Its security solutions help protect company networks, computers, cloud systems, and sensitive information. Businesses can use its tools to control who accesses their systems, block suspicious activity, and reduce the risk of data theft. Rather than relying on a single layer of protection, Check Point offers different security products that work across several parts of an organisation's IT environment. Its solutions are used by IT teams, security professionals, small businesses, and large enterprises that need to keep their systems safe. Administrators can manage security rules, review alerts, investigate suspicious activity, and respond to potential attacks. The main benefit is having better control over company security and a clearer view of possible risks. The exact features available depend on the Check Point products and licences a busin

Corelight is an Open Network Detection and Response (NDR) platform created by the original developers of Zeek (formerly Bro). Corelight sensors passively monitor physical and cloud network traffic, transforming raw, high-volume network packets into compact, highly structured security logs that accelerate incident response investigations by up to 20x. By parsing over 400 network protocol attributes without capturing cumbersome PCAP payloads, Corelight drastically reduces SIEM ingestion and storage costs. It includes embedded Suricata signature scanning, encrypted traffic analysis for C2 beacons and unauthorized SSH channels, and Smart PCAP technology for selective packet retrieval.
