Top Rated Check Point Application Control Alternatives
The number of applications is enormous. The app database covers all applications for internet. You can easily switch from a a classical firewall to a next gen firewall using application security. Inline and ordered layers are used for enhancing the security. Using application control and url at different layers decrease the transition time from classical to next gen Layer 7 security. App control and URL filtering needs to be used for total Internet access security. Granuality with unified layers is awesome. Internet as a dynamic object in the rule base is a big plus, you can just set the destination as internet and set the applications without constant worry of if it blocks the inter zone traffics. Smartevent integration assists the firewall admins to see the overall usage of applications. QOS based on the applications is also a distinct advantage, many vendors do only classical OQS which is ineffective at modern security. Application control can also be implemented at MDM global security policies and that helps the companies to set the general security standarts for all managed devices. Identity awareness module entegration is to be used for user/group based controls for application and url filtering. Logging is awesome, you can set different options to increse the visibility. It's a one click to enable and disable the module. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Application control at the Data Center layer is a big tricky. As the Application control-blade aims to cover the internet based applications. You need to define custom applications for inhouse applications many times. When you use application layer next to access layer it gives you holistics view increasing visibility and decreasing maintenance however it's a security risk as the default last action is accept. This is a negative security model and it's controversial to ZTNA approach. You should move to inliy layers to enhance the security, otherwise you have always a gap to identify and reavluate every time. As there are lots of applications and they're updated regulary, there's no info which one is updated or the new ones come with the latest updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Check Point Application Control has the biggest application database in the world. The database groups applications into searchable categories. Hence, we can create granular policies for allowing access to the trusted list while blocking access from the blacklist or limiting usage if consuming much bandwidth.

Almost applications work in encrypted connections. To identify exactly applications and their operations (upload, download, chat,...), we need to enable HTTPS inspection. But we may face resource problems because HTTPS inspection consume much CPU usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
