ESG Labs Validation Report: Advanced Security with CloudGuard IaaS

A few months back we had ESG (Enterprise Strategy Group) come to our labs in San Carlos to validate our CloudGuard IaaS core value propositions around adaptive security, agile and automated deployments as well as unified visibility and control. They leveraged our hybrid environment comprised of a VMware NSX SDDC front ended by a Check Point 5800 perimeter gateway allowing connectivity to AWS and Azure public cloud environments. We had prepared Ansible scripts to showcase the automatic deployment and configuration of CloudGuard gateways in both AWS and Azure including policies and VPN configuration.

Constantine,

When thinking and talking about public cloud, we need to think differently. We need to think automation and scale (i.e. having more smaller gateways as opposed to a single large gateway). We have auto scale templates in Azure and AWS that do just that and noted in the report: "the template enabled this CloudGuard instance to automatically scale, leveraging AWS’s native Auto Scaling features, without the need for the user to add more gateways" manually.

Have a look at the Cloud Security Blueprint as well.
