Check Point Introduces Big Security for Small Businesses
May 2013 by Marc Jacob
Check Point has launched its new 600 Appliances, delivering powerful security to protect small businesses against the latest cyber attacks, including viruses, spam, malicious Websites, among others. The 600 Appliances provide an affordable, all-in-one security solution with market leading performance of 1.5 Gbps of firewall throughput, starting at $399.
Cyber security is a growing challenge for small businesses. According to a new Verizon report, of the 621 confirmed data breaches studied, close to half occurred at companies with fewer than 1,000 employees, including 193 incidents at entities with fewer than 100 workers. Increasingly, attackers are targeting smaller businesses as they lack the more sophisticated security that larger businesses have.
Check Point’s 600 Appliances provide comprehensive security to ensure small business employees and data are protected at all times. The 600 Appliances come pre-loaded with enterprise-class capabilities, including firewall, VPN, intrusion prevention (IPS), anti-virus, anti-spam, application control, and URL filtering. The 600 Appliances also run the same industry-leading next-generation firewall and threat prevention capabilities found on Check Point products used by all of the Fortune 100 companies.
The 600 appliances are easy to set up and manage even by non-IT professionals. Flexible Web-based management options are offered through a simple and intuitive user interface. And with security policies pre-defined, small businesses can get their security up and running in a matter of minutes.
Key Features of the Check Point 600 Appliances:
• Affordable enterprise-grade security, starting at $399
• One device for Internet access, network connectivity, and security
• Powerful Firewall, IPS, Next-Generation Firewall, and Threat Prevention capabilities
• Simple and intuitive Web-based management for small businesses
• Multiple wireless access networks, enabling guest access to the Internet while limiting access to the corporate network
The Check Point 600 Appliances are suitable for small offices of up to 100 employees and come in three models (620, 640, and 680), starting at $399. Each appliance model can be equipped with Wi-Fi as an option.
