"SandBlast updates the threat signatures frequently."
"Very few false positives are detected, which gives the confidence to raise flags when needed, ensuring the IT department is aware of threats and acting fast."
"The solution can detect and prevent attacks that may be encrypted."
"Threat extraction can help us to remove malicious content from documents by converting them to PDF."
"The Check Point SandBlast Network gives us incredibly good features."
"The sandbox is able to scan files without adding a delay or compromising productivity."
"The GUI makes administration tasks straightforward."
"The most valuable features for me when it comes to Fortinet FortiSandbox are the integrity of the Sandbox and the power of the analyzing tool of the solution."
"What I find most valuable, is that it is easy to use."
"It is a stable solution."
"The analysis engine is a very valuable feature."
"Fortinet FortiSandbox puts suspicious files in quarantine, analyzes for virus risks, and lets them out of quarantine if it detects no risk."
"It is an easily scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature is the protection and the way it works, the technology is what I like the most."
"The guides or best practices of Check Point are difficult to find for the client. Therefore, it is sometimes difficult to make better implementations."
"Many Important controls are only available in CLI & very very complicated. All tecli command features should available on GUI so that it will become easy for normal users to monitor & control queue."
"SandBlast takes longer than FortiSandbox to complete a scan."
"I would like to see these solutions being easier to manage from mobile applications - from either iOS or Android - including other operating systems that appear in the future."
"We would like to see this solution reach mobile devices more efficiently, through apps or more specific products."
"The initial setup was complex because of the lack of information from the consultant."
"We have found a need for the application to be a bit more elastic, bringing it to SAS services and not IAS."
"We have noticed a slight performance hit when the Threat Emulation and Extraction features were enabled, but the protection trade-off is worth it for us."
"I don't know if it is viable to do an improvement like this. When there are passwords in the password-protected files, it can't scan them or do things like this. I don't know if an algorithm or something else could make it better. Nowadays, many legitimate office documents have passwords."
"If you were to compare prices between vendors and manufacturers, you would see that the lowest equipment in the Sandbox line is quite expensive for a new customer."
"It can be difficult if you need to use the Command Line Interface (CLI). It's much easier if you only have to deal with the GUI."
"Product could include a user interface and be made simpler for customers to configure."
"The reporting tools could be improved in Fortinet FortiSandbox."
"The licensing can be very confusing. It needs to be simplified."
"There could be more templates and a higher number of simulated VMs to configure more use cases. Sometimes we need to configure many use cases in many different environments, and if the number of VMs that we configure is limited, we have to remove some and reconfigure the environment if we need another environment."
"Not practical for real-time web traffic analysis because users won't wait for the FortiSandbox to complete its analysis before accessing content"
