What do you dislike about Check Point CloudGuard Network Security?

one can only get cloud trail and VPC logs.

using terraform to manage security policies can be tricky at times and might need to be reviewed to ensure objecte are created as per the expectation, these are not logged to ensure terraform state and the checkpoint databases are in sync with eachother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point CloudGuard Network Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

unlike native services specific to provider cloudgaurd provides cross platform support meaning that i can still get overall security of the cloud environments across the various proiders from a single dashboard and CloudGuard Network Security provides inspection throughout many parts of the cloud network.

it is easy to use and implement

UI is very clean and understandable

supports custom rulesets

traffic explorer comes handy to provide easy understanding on the network traffic

customer support is satisfactory Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Check Point CloudGuard Network Security?

Using CloudGuard network security allows for a familiar implementation with all the features of an onprem appliance. The deployment can be completely codified using Terrafrom, allowing for reapeatable deployments for each region. Using the AWS GWLB and endpoint service, inspecition can be extended to any / all member accounts for ingress / egress inspection. The GWLB deployment also allows for right sizing of EC2s that can increase/decrease with autoscaling. The policy can also be codified using Terraform, allowing for teams to inner-source access requests, but ensuring the proper security teams can still approve the access before it is rolled out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Check Point CloudGuard Network Security?

When using Terraform to manage the security policy, the object creation layout needs to be well thought through to ensure objects are created as disired. Also, publishing changes needs to be accounted for on Terraform apply success and failures so Terraform state and the Check Point database stay in sync. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point CloudGuard Network Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

CloudGuard Network Security provides inspection throughout many parts of the cloud network.

1. Inspection of traffic from the internet inbound to a VPC.

2. Inspection of traffic from a VPC to the internet. Internet categories and applications can be used instead of having to know each exact FQDN, which would be a major pain and struggle for engineering teams.

3. Inspection between VPCs

4. Inspeciton between VPCs and on-prem

5. IPS

6. Detailed traffic logging

7. Identity based access

Since this deployment is EC2 based, traffic mirroing is also possible to enable external IDS systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
