Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, ESET and others in Advanced Threat Protection (ATP)."The most valuable feature of Check Point Infinity is the ease of use and navigation."
"Infinity is a technical console where we have to log in, and we can navigate to all the products very easily because it is written in a normal installation. People who know about the product can click and take care of their activity."
"The sandblast threat emulation is great."
"Powerful cyber security functionalities track workflows to block all threats that may arise and affect the workflow chain."
"New Check Point technologies can be found via this portal."
"The initial implementation was accomplished easily and without deployment problems."
"The Check Point Infinity security architecture enables organizations to fully implement all of the Zero Trust Principles."
"It has come to reinforce the security architecture of the organization since it covers all the necessary pieces of security."
"It gives us the capability to rotate passwords."
"It is scalable."
"The combination of CPM and PSM resolves a lot of use cases."
"The Vault offers great capabilities for structuring and accessing data."
"CyberArk PAM can be easily automated."
"CyberArk has helped us to identify, store, protect, and monitor the usage of privileged accounts."
"Automatic password management, which will automatically change passwords based on compliance requirements."
"We are utilizing CyberArk to secure applications, credentials, and endpoints."
"We need improvement around the Smart-1 cloud solution."
"It seems that the performance varies, likely influenced by the client's size and the provisioning of resources."
"I think that the pricing for the Check Point products should be reconsidered, as we found it to be quite expensive to purchase and to maintain."
"The cost of maintaining and purchasing the security components is high."
"One of the main improvements that can be made is the latency in the portal."
"While Check Point Infinity is a robust and innovative solution, some areas could benefit from improvement. One area is the user-friendly integration of privacy-focused features."
"In the future, I would like to see new developments that allow us to centralize the cloud."
"Technical support is something that needs improvement."
"I'd like to see a more expansive SSH tunneling situation through PSMP. Right now you have an account that exists in the vault and you say, "I want to create a tunnel using this account." I'd like to see something that is not account-based where I could say, "I want to create a tunnel to this machine over here," and then authenticate through the PSMP and then your tunnel is set up. You wouldn't need to then authenticate to a machine."
"For users to access a system via CyberArk Privileged Session Manager, a universal connector needs to be coded in a language called AutoIT and its support for web browsers is so-so. Other products like Centrify have browser plugins that can help automate the process when using their products."
"Some of the additional features that we are looking at are in the Conjur product. I am specifically discussing key management, API Keys, and things for connecting applications in the CI/CD pipelines."
"I would like to see better automation in granting access, better tools, more efficient tools, to be able to customize the solution that CyberArk provides."
"We don't often contact technical support, but when we do it, the response could be faster and better."
"The web interface has come a long way, but the PrivateArk client seems clunky and not intuitive. It could use an update to be brought up to speed with the usability of PVWA."
"In the beginning, CyberArk Privileged Access Manager didn't have a multifactor authentication feature, so that was an area for improvement, but now it's part of the solution. Having just one console for two CyberArk products would be good, particularly for the CyberArk Privileged Access Manager and the CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, with the latter being a product for endpoint management that supports the workstations and allows you to manage workstations. In the next update of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager, it would be good to have a local agent where you can manage all users and processes, and have an agent on the servers such as Linux and Windows."
"Its pricing is a big challenge here. When it started, the product came in at a very low cost. Now, they are the leaders in the market, so the cost has grown and is quite huge."
