Check Point External Risk Management vs Microsoft Defender for Business

Check Point External Risk Management is a cloud-based service for discovering and reducing risks across an organization’s internet-facing assets. It identifies assets associated with brands, cloud environments, and suppliers, then analyzes vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, correlates them with threat intelligence, and scores and prioritizes risks. Continuous monitoring and recurring assessments aim to reveal new weaknesses and limit how long they remain exposed. Teams receive prioritized recommendations and a practical remediation and hardening roadmap, alongside a compliance and regulatory alignment review. Coverage combines threat intelligence, deep and dark web monitoring, external attack surface management, digital risk protection, and supply-chain intelligence. Check Point experts can provide investigations, threat reports, phishing-site and social-profile takedowns, red-team exercises, and attack simulations. The agentless SaaS service offers Essential and Advanced packages: Essential has one regular user, one integration, weekly scans, and 20 remediation coins; Advanced has three regular users, two integrations, daily scans, and 100 coins. Microsoft Sentinel integration can synchronize alerts and trigger SOAR playbooks. Pricing is on request.
