Overall Satisfaction with Check Point ThreatCloud
Check Point ThreatCloud is the core of Checkpoint products and services for intelligence sharing, threat exchange, detection, and prevention. It’s unique in terms of integrating at endpoint devices, networking devices, and cloud GWs and even on CSPM services. We generally purchase the perimeter next-generation firewalls with TX modules. TX and TP modules are automatically integrated with [Check Point] ThreatCloud. I prefer the TE and TX with cloud-enabled. This lowers the cost of operations. Even the TP modules are integrated with the threat cloud. TPs are not meant to be zero-day. However, mixing the TE/TX with TPs decreases the 0day catching times. NGFWs without TP even use [Check Point] ThreatCloud indirectly. Malware URLs/IPs are exchanged through [Check Point] ThreatCloud. We measure the effectiveness of [Check Point] ThreatCloud through cyber breach solutions. [The] last thing I want to mention and which is really shining is the Cloudguard CSPM and [Check Point] ThreatCloud. Colorguard/dome9 with [Check Point] ThreatCloud enablement based on the flow data is the real enhancer to dig out the missing security links throughout the Cloud installation. Last but not the least, Infinity portal integration with [Check Point] ThreatCloud completes the 360-degree overall threat hunting and forensics.

If you have the Checkpoint firewalls, the only real solution is the Check Point ThreatCloud to be used. If you have PAN - Autofocus or Fortinet-fortiguard. One advantage of Check Point ThreatCloud is the elimination of web security services, as the checkpoint with the threat cloud replaces the web security solutions with its vast features. Check Point products are very easy to use, and operation costs are much lower than the other vendors.
