Global cybersecurity solutions company Check Point Software Technologies has extended the capabilities of its Quantum Hybrid Data Centre Security solution.
The new Check Point R81.10 software, Check Point Quantum Maestro 175 and Check Point Quantum Smart-1 Security Management appliances enable businesses to have greater flexibility to securely move workloads between the data centre and cloud on demand.
According to the company, the new features will help deliver advanced protection for complex hybrid data centres with automated operations and an ultra-scalable platform.
“Security threats have become more frequent and sophisticated, so automated threat prevention and security policy orchestration will be key to keeping up with the expanding threat landscape,” said Itai Greenberg, VP, product management, Check Point Software Technologies.
“Check Point’s Hybrid Data Centre security solution increases enterprises performance and scalability without complexity. The Quantum family of products protects organisation’s data centres from sophisticated attacks by isolating threats with zero trust micro segmentation, providing fully automated operations with dynamic and unified policy management, and by enabling remote users to securely connect to the cloud.”
Enterprises can now enable applications and workloads to be delivered at the edge with better response times at lower costs, said the firm.
