Check Point Identity and Trust

Identity intelligence for real-time Zero Trust enforcement

As organizations shift to hybrid environments and cloud-first identity providers, identity has become the primary control point for security decisions. Yet most security architectures still treat identity as fragmented, static, or tied to individual enforcement points. Check Point Identity and Trust modernizes this approach by delivering a centralized, cloud-native identity layer that continuously feeds real-time user and device context into security policy enforcement across the environment.

The Challenge: Identity is fragmented, static, and disconnected from enforcement

Security teams struggle to enforce consistent, identity-based policies across modern environments:
- Identity is fragmented across on-prem directories, endpoints, and identity providers, with no unified layer across hybrid environments (on-prem, cloud, remote, SASE).
- Security policies are often disconnected from real-time identity and device context, including user group changes, device posture, and endpoint risk updates.
- Identity enforcement is inconsistent across distributed environments, creating visibility gaps and fragmented policy decisions.

The result: security gaps, operational complexity, and weaker Zero Trust enforcement.

A unified identity layer for policy enforcement

AIOps is the intelligent operations engine within Check Point Events, delivering real-time visibility, anomaly detection, contextual insights, and proactive alerts across security gateways and servers. This solution monitors infrastructure health, including key KPIs like CPU and memory utilization. Built for proactive defense, Identity and Trust delivers enriched identity context to Check Point Hybrid Mesh Firewalls across cloud, on-prem, and remote environments. Organizations simply define identity once in the cloud and apply it across their hybrid mesh environments.

At its core, the solution:

Continuously maps users to devices, IPs, groups, and sessions in real time.
Extends identity-based enforcement beyond static authentication to include dynamic trust signals from Check Point products and endpoint platforms (e.g., Microsoft Defender, Microsoft Intune, CrowdStrike Falcon) and identity providers (e.g., Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Active Directory).
Feeds the enriched identity context into policy decisions across Check Point Firewalls.

Single control pane

Identity and Trust consolidates directories, endpoint signals, security integrations, and enforcement points into a single, unified interface, eliminating silos and providing a single source of truth for identity across the environment. AIOps helps security and operations teams identify problems before they escalate - and resolve them faster with AI-driven guidance. The result: 80% less downtime, 40% fewer support tickets, and faster time to resolution.

Real-time identity visibility and response

Identity and Trust provides real-time visibility into active user sessions across the environment, enabling security teams to monitor activity, correlate identity and device context, and take immediate action when risk is detected.

Identity logs and investigation

Identity and Trust provides a unified log view of identity events across the environment, enabling security teams to filter by source and severity, and quickly investigate user and device behavior.

Check Point AI-powered Security Management

Identity and Trust is part of Check Point's AI-powered Network Security Management platform, which combines centralized identity intelligence with AI-driven policy optimization, simplified compliance, cross-product orchestration, and proactive operational visibility. Together, these capabilities help organizations consistently strengthen Zero Trust enforcement, reduce operational complexity, and secure hybrid environments.
