Check Point InterSpect 210 Datasheet

InterSpect
Internal intrusion prevention and
network access control
YOUR CHALLENGE
To date, IT security organizations have focused on the network perimeter.
However, many of today's attacks are introduced from inside the network.
Laptops, PDAs, and other devices travel into and out of the network daily,
making it possible for legitimate users to infect the network or unwittingly grant
attackers access to the network via a Trojan horse or other spyware.
Many worms have propagated inside the network after being introduced by
an internal source. Once a single network device has been infected, the entire
network can be compromised very quickly, resulting in costs related to system
downtime, lost productivity, and clean up and recovery of IT systems. With such
costly threats becoming increasingly common, organizations have come to
realize that they must improve their internal security controls to provide better
defenses against worms, unauthorized access threats, and other attacks within
their internal networks.
OUR SOLUTION
Check Point InterSpect™ is an internal security gateway that blocks attacks
such as worms, denial of service (DOS), and email-borne malware that are intro-
duced inside the network. InterSpect combines intelligent intrusion prevention,
network zone segmentation, and host quarantine capabilities built specifically
for unique internal network requirements to deliver the most comprehensive
internal security solution available. Specifically, InterSpect provides:
• Intelligent intrusion prevention—proactive protection against today's evolving
threats, including worms and Day Zero attacks
• Network zone segmentation—segmentation of the internal network into
organizational security zones, each with its own security policy
• Quarantining of suspicious computers—prevention of unsecured computers
from accessing the network
• LAN protocol protection—the deepest and most comprehensive support for
Microsoft, Citrix ICA, and other LAN protocols
InterSpect is designed for flexible and nondisruptive deployment into existing
network environments.
