Class overview
Check Point CloudGuard Network Security is a cloud-native security gateway that delivers industry-leading advanced threat prevention together with automated and elastic cloud network security, automated at the speed of DevOps and managed by unified security management over the widest range of public, private, and hybrid clouds.
Cloud network security solutions play a crucial role in addressing a fundamental security gap within the cloud infrastructure. By bridging this gap, these solutions empower businesses to maintain an equivalent level of security monitoring and threat prevention as they do in their on-premises environment, even with the dissolution of the traditional network perimeter. This becomes imperative for organizations to fulfill their obligations under the cloud-shared responsibility model, safeguard corporate cybersecurity, and maintain regulatory compliance.
