and logging creation across the portfolio.
• TrustID – Delivers centralized identity management across on-prem
and cloud-based identity providers.
• Unified cross-product, visibility, logging, events and reporting.

Hybrid Mesh Network Security Architecture
The new corporate network has become exponentially more complex, leading organizations to
reevaluate their security architecture and connectivity fabric. Adopting security models that are
solely cloud-based or on-premises, leads to performance degradation, security inconsistencies
and compliance issues. A hybrid security model, on the other hand, combines the best of all worlds
to optimize business agility, security, overall experience, and costs.
At Check Point, we
On-Premises Security Cloud (SASE) Security Hybrid Security
recognized the need for a
Connectivity Limited Mesh only Agile mesh hybrid approach to deliver
Enforcement point Site Cloud Site and/or cloud network security and have
developed an architecture
Performance Limited Limited Optimal over the years that delivers
Cost Medium High Optimal on that promise.
What is a Hybrid Mesh Network Security Architecture?
Our unique approach, called a Hybrid mesh
Network Security Architecture, combines
security enforcement points in multiple
form factors, enabling enterprises to mix
and match them to best meet their unique
needs and network architecture. This
approach eliminates reliance on a single
enforcement point, making security more
resilient, distributed, cost-effective and
scalable.
Hybrid Mesh Network Security form factors
include hardware and virtual appliances,
cloud-delivered points of presence (PoPs),
endpoint agents, browser extensions and
mobile device agents. This approach enables organizations to effectively secure branch offices,
data centers, cloud deployments, SaaS applications, mobile users and email correspondence.
At the heart of the Hybrid Mesh Network architecture lies SASE . However, connectivity between
the different edge types, doesn’t rely solely on the SASE network, as other security form factors
can communicate directly with each other or externally to SaaS and web destinations.
For example, remote users browsing the web with an on-device agent can connect directly to the
destination website without going through the cloud SASE service for security inspection. Similarly
workloads can be migrated from the on-prem datacenter to IaaS, without requiring cloud-based
routing. Conversely, a remote user connecting to public cloud applications, can do so through the
nearest SASE PoP, so their traffic isn’t backhauled through an on-prem appliance, delivering a
better user experience.
