Check Point Harmony SASE vs Defguard

Check Point Harmony SASE combines secure internet access, private network access, SaaS security, and SD-WAN in a hybrid platform. A single Check Point Infinity Portal console manages network infrastructure, users, and security. SaaS Security provides inline and API-based enforcement, application control, tenant restrictions, DLP, threat prevention, oversharing remediation, shadow SaaS discovery, and posture management. Private Access applies identity-based zero-trust policies to employees, third parties, and branch offices. Secure SD-WAN optimizes routing for more than 10,000 applications and users, steers traffic based on link health, and supports sub-second failover across MPLS, 5G, and broadband. Reporting integrations include Amazon S3, Splunk, and Azure Sentinel; documented identity integrations include Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, and Google Workspace. The service is described as SOC 2 Type 2 compliant. Its agent is listed for Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebook, Android, and iOS, with minimum versions specified for several systems. A free 30-day trial is available through the Check Point Portal; a software license is required afterward. Pricing is on request.
