Check Point’s founder and CEO, Gil Shwed said, “As our societies increasingly rely on seamless always-on connectivity, criminals and nation-state threat actors have even more opportunities to influence the outcomes of political events, or cause massive disruption and damage that puts thousands of lives at risk. Attacks are constantly increasing: over the past year, our ThreatCloud Managed Security Service blocked nearly 90 billion compromise attempts per day – compared with six billion daily searches on Google.
“We can no longer defend ourselves using traditional detection-based security models: by the time we detect the threat, the damage has already been done. We need to automatically block these advanced new Gen V attacks and prevent them disrupting the systems we rely on, using Gen V security that combines real-time threat prevention, shared intelligence and advanced protections across all networks, cloud and mobile deployments,” Shwed continued.
