SAN ANTONIO, Aug. 17, 2023 /CNW/ -- Frost & Sullivan recently researched the next-generation firewall (NGFW) industry and, based on its analysis, recognizes Check Point Software Technologies with the 2023 Global Company of the Year Award. Check Point delivers industry-leading firewall security to prevent online threats through its innovative products and services, serving companies across all industry verticals and business sizes. With the support of its global distribution channel of thousands of resellers, OEMs, managed service providers (MSPs), and distributors, the cybersecurity vendor has grown steadily to become a leading NGFW provider with over 100,000 customers in 88 countries. Its international customer support network of over 3,500 security experts addresses ever-evolving customer needs and stays on top of emerging challenges.

Check Point delivers a unified customer experience through an integrated product portfolio that spans cloud, network, endpoint, mobile, remote access, software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), and Internet of Things (IoT) environments. It recognized early the need to build a holistic security solution to protect its customers during digital transformation. With continued enhancements to its cybersecurity product line, Check Point has experienced double-digit growth rates and solidified its position as one of the leading security vendors globally. Integrating its strategic acquisitions into its product stack, it provides key security capabilities, including:

• Cloud security posture management (CSPM)

Martin Naydenov, senior industry analyst at Frost & Sullivan, observed, "Check Point recognized early on the emerging challenges organizations face and expanded its product offering to provide flexible solutions that align with its customers' goals, including cloud migration, remote workforce adoption, and proactive response to supply chain threats."

Check Point's broad suite of security solutions leverage artificial intelligence (AI) in its ThreatCloud AI to prevent data breaches and detect attempted attacks. Check Point's solutions provide customers with a centralized fabric that correlates events from multiple environments via a single pane of glass. Its Horizon Infinity unified management delivers greater visibility and analytics capabilities, empowering organizations to set consistent policies across all their security domains to minimize attack surfaces and manage risk in the modern threat landscape.

"Check Point's sophisticated AI engines with threat intelligence, sandboxing, and automation capabilities across its security offerings quickly identify and block the most advanced attacks and add new capabilities. It mitigates zero-day exploits while minimizing false positives, keeping organizations safe and productive," added Naydenov.
