Check Point CloudGuard vs. SUSE Security

Checkpoint Cloud Guard Native Security Platform is much better in native cloud infra security requirements. It works well, and the manageability of said product is good. But If you are having some hybrid kind of environment, it is not suitable, and the products have more complexity to deploy. There are so many other players to do well in this segment.

SUSE NeuVector is exceptional when you want to make your Kubernetes cluster secure. You can limit network connections, scan containers, container registries and Kubernetes nodes for vulnerable software, forbid running specific commands on certain or all containers. You can enable security for individual containers - when SUSE NeuVector has learned container specifics. That's why you can deploy SUSE NeuVector on production Kubernetes clusters where you are already running conteiners - it will not break anything.

• Advanced Threat protection via Check Point CloudGuard proven ThreatCloud intelligence feeds for malicious IP's is a nice feature.
• We have not set up the cloud bots auto-remediation functionality yet, but from initial testing, it looks to be something worth utilizing.
• Having reporting tie in's with our ServiceNow asset management platform is very handy.

• Scans containers software for known vulnerabilities
• Denies command execution in containers
• Prevents unwanted network connections from/to containers

• Support Services - Support during implementation
• Proof-of-concept - Needs to more detailed
• Troubleshooting multi-cloud/ vendor issues
• Should contain all the compliance standards - NIST, HIPPA, FedRAMP

• I like everything about NeuVector. They are on the right development path.

Is easy to use, and the standad configuration is well prepared.

Checkpoint support is great. They provide great SLAs and they comply with service times accordingly.

Most products have their pros and cons but Dome9 does everything Evident.io and Redlock can do and more. Evident was a good tool but merging the two products into one complicated things.

SUSE NeuVector is deployed on your Kubernetes, and data does not leave your data center. Sysdig is a cloud platform - you have no full control over what happens with your data. Also, SUSE NeuVector has a capability to prevent specific command execution ir containers, but Sysdig does not have such ability. Sysdig is not an open-source solution, but SUSE NeuVector is.

• Significant $$$ cost savings as compared to other competitors in the market
• Long term contracting also helped in cost savings and good ROI - 750k USD approx
• Multi-vendor and Multi-cloud capabilities also helped us forecast the capex well
• No need of any other IAM solution - Some cost savings in that area as well for us,

• We went from being blind to what happens in the Kubernetes network to seeing everything and being able to control Kubernetes network communications.
• Now we are able to detect vulnerable containers faster.
