Description

Web access is a major vector for cyberattacks targeting businesses. Check Point's URL Filtering feature manages access to millions of websites based on categories, users, groups, and machines, safeguarding users from harmful sites while facilitating secure Internet usage. Utilizing UserCheck technology, it provides real-time education on web usage policies, enhancing user awareness. This protection is further bolstered by cloud-based categorization and UserCheck capabilities, which can be activated on any Check Point security gateway, ultimately lowering the total cost of ownership. It also offers comprehensive security across all web-related activities by seamlessly integrating full application control. Security teams need the ability to identify, secure, and monitor every device connected to the network at all times, ensuring a robust defense. Check Point solutions equip organizations with the capability to block compromised devices from accessing sensitive corporate data and resources, which includes not only employees' mobile devices and workstations but also IoT devices and systems used in industrial control. Consequently, maintaining an organized and secure network environment becomes more achievable.
