(A few) Check Point CloudGuard Features
With Automate DevSecOps, CloudGuard allows organizations to shift-left for DevOps to seamlessly evaluate, scale, and deploy your security in real-time. It’s done through integration with tools like CloudFormation and Terraform. And automatically define applications security profiles and enforce zero trust boundaries between workloads.
Cloud Network Security
Public Cloud Network Security provides advanced threat prevention and security through a virtual security gateway. It is automated and unified across all your multi-cloud and on-premises environments. It provides cloud native protection with the industry’s highest security effectiveness.
The Cloud Security Posture Management automates governance across multi-cloud assets and services. The High Fidelity Posture Management feature visualizes and assesses security posture, detects misconfigurations, and actively enforces gold standard policies. It protects against attacks and insider threats, and gives cloud security intelligence for intrusion detection, all from one unified platform.
And, with Cloud Intelligence and Threat Hunting, you can detect anomalies, activate alerts, quarantine threats, and remediate threats automatically. You will have the largest threat intelligence feed at your fingertips to make this easy.
So advanced, it’s simple
Check Point CloudGuard is much more advanced than the native cloud security options, as you’d expect. There are far more options available. And the powerful management tools included give you great flexibility with Check Point.
You can tune whatever you want and however you need it. With other cloud providers, there is much less granularity. That makes native options simpler to manage, but you have less flexibility to customize it to your needs.

The visibility is a real plus. The single-pane-of-glass allows you to see all of your edge protection through one window and one log, which is great. Monitoring everything through one pane of glass is extremely valuable.
Their IPS feature nicely updates signatures regularly and does a lot of other things automatically in the background, a lot of hassle. You know exactly what you’re looking at and what I need to enable.
In addition, the reporting gives you a great deal of flexibility in building your own custom reports.
