What differentiates Check Point Next Generation Secure Web Gateway from other similar products?

Providing a safe and quick entry point to the internet while protecting the firm from online dangers. Nowadays, many businesses rely on distant internet-connected locations, making it essential to have rapid, secure access to these sites.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Though there will always be some getting used to involved security procedures, Check Point has always provided excellent documentation that even novices can understand. The product's reliability has always been high, and if the system encountered a situation in which it was unsure of what to do, it would promptly issue an alarm. Since the year 2000, we have used this product without any problems.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Some really unusual choices still need a command line prompt and script. I have to go to the prompt maybe twice a year, and each time requires a lot of prep work since I know that adding a gui might occasionally degrade security.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Prove It! Cyber dangers and possible viruses are kept out of our system and devices in real time with the aid of Next Generation Firewalls, so we never have to worry about the safety of our computer network. Seeing increased trust from our consumers is helpful in attracting new customers and business partners.
