Check Point Teams with Microsoft Intune to Secure Enterprise Mobility
July 19 2017 - 9:00AM
Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:CHKP) today
announced its product integration of Check Point SandBlast Mobile
with Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) to secure
mobile devices in the enterprise.
Cyberattacks have evolved beyond the enterprise perimeter,
breaching mobile environments; yet only one percent of enterprises
have deployed mobile security technologies. The integration of
Check Point SandBlast Mobile, the market-leading mobile threat
defense (MTD) solution, with Microsoft’s Intune enterprise mobility
management (EMM) platform, provides businesses with a comprehensive
approach to manage mobile devices and protect against advanced
mobile attacks.
The integration with Microsoft Intune and SandBlast Mobile
simplifies how customers can apply SandBlast Mobile’s threat
intelligence, as an additional input into Intune’s device
compliance settings. Once a threat is detected, SandBlast Mobile
immediately applies on-device protections and notifies Intune to
enforce device status changes and conditional access controls to
ensure that company data stays protected until the threat is
remediated.
“Mobile threat defense is a critical part of our strategy to
provide customers with the best proactive prevention available with
Check Point Infinity security architecture,” said Michael Shaulov,
Head of Products, Mobile and Cloud Security, Check Point. “Recent
third-party validation highlights the effectiveness of implementing
SandBlast Mobile to find and prevent threats, and the integration
with Microsoft Intune, which manages mobile devices and ensures
their compliance, will allow us to serve our customers further in
our goal to continue to improve mobile security.”
Andrew Conway, General Manager for Enterprise Mobility +
Security at Microsoft Corp. added, “As attacks continue to become
more sophisticated, many customers are looking at how mobile threat
defense solutions, such as Check Point, can help them thwart
threats on mobile devices. The integration between Check Point and
Microsoft Intune will help secure mobile devices from advanced
cyber threats, and help ensure that only compliant devices have
access to company resources.”
Check Point SandBlast Mobile’s integration with Microsoft Intune
continues the companies’ mutual efforts to secure enterprise
infrastructure – from cloud to mobile. This includes previous joint
work on Check Point vSec Cloud Security for Microsoft Azure.
AvailabilityCheck Point SandBlast Mobile’s
integration with Microsoft EMS is now generally available.
