Check Point Security Acceleration Module

Ideal for real-time transaction environments such as financial trading, VoIP communications, and high-performance data centers, the acceleration module enables sub-5µs latency for firewall performance. Securing latency-sensitive environments no longer has to be a trade-off decision between security and performance.

The Security Acceleration Module improves performance and extends security in high-performance network environments.

The Security Acceleration Module features Check Point's innovative, purpose-built SecurityCore^™ technology that uses parallel and security processing power to accelerate security performance. With 108 security cores, security processing of network traffic can be offloaded from the general purpose appliance CPU to the Security Acceleration Module. Leveraging SecurityCore technology, the Security Acceleration Module enables customers to scale and run many security functions in highly demanding and low-latency network environments with improved overall system performance.

With the improved performance brought on by the acceleration module, businesses can confidently implement the desired security measures for their high-performance, latency-sensitive network environments. Customers of the Check Point 21400 Appliance with the Security Acceleration Module will enjoy up to 110 Gbps of firewall throughput with sub 5µs latency, 37 Gbps of VPN throughput and 2,900 SecurityPower^™ Units (SPUs) of security processing power. Customers also benefit from a 3X session rate boost to a maximum of 300,000 connections per second.

Big performance does not mean big iron. The Security Acceleration Module is delivered in the Check Point 21400 Appliance which delivers industry-leading system performance in a compact, space-saving 2U rack-mount chassis. This not only reduces the initial CapEx investment, it also helps to cut down the ongoing support cost and its total cost of ownership (TCO). The Check Point 21400 with the acceleration module is a smart investment to protect some of your most valuable business advantages – information and speed.
