Checkpoint Integration

Overview

BrightCloud Web Filtering, Check Point Edition, extends the value propositions of web filtering for Check Point customers across the internet's Long Tail - not only the most popular websites, but those less popular websites that are visited by an enterprise's user population nonetheless. BrightCloud does this by providing access to the largest and most accurate URL database in the world through the hosted BrightCloud Service.

Features and Benefits

BrightCloud Web Filtering, Check Point Edition is a next generation web filtering service, and when deployed with Check Point Firewall-1, has compelling features and benefits:

Extends web filtering value propositions across the internet's Long Tail

Security, productivity, legal liability and conservation of IT resources are the key value propositions enabled through the product, and extended across the many millions of web sites not covered by the leading web filtering vendors.

Industry's Highest Quality URL Database

The BrightCloud Master Database is the largest and most accurate web filtering URL database in the world, as validated by West Coast Labs in their June 2007 competitive comparison with the market leaders.

Real Time Updates

BrightCloud provides real time updates for URLs which enables URLs which change categories- for example from benign to malicious because they've been hacked and are downloading malware- to be updated rapidly.

Rich Policy Implementation

Includes policy management for over 65 categories, including key security categories such as malware, phishing and other frauds, bot nets, spyware and adware, and others.

Key Features

Incorporates key features such as black\white lists, keyword blocking, custom categories, and traffic logging.

Broad International Language Support

The BrightCloud Master Database provides coverage of the major European and Asian languages and others, including German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, and Armenian, with others to be added.

Lower TCO

No additional hardware or software is required to take advantage of the BrightCloud Web Filtering product, reducing the total cost of ownership involved in integrating web filtering into a Check Point FireWall-1 solution.

OEMable Implementation

This product is a reference client implementation for OEMs- source code is available to facilitate fast and easy implementation of an integrated client on third party hardware or software security solutions- this makes it easy for third party vendors to incorporate web filtering into their broader security solutions.

Cross Platform Support

Integrations are available for both Windows and Linux.

The BrightCloud Web Filtering, Check Point Edition integrates with Check Point's Firewall-1 via the UFP interface. For additional information, visit:
