Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. has announced the availability of Check Point R75.20, the latest

software release for its leading Software Blade Architecture. R75.20 brings customers a comprehensive

approach to security with:

New URL Filtering Software Blade – This new software blade provides granular control for web

surfing in real-time and uniquely integrates with Application Control for unified enforcement of

all Web controls. Over 100 million websites and 240,000 Web 2.0 applications and widgets are

now classified in Check Point’s cloud-based web categorization engine.

SSL Inspection – R75.20 enables businesses to inspect SSL-encrypted traffic across all software

blades, providing in-depth security analysis and data loss prevention services for applications

such as Gmail, eBay and Facebook.

Check Point also introduced two new high-end and data center system offerings, including Check

Point 61000 – a new carrier-grade security solution and the industry’s fastest security gateway – and a new data center appliance, Check Point 21400. In addition, the company also introduced SecurityPowerTM, a new metric for security performance that allows customers to estimate their security needs and compare it to the SecurityPower Units (SPU) rating of each security solution.

The R75.20 software blade release continues to build on the Check Point’s 3D Security vision, defining

security as a business process by combining policies, people and enforcement for stronger protection

across all layers of security.

The new integrated URL Filtering solution provides customers with a comprehensive approach to Web

control and leverages Check Point’s unique UserCheck technology that alerts and educates employees

about corporate policies, while enabling them to access websites and use Internet applications when

needed.

free upgrade for existing Check Point customers. Pricing for individual software blades begins at $1500
