor service and support and ROI were voted good or excellent by more than 50% of Integrity users.”
“It is an honor to be named as a Silver winner in the ‘Product Leadership Award’ endpoint security category as it shows that customers see the value of Check Point’s pure security focus, which results in the best enterprise security and enterprise security manageability,” said Laura Yecies, vice president of marketing at Check Point Software Technologies. “It’s especially gratifying that our customers gave us kudos for both the quality and manageability of Integrity’s network access control (NAC) capabilities.”
SearchNetworking.com™ 2007 Product Leadership Awards span 12 networking product categories and recognize 35 products that enterprise IT professionals should consider adding to their "A" lists of networking products to evaluate. Winning products were selected by 1,400 networking professionals based on their assessment of products currently deployed within their own enterprises. Participants were asked to evaluate the networking products according to defined product-specific criteria each of which was assigned a weighted value based on importance, with cumulative scores calculated for each product. SearchNetworking.com editors used these scores to determine Gold, Silver and Bronze award winners for the industry's best networking products.
Check Point's Integrity provides NAC capabilities and protects PCs and the enterprise networks they connect to against the worms, spyware, and intrusion attempts that evade other endpoint security technologies, helping to ensure that every PC that connects to the enterprise network is secure. Because Integrity is part of Check Point's Unified Security Architecture, Integrity is more easily deployed, integrated and administered than alternative solutions. Additionally it stops malware and hacker attacks, and maintains business continuity, supports regulatory compliance and protects against financial loss resulting from endpoint attacks.
Integrity is part of Check Point’s Total Access Protection framework for NAC, and offers enterprises the most complete endpoint security solution, including firewall, intrusion prevention and out-bound threat protection. The ability of Integrity to enforce access policy compliance via Cooperative Enforcement™ with Check Point’s security gateways, as well as network infrastructure and security gateways from other vendors, ensures end-to-end protection for all forms of network access. The complete Integrity product line delivers Total Access Protection for the enterprise, ensuring that all enterprise PCs—employee and guest, internal and remote, wired and wireless—are protected from worms, spyware, and hacker attacks in order to maintain business continuity, support regulatory compliance and prevent financial losses due to endpoint attacks. Check Point Integrity is the only endpoint security solution from a major security vendor to achieve Common Criteria EAL4 certification, validating it as the most trustworthy and certified protection against threats to mission critical corporate and government networks.
