Cloud Firewall, part of the Hybrid Mesh Security platform, provides advanced threat prevention and automated cloud
network security through a virtual security gateway, with unified security management across all your multi-cloud and
on-premises environments.
For public clouds, Cloud Firewall provides automated and elastic public cloud network security to keep assets and
data protected while staying aligned to the dynamic needs of public cloud environments.
For private clouds, Cloud Firewall delivers dynamic security within virtual datacenters to prevent the lateral spread of
threats while consolidating visibility & management across physical & virtual networks.
Performance: Cloud Firewall (R81.20) – Google Cloud
Notes:
• Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) throughput is measured with FW, IPS, Application Control features enabled
(see table 2 below), using Check Point Enterprise testing conditions.
• Next Generation Threat Prevention (NGTP) throughput is measured with FW, IPS, Application Control, URL
Filter, Anti-Virus, Anti-Bot features enabled (see table below), using Check Point Enterprise testing conditions.
• Testing conducted on Intel® Xeon® Gold 6209U CPU @ 2.10GHz, Testing RAM size was 8GB, Network
Interface: Intel Ethernet X710 for 10GbE SFP+
It is recommended to run additional testing within your environment to ensure your performance requirements are met. Your performance may vary depending on underlying cloud vendor infrastructure performance.
