Solid antivirus at network layer

  • October 16, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
High-level protection at the networking level. Excellent management with smart-center. Antivirus blade comes with a Threat Prevention bundle without any extra cost. The false-positive rate is very low. You can manage, operate using the Threat Prevention profiles is a big plus hence you do not need to install the firewall policy at the same time. It supports multiple protocols http/https, ftp and smtp archive scanning as well normal files. It has built-in performance measures to ensure connectivity. Confidence and performance levels of protections are unique features to ensure the stability of devices. Packet capture and forensics options on the profiles assist the SOC team to analyze the incidents throughly. Smartevent gives the administrator high level security view for the enterprise. MDM global policy usage is a big plus. DNS trap feature is working perfectly. Interestingly DNS trap is inside the anti-virus module not in anti-blade module. Exception handling through the smartlog is awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a gray line between Antivirus and Antibot module, and you need to activate both antibot and antivirus for ultimate security. It supports static and heuristic analysis. However, behavioral analysis signatures consume significant CPU. There's a need for TX subscription for sandboxing. It would be best if you modified the default scanning option to increase security. Default settings don't have archive scanning and exclude specific types, whereas these file types can be dangerous. Granularity on signatures is low; you can't get detailed information on what the signature is doing. You should have a TP policy to set and run the modules.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Antivirus blade ensures the L7 network security is working smoothly throughout the enterprise. The virus database is updated regularly and has protection for the latest threats. Using the DNS trap functionality, we don^t need additional DNS security products or services within the antivirus blade, hence it's working as expected. We have enabled antivirus at the server and client GWS as well as at the perimeter level.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use antivirus with antibot and IPS module within the Threat Prevention. Three modules give you excellent coverage. Integrate with SIM solution. Use the indicators for 0day coverage. Try to integrate indicators through the SOAR for agility and increased prevention. Get scheduled daily reports through the smartevent and focus on each event.

Check point Antivirus

  • June 07, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its ability to protect against any Virus attack at the perimeter level.
Its default module available with NGFW and can be enabled to disable based on the requirement
Integration with Threatcloud intel, which provides updates on a regular interval. It's one of the best antivirus solutions and able to detect and block the most recent attack
its reduce time and reduces costs by leveraging by using existing security gateway for providing additional protection
What do you dislike about the product?
Its additional level of security is provided with NGFW firewall. Currently, I don't have any dislike for the product. Its only reduce effort of any antivirus solution deployed on endpoint by blocking file based on Hash or signature at perimeter level.
In today's scenario, no organization will be depending only on Anti Virus solution for protection as its outdated and required next generation of security solution
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It protects any malicious file at perimeter level so the file wont reach the endpoint based on Hash or signature which are updated on the regular interval based on threat intel feeds provided by checkpoint cloud

Moderate built-in antivirus

  • July 25, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that enabling the Check Point Antivirus almost doesn't affect the performance of our security gateways, thus provided the additional security almost without the penalty.
It is also really simple to configure, just a tick in the Smart Console, policy installation, and you are ready to go.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are not much configuration options available, just the options on which file types to scan, and whether to scan the archives or not.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Check Point HA Clusters are used for protection of our company's DataCenter located in Asia (Taiwan). This software blade, the Check Point Antivirus, is activated among the others and serves to scan the files traversing via the network as the email attachments or via HTTP/S. Such files are scanned on the presence of the known viruses and malware with the help of the built-in database. The database is updated as per schedule, for us it's 4 times a day. The software is quite simple, but still efficient - the antivirus scans are the basic security mechanism which should be implemented on all the levels. In my opinion, the Check Point Antivirus does its job just right.

Simple check for files traversing the network

  • June 17, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1. The Anti-Virus software blade is the part of the NextGeneration Threat Prevention license bundle.
2. The Anti-Virus is able to scan the files downloaded from the internet or traversing the network via Check Point Gateways/Clusters.
3. The Anti-Virus software blade is configured via the unified Threat Prevention policy in Smart Console (at least for R80.10 version we use).
4. There is almost no impact on the security Gateway/Cluster performance after the activation of the blade (especially if you don't scan nested archives).
5. The updates for the blade are downloaded every two hours.
6. As with the other Check Point blades, the events visibility and logging are outstanding.
What do you dislike about the product?
For Anti-Virus to scan the HTTPS traffic, the HTTPS Inspection should be enabled and configured, with Check Point trusted certificates propagated across all the user devices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use the Check Point NGFW Clusters/Gateways at the edges of the office network to protect the security boundaries of our organization. The Check Point Anti-Bot software blade if activated among the other security blades. Its purpose is to scan web (both HTTP and HTTPS) and email (SMTP) traffic on the presence of potentially malicious files and check them agains Check Point Threat Wiki. The blade is good to have to prevent the infection of the end user devices (mostly PCs and laptops) of our company employees.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The antivirus scans are the essential function of the modern firewall solutions, and Check Point provide that at the great level, bit it is still needed to have other solution in you organization to implement additional layers of security besides that.
