Check Point Excels in Security Effectiveness
Check Point have achieved the highest security effectiveness score in the 2019 NSS Labs Breach Prevention Systems (BPS) group test. Check Point’s Next Generation Threat Prevention Appliances and Advanced Endpoint Security achieved a 100% block rate and earned a ‘Recommended’ rating.
The highlights from the test include:
- 98.4% overall security effectiveness
- 100% block rate
- 100% malware prevention, email and web
- 100% exploit resistance
- 0% false positives
Why does the BPS group test matter?
The NSS Labs Breach prevention Systems group test represents the first published comparison of technology suites. Their testing included multiple security vendors with each vendor replicating a ‘breach prevention posture’ for customers, this then allows NSS Labs to assess the effectiveness of each solution independently. The purpose of this test was to block all attacks across various vectors, like network and endpoint, using all available security tools. Check Point used its unique, real-time prevention solutions such as Sandblast Network, Sandblast Agent, threat extraction, anti-bot and more.
