Check Point DDoS Protector
Tel Aviv, Israel
What it is
Check Point DDoS Protector is a perimeter defense device for mitigating network and application attacks in real time. Behavioral AI/ML algorithms provide automated protection against known and zero-day attacks, including DNS amplification, IoT botnet floods, SSL/TLS floods, and Layer 3–7 attacks. Check Point says real-time signatures can detect attacks and protect in less than 10 seconds. Deployment modes include inline, SPAN-port monitoring, copy-port monitoring, and out-of-path mitigation. Options include cloud-based, hardware-based, and hybrid deployments, plus a virtual appliance for software-defined data centers. A management dashboard supports viewing detection events, applying policies, and refining configurations. The X Series integrates with Check Point’s Hybrid Cloud DDoS Protection Service. Maximum programmable mitigation throughput is listed as up to 800 Gbps, depending on model, and the datasheet lists latency below 60 microseconds. The product is described as providing scalable protection for enterprise networks and cybersecurity operations, and supporting service providers with multitenant and multipolicy capabilities. Pricing is available on request, and Check Point offers a free demo through a request form.
