Why Check Point CloudGuard WAF Stops More Zero-Day Threats

• Attackers exploit unknown vulnerabilities before most security solutions can detect them. • Legacy WAFs depend on signatures – an approach that is too slow and too reactive. • APIs & apps are now the #1 attack vector.

The Problem

Zero-Day Threats Move Fast

84% 84% of companies faced an API-related breach in 2025 (Forbes)

Built to PREVENT, Not Just Detect CloudGuard WAF Is Built Different

ThreatCloud AI Prevention • Learns app behavior to detect anomalies – no signature needed • Automatically – and immediately – stops unknown threats like Text4Shell,

Log4Shell, MOVEit

Behavioral ML Engine • Dual AI models (offline + real-time) analyze context • Catches obfuscated, mutated attacks traditional WAFs miss

Prevention in Action

• Highest Detection Rate of 99.3% and the Lowest False Positive Rate of 0.81% (2025 WAF Comparison Project)

• Protected customers from MOVEit & Log4Shell before patch release

Cloud-Native, Fully Managed  CloudGuard WAF-as-a-Service (WAFaaS) • Up and running in <5 minutes • No manual tuning, no rule updates • Protects APIs, apps, and workloads across cloud & hybrid environments

Need CloudGuard Delivers

Stop zero-days early AI/ML + ThreatCloud = real-time prevention

Reduce manual effort Auto-tuning and low false positives

Protect APIs & apps API schema validation + business logic security

Scale securely SaaS, hybrid, cloud-native deployment
