The Check Point Vision: A Unified Security Architecture
One of the greatest challenges facing organizations today is getting more out of their security solutions. Over the years as new security threats emerged, new point solutions were added to defend the network as part of a defense in depth strategy. Organizations around the world have spent billions of dollars in a sprawling security infrastructure to defend their networks, yet are they any safer? Attacks now cross multiple systems, hackers have new tools to create better attacks, and the time it takes to compromise a system has shrunk dramatically. The sprawling security infrastructure, while delivering multi-layers of security, has hampered an organizations ability to coordinate and monitor their security solutions to counter complex attacks and update their systems with the latest defenses.
Check Point has created the Unified Security Architecture to drive more out of an organizations security system and greatly increase the effectiveness and efficiency of network security.
The Unified Security Architecture has the following main components:
Common Core Technologies
Security solutions often share common tasks regardless of where they are deployed. These tasks range from authentication, encryption, stateful firewall to intrusion prevention. Yet traditional security solutions implement these tasks in each product in very different ways, even within the same vendor. This leads to configuration inconsistencies, increased staff training requirements, additional operational overhead, and results in silo-ed security tasks that can neither scale nor interoperate. To overcome this shortcoming, the Check Point Unified Security Architecture shares common technologies across multiple security products. The results are solutions that share a common configuration for essential security elements like authentication, stateful firewall, and intrusion prevention. This provides a high degree of interoperability and results in greater system-wide visibility.
Unified Security Management
An effective security policy encompasses the procedures, policies, risk analysis, and risk mitigation safeguards the organization uses to protect information. Technology acts as the critical enforcement and implementation of that policy within the network. Traditionally, organizations have been responsible for determining how to express and configure this policy piecemeal in individual security solutions. Manually implementing parts of a security policy in a sprawling security infrastructure has greatly increased complexity and operational overhead required to maintain the system. The Check Point Unified Security Architecture addresses this problem so organizations can view, configure, monitor, and modify their security policy across their security infrastructure from within a single console. Through the centralization of security management, organizations can more easily and effectively enforce their high-level security policy in technology deployed across the entire organization.
Open Architecture
Network and security architectures are complex and constantly evolving, so organizations both large and small need security technologies that can adapt quickly. Often the best defense against today’s multi-vector threats is one where the components of both the network and security infrastructure cooperate to enforce security policy. Check Point has built its security architecture to be open and interoperable in a heterogeneous environment. Our software can be deployed on multiple hardware platforms, giving the customer the flexibility to deploy the hardware that best meets the needs of their environment. In addition, Check Point products are interoperable with leading network and security technologies from other vendors to enable cooperative enforcement of security policies. We have certified over 300 solutions for interoperability and continue to actively partner with the world’s largest and most advanced IT technology vendors to develop open solutions that can adapt to changing threats and infrastructure requirements.
Universal Updateability
Over the years, attacks and threats have increased in both frequency and speed. Traditional security solutions frequently involve patching and updating that must be done product by product and often requires network downtime. This inhibits an organization’s ability to quickly deploy security protections in a timely manner. Through the Check Point Unified Security Architecture, organizations can deploy the latest security protections to all their Check Point solutions from a single location and without requiring network down time. Delivered through the SmartDefense Services, organizations can ensure their security protections are up to date while decreasing the time and operational expenses required deploying them.
