FINAL WORD

The three Cs of best security : Comprehensive , consolidated and collaborative

Rupal Hollenbeck , President , Check Point Software Technologies , and Itai Greenberg , Chief Security Officer , Check Point Software Technologies , share their vision of a ‘ prevention first ’ security posture .

Check Point Software Technologies was founded 30 years on the basis that prevention is better than remediation when it comes to cybersecurity . “ That vision has never been more important than in today ’ s digital landscape as organizations face sophisticated fifth generation cyberattacks from every threat vector and need to adopt a prevention-first approach to today ’ s security posture ,” said Itai Greenberg , Chief Security Officer , Check Point Software Technologies .

Checkpoint ’ s own research revealed that in 2022 global cyberattacks rose by 38 % compared to the previous year – with little evidence of attacks slowing down in 2023 .
“ The threat of multiple attack vectors looms large , and hackers are shifting their focus from individuals to organizations as they attempt to cause maximum disruption . With such a complex threat landscape , ensuring your organization has the best security measures in place should be a priority ,” said Greenberg .
But what does that look like ?
“ At Check Point Software Technologies , we believe in a prevention-first strategy built on a foundation of the three Cs : comprehensive , consolidated and collaborative ,” said Rupal Hollenbeck , President , Check Point Software Technologies .
“ Less mature cybersecurity vendors often claim that cyberattacks will happen no matter how robust your security is . The best you can do is detect the attack once
