Check Point Software Revolutionizes Remote Working Security for Enterprises with Harmony
24 February 2021 - 3:00AM
Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), a
leading provider of cybersecurity solutions globally, has today
launched Check Point Harmony, the first unified solution to enable
secure connectivity to any resource anywhere and give total
endpoint protection for users on any device. Harmony secures both
corporate and BYOD devices, and internet connections from known and
zero-day attacks, while giving Zero-Trust access to business
applications in a single, easy to manage solution.
Securing the new ‘work from anywhere’ environment is a leading
priority for enterprises, as 81% have adopted mass remote working,
and 74% plan to do so permanently. However, they have serious
concerns about securing remote users: 52% stated their top concern
was securing staff endpoints, and 47% said stopping social
engineering attacks, yet just 29% deploy endpoint protections on
employees’ home PCs.
Check Point Harmony addresses these challenges, unifying
endpoint, browser, email and remote access security components to
protect all user devices and the enterprise networks they connect
to against known and unknown threats. Harmony integrates key
security capabilities in a single solution to deliver:
- Complete web security: As a core component of
Harmony, the new Harmony Browse uniquely provides secure, fast and
private web browsing by inspecting all SSL traffic directly on the
endpoint without adding latency or re-routing traffic through a
secure web service. Harmony Browse blocks zero-day malware
downloads, access to phishing websites, and prevents reuse of
corporate passwords. It also keeps users’ browsing history private,
ensuring compliance with data privacy regulations. Harmony Browse
is easily deployed as a nano-agent in users’ browsers, and can be
combined with any secure web gateway or endpoint security solution
to enhance overall protection.
- Secure remote access from any device,
anywhere: Harmony Connect securely connects any user or
branch to any resource, supporting clientless Zero Trust Network
Access from any browser.
- Protects users’ email and productivity apps:
Harmony Email & Office secures users’ email clients and, gives
complete protection for Microsoft Office 365, Exchange, Google G
Suite and more.
- Total endpoint and device security: Harmony
Endpoint protects users’ PCs from ransomware, phishing, and
malware, and minimizes breach impact with autonomous detection and
response capability. Harmony Mobile secures employees’ mobile
devices against malicious apps and network or OS attacks.
“In the past year, organizations have made significant IT
infrastructure changes to enable mass remote working, and they will
continue to do so,” says Michael Suby, Research VP at IDC. “Our
forecasts show that by 2024, mobile workers will account for nearly
60% of the total U.S. workforce. These accelerated changes open up
security gaps and dramatically expand organizations’ attack
surface, especially on employees’ own devices and PCs and remote
connections to corporate applications.”
“The move to mass remote working created security gaps in
organizations’ security infrastructures that cannot easily be
addressed with multiple different point products from several
different security vendors,” said Rafi Kretchmer, VP Product
Marketing at Check Point Software. “Harmony closes these gaps with
unified, multi-layered security and prevention technologies,
blocking against all exploit techniques across all attack vectors.
This protects the enterprise’s network end to end, ensuring
uncompromised security for the new ‘work from anywhere’ enterprise
environment, with easy deployment and single-console
management.”
Check Point Harmony is easy to deploy with a simple per-user
pricing model and is managed via a cloud service, enabling
user-centric security policies to be applied across organizations’
environments.
