1. Check Point Getting Started R80.20. Introduction

Welcome to the first lesson! And we will start with the Introduction. Before starting a conversation about Check Point, I would like to first tune in with you “on the same wavelength”. To do this, I will try to explain a few conceptual things:

• What are UTM solutions and why did they appear?
• What is Next Generation Firewall or Enterprise Firewall, how are they different from UTM?
• The leaders of this market.
• What is the advantage of UTM / NGFW over classic protections?

If this topic is not interesting to you, then you can safely skip this lesson. This will not affect your understanding of the following lessons, which will be devoted exclusively to Check Point solutions.
If this topic interests you, then, as usual, under the cut you will find a video tutorial!

I hope this tutorial was useful! The next one will be released on Wednesday on our Youtube channel .
