Check Point (CHKP) Expands CloudGuard Platform With New Solution
Read MoreHide Full Article
Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (CHKP - Free Report) recently bolstered its unified Cloud Native Security Platform with the new Check Point CloudGuard Workload Protection solution. This cloud workload security solution is fully automated and provides the necessary tools for security teams to automate end-to-end security across applications, Application Programing Interfaces (APIs) and microservices through a single interface.
With the ongoing work-from-anywhere wave induced by the COVID-19 pandemic, organizations are having to rapidly adapt to the current operational change and empower their remote workers with the necessary support. This also requires quick and strong security across enterprise networks to safeguard the data and other confidential information of organizations from any vulnerability due to the large-scale shift in the work environment.
Simultaneously, cloud migration is rapidly taking place across industries, calling for more advanced cloud security solutions.
These concurrent situations are leading security teams to cater to multiple security requirements at once. Check Point also points out a recent survey, which has inferred that 68% of respondent enterprises say that misconfiguration of cloud assets is one of the biggest contributors to cloud security threats.
