Integrated Appliance Solutions (IAS)

Organizations start by defining what type of security they need from Check Point solutions as well as a desired level of performance. Organizations can choose from options such as VPN-1^® UTM, VPN-1 Power, and the VPN-1 Power VSX virtualized security services platform, as well as Provider-1^® for management of large deployments with separate security domains.

Check Point then integrates the software onto a server or Software Blade-based chassis to provide a comprehensive solution that includes direct technical support from Check Point.

With Integrated Appliance Solutions, you can take advantage of the benefits of customization and standardization.  You work with Check Point to tailor Check Point applications and hardware components and then finalize them into a standard corporate security platform.

Because Integrated Appliance Solutions are built around the latest hardware innovations such as multi-core processors, you can deploy to a higher level of security.  Organizations can activate strict intrusion prevention policies with multi-gigabit performance levels. And, as Check Point updates its software, expect to see performance improve without requiring hardware upgrades.

Check Point provides total support for the Integrated Appliance Solutions, including three levels of global advance replacement determined by support level and location. Update Services, an optional subscription, provides the latest updates for integrated intrusion prevention capabilities, delivering threat mitigation that is always up-to-date.
