See How Check Point Endpoint Security Stacks Up Against Symantec SES
| Feature | Check Point Endpoint Security | Symantec SES |
|---|---|---|
| BUILT-TO-PREVENT | Multi-Layered Homogeneous Protection Check Point combines signature-based protection and behavioral machine-learning engines to protect against known & unknown threats | Disparate Protection Symantec requires additional disparate and different products: 1. Endpoint, WSS(for URLF, Phishing) & Full-Disk Encryption. Each has different UI and policy. |
| WEB, FRAUD & PREEMPTIVE PROTECTION | Prevent unsafe web usage Check Point Workspace Security protects users from phishing attacks, unsafe URLs and delivers sanitized version of documents (CDR) by removing exploitable content. | Missing Key Protections Symantec SES does not support phishing & CnC protection. URLF & Phishing are in a separated product (WSS) and CDR (content disarm & reconstruction) is basic as it is based on reputation |
| RANSOMWARE PROTECTION | Full Protection | Partial Protection Lacks intelligent backups / data restoration capability (disaster recovery). Compromised host data cannot be restored |
| COMMAND & CONTROL ATTACKS | Protected Check Point’s Check Point Endpoint Security blocks communication to bot servers (C&C) resulting in data exfiltration. | None Symantec does not provide such protection |
| THREAT VISIBILITY – MITRE ENGINUITY ATT&CK EVALUATION | Top Rating MITRE 2022 94.5% Technique coverage, MITRE 2021 91.3% | Low Rating MITRE 2022 – 79.8% Analytic coverage, MITRE 2021 – 76.15% |
| MANAGEMENT | Ease of Use Unified: 1 single menu Check Point Endpoint Security Policy is Unified – policy configuration in 1 single menu | Complex 3x Separated Policies, FDE: separate server, separate MGMT and additional agent |
VALUE FOR MONEY
Comprehensive Endpoint Protection Single Bundle for it all
Check Point Endpoint Security offers all-in-one complete solution, including: Endpoint protection(EPP), EDR, URLF & phishing protection & FDE + media encryption.
Pay More, Get Less Multiple subscriptions
Symantec full protection requires purchasing additional products on-top of the endpoint, for additional cost. That results multiple MGMT consoles and separate policies. That adds to complexity, additional man labor, higher TCO and it is all prone to errors (security wise).
