Protect your Azure connections & SaaS apps across the globe

With over 22 billion records exposed to data breaches in 2020 (Tenable), ensuring a robust security policy has never been more important. The increase in cloud migrations and deployments has only exacerbated this, racing ahead of security teams’ abilities to defend against them.

“Over 80% of organisations say their traditional security solutions either don’t work at all, or only provide limited functions in cloud environments—creating a great opportunity for threat actors targeting the cloud. To close these security gaps, enterprises need to get holistic visibility across all their public cloud environments, and deploy unified, automated cloud-native protections” – Tsion Gonen, Head of Cloud Product Line, Check Point.

Part of the problem can be that customers blindly trust cloud providers and trust their security, however the cloud is not a magical place. Despite its almost shielded perception, it is eventually an infrastructure, code that can have vulnerabilities and need to be protected.

As enterprises become more distributed, organisations need flexible solutions that deliver secure and predictable application performance across a global footprint. Companies need to securely connect their branch offices to the Internet and SaaS cloud applications. In addition, the increase in remote workers caused by the pandemic makes the need to connect securely to both cloud and data centre applications from anywhere around the globe even more important.
