The bad guys innovate rapidly. To stay ahead of threats, you need a modern security infrastructure designed for today’s dynamic networks. Check Point’s Software Defined Protection (SDP) is a leap forward in security architecture, providing collaborative threat intelligence with a modular, agile infrastructure that most importantly, is secure. Essentially, SDP is the least complex way of looking at security and programming it to protect your network. It builds on Information Security concepts, while taking into account the realities of today’s complex and distributed networks that increasingly lack traditional boundaries.
MANAGEMENT LAYER
Integrates security with business processes
CONTROL LAYER
Delivers real-time protections to the enforcement points
ENFORCEMENT LAYER
Inspects traffic and enforces protections in well-defined segments
The Software Defined Protection (SDP) Management Layer provides security administrators with real-time visualization of security incidents. With this information they can enhance their incident response and overall insight into the network security posture. Because it is open and modular, the Management Layer provides administrators with a great deal of flexibility in definition and delegation of security
At the core of the Software Defined Protection (SDP) architecture, the Control Layer generates software-defined protections that adapt rapidly in the face of new threats and changing network configurations. It develops these protections using advanced threat intelligence and then deploys precision policy updates using the enforcement points created by the Enforcement Layer.
The Enforcement Layer segments the network, grouping together elements that share the same policy and protection characteristics. Segmentation allows for modular protection, preventing attacks from proliferating within the network and establishing trusted channels in which authorized traffic can flow unimpeded.
