What is our primary use case?
At the end of 2020, the company was growing its staff. In addition, the pandemic was beginning, and as a result of these two factors, the company needed to protect the organization. It was there that the Check Point Infinity tool was used.
It is characterized as a great tool against the latest generation of cyber attacks all these attacks are found on mobile devices, endpoints, etc. Always in the security part, companies must be aware of technologies since it is an essential part of organizations, and Check Point Infinity is an excellent tool for these functions.
How has it helped my organization?
The Check Point Infinity tool came in to reinforce security in the organization since a basic security had been implemented that put our data at risk. Using these new technologies, it has also focused on zero-trust and is able to generate complexity and security gaps in the platform of the organization so we can avoid future attacks and errors and be able to provide a quick solution.
Infinity contains all the modern Check Point components like DLP, IPS, VPN, etc. We currently use R80.10 and it helped us a lot with security and implementations.
What is most valuable?
It has come to reinforce the security architecture of the organization since it covers all the necessary pieces of security, those characteristics that it has that different cover devices regardless of the brand, also to help us maintain full control of our employees' devices and thus be able to monitor and ensure more and more security breaches. Infinity helped us a lot in real-time threat prevention, and with continuous updates, it is one of the most important points of all Check Point solutions.
What needs improvement?
One of the main improvements that can be made is the latency in the portal. It is one of the most common errors of the Check Point tools, another of the improvements is that the unlimited licenses are based on the number of users. This confuses larger organizations, where not all users need all services.
Finally, they must improve the technical support they provide to users since we have opened several cases and they take time to attend to them or contact us, and in certain cases, they do not provide a quick solution. They take a long time to solve the error problem in question, which is worrying since, due to this inefficiency, they could attack the organization since there may be a gap in the infrastructure of the organization.
