Features of Check Point Nex-Gen Firewall
-
Next-generation firewall that addresses a wide variety of threats
Check Point Nex-Gen Firewall comes with pre-packaged security capabilities called Software Blade that address a wide variety of threats, allowing customers to select the capabilities that meet their security requirements.
Compared with previous models, threat prevention throughput has more than doubled. In addition to conventional firewall functionality, AI-powered security capabilities provide perimeter protection against the latest threats.

Ultra-high throughput with high-speed 40/100G modules equipped with ASICs
The expansion slots on Check Point Nex-Gen Firewall support 8-port 10G SFP and 4-port 10/25G SFP28 expansion NICs, as well as ASIC-based 40/100G QSFP SmartNIC modules co-developed with NVIDIA..
Check Point’s proprietary acceleration technology, SecureXL, improves performance by processing subsequent packets in previously permitted traffic flows on a separate CPU within the appliance. By offloading this processing to the CPU built into the ASIC, Check Point Nex-Gen Firewall delivers a significant increase in firewall throughput.

Latest Hardware and High Scalability
Check Point Nex-Gen Firewall is equipped with the latest CPUs and enterprise SSDs across all series, with redundant power supply options also available. Its modular components make it easy to add the required accessories.
Configuration examples
Configuration examples 1
Check Point Nex-Gen Firewall includes a bundled management license, allowing a redundant configuration without requiring a separate management server or additional licenses. Because targeted cyberattack protection capabilities are consolidated into a single appliance, both inbound and outbound protection can be implemented without deploying multiple devices.
Configuration example 2
Deploying Check Point SandBlast TE Appliance, which provides sandboxing and email content disarm and reconstruction, together with Check Point Nex-Gen Firewall enables advanced security protection. Adding Smart-1, a dedicated security management appliance, enables centralized management and monitoring of security gateways. Smart-1 includes event analysis and reporting capabilities as standard, making it easy to understand the current security status and trends.
