Check Point meets all these needs as GigaOm acknowledged the company for its wide partner network that supports supply and deployment.

Furthermore, Check Point was acknowledged for the following strengths highlighted in GigaOm’s evaluation:

■ Performance and throughput: New Quantum Force series enhances performance, adding more ports, and reducing power consumption by 50%. Additionally, the Maestro hyperscale solution can support up to 1,000 Gbps, allowing security to scale with organizational growth

■ Threat analytics: Check Point’s security tools connect to its ThreatCloud AI, which offers automated threat detection and response and 50+ AI features.
