Check Point Cloud WAF - Check Point Software

Präventionsorientierte Web-, GenAI-App- und API-Sicherheit

Check Point WAF protects your applications and APIs with a unified, AI-driven security platform – 100% Effectiveness, 0% False Positives

Unified Security for Web, GenAI Apps & APIs

Check Point WAF is a cloud-native Web, GenAI & API security solution that provides precise threat prevention using contextual AI to protect your Apps against known and unknown threats, without relying on signatures.

PRÄVENTIVER SCHUTZ

Protect Web, GenAI Apps & APIs: Prevent advanced threats including OWASP Top-10 and zero-day attacks with ML-based security without signature updates (e.g., blocked Log4Shell and Spring4Shell without any updates).

Präzise Erkennung

Reduce Operational Overheads: Continuously adapts to evolving threats and delivers accurate detection with minimal false positives, eliminating the fine-tuning and exception handling required by traditional WAFs.

Cloudnatives Konzept

CI/CD-friendly deployment and automation: from installation to upgrades, to configuration – using declarative infra-as-code APIs, and seamless DevOps integration.

A Unique Approach to Web & API Protection

Check Point WAF eliminates manual rules and signature updates with real-time AI protection, blocking both known and unknown threats, while reducing operational overhead.

Incoming HTTP requests are analyzed using two AI engines:

Attack-Indicator AI Engine (Supervised model)
Context Analysis AI Engine (Unsupervised Model)

Attack-Indicator AI Engine

Trained on millions of malicious and legitimate requests, Check Point WAF identifies subtle threat signatures and advanced attack variants, enabling near-perfect detection of zero-day threats and blocking nearly 100% of attacks.

Context Analysis AI Engine

Check Point WAF continuously learns from real-time traffic patterns within the protected environment and adapts to each application’s unique behavior, accurately detecting anomalies and blocking only malicious activity reducing false positives to nearly zero.

What sets Check Point WAF apart

Powerful AI-Based WAF, GenAI & API Security

Preemptive Zero-Day Protection – Detect and block unknown and zero-day attacks (e.g., Log4Shell, Spring4Shell) before signatures even exist.
No Rule Maintenance – Eliminate the manual effort of tuning rules and signatures.
Near-Zero False Positives – Minimize operational overhead with contextual detection that adapts over time.

Built-In GenAI Security

Dual-Layer ML Security – Core of our approach is dual-layer machine learning architecture that delivers real-time prevention for GenAI apps & APIs with minimal tuning and maximum adaptability, ensuring the highest level of security.
Supervised ML Layer – Powered by Lakera, this layer brings specialized engines to block prompt injection, stop data leaks, filter harmful content, and prevent AI misuse delivering security at every stage of interaction. With support for 100+ languages.
Unsupervised ML Layer – Check Point WAF adds its own contextual refinement layer, with four engines that continuously learn and adapt with each customer’s unique environment, it keeps false positives near zero while enhancing accuracy and protection in real time.

Built-In API Security

API Discovery + Tuning Suggestions – automatically detect all APIs including shadow and zombie endpoints by analyzing URIs, headers, and full body payloads with extreme precision.
Monitor API Changes – Time-stamped snapshots capture your API and sensitive data states, enabling detection of drifts or unauthorized changes.
Real-Time API Protection with Schema Validation & Enforcement Automatically blocks requests that don’t match expected schemas, giving security teams instant visibility and stops misuse before it starts.

Advanced File Security

Full Content Scanning – Every uploaded file is scanned and verified using a global threat intelligence cloud.
Zero-Day File Threat Detection – Stop embedded malware and malicious content before it hits the application layer.
Policy-Based Controls- Easily block, quarantine, or allow files based on configurable risk thresholds.

Advance DDoS Protection

Global Presence for Instant Mitigation– Check Point WAF-as-a-Service uses global PoPs to filter traffic at the edge, blocking attacks near their source and improving availability and latency for legitimate users.
Multi-Layered Defense Architecture – provides protection across OSI layers, blocking L3/4 attacks like SYN and UDP floods, and L7 threats like HTTP floods, API abuse, and DNS DDoS with behavior-based analysis.
24/7 DDoS Response Team – Our global team monitors and responds to threats in real time, providing expert analysis, custom mitigation, and support to ensure uninterrupted service.
Flexible Control & Easy Integration – Built-in APIs and DevOps compatibility enable efficient DDoS policy management across CI/CD.
