Check Point Harmony SASE vs SURF Zero Trust Enterprise Browser

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.

SURF Zero Trust Enterprise Browser is a browser and extension for organisations that enforce security controls on user devices. It can discover AI tools, mask sensitive prompts, and block risky uploads in real time. A sandboxed, human-verified runtime is described for autonomous browser agents, with an air gap between planning and live access. Scoped access to corporate applications is available for contractors, BYOD staff, and acquired teams without VPN or VDI. SURF says it logs AI interactions and policy decisions while keeping personal browsing private. Controls map to GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and DORA, with SOC 2-ready evidence generation. Deployment can use existing MDM or self-installation, and enforcement runs on the device without proxy or cloud redirection. The full browser supports Windows, macOS, and Linux; mobile support includes iOS, iPadOS, and Android. The extension works with Chrome, Edge, and other Chromium browsers. Integrations include Okta, Microsoft, Splunk, Datadog, Kandji, HashiCorp, VirusTotal, and Elastic.
