SAN CARLOS, Calif., April 20, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:CHKP), today introduced Check Point Infinity, a revolutionary cyber security architecture designed to meet the critical security needs of enterprise organizations. Check Point Infinity is the first consolidated security across networks, cloud, and mobile, providing unparalleled threat prevention to keep customers protected against the growing number of cyber-attacks.

“Check Point Infinity is the culmination of our overarching vision to build a security architecture that unifies the best security, the best intelligence and the best management that we can offer across networks, cloud and mobile,” says Gabi Reish, VP product management, Check Point. “This architecture is designed to ensure organizations are prepared to handle the changing dynamics of the IT future.

3) Consolidated System: a single management, modular policy management & integrated threat visibility to efficiently centralize security through a single pane of glass

Check Point Infinity empowers businesses to take control of their security and to protect and manage their entire IT operation as single cohesive architecture for the benefit of their business operations and their customers.
