SAN CARLOS, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 15, 2014) - Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), the worldwide leader in securing the internet, today announced that its network security products offer multiple protections from the Heartbleed vulnerability, providing for the security of customers' clients, servers and the integrity of their network data.
Check Point network security products are not susceptible to Heartbleed exploits as the company utilizes a non-vulnerable version of OpenSSL. The company also provided multiple protections against attacks leveraging the Heartbleed bug that include:
"The Heartbleed vulnerability is a critical and far-reaching security threat that potentially exposes sensitive personal and business information to remote hackers. Check Point's products provide multiple elements of protection against Heartbleed. First, our network security products are not vulnerable to this threat as Check Point uses a non-vulnerable version of OpenSSL. Second, our HTTPS inspection inherently prevents Heartbleed traffic. Finally, our timely IPS protection will detect and block attempts to exploit this vulnerability," said Dorit Dor, vice president of products at Check Point Software Technologies.
Additional Information on Heartbleed:
"The Heartbleed vulnerability is so worrisome because of the pervasive use of OpenSSL and the fact that consumers often do not employ password best-practices, opening themselves to credential theft. Further, enterprises need to worry not only about the loss of customer account information, but also the compromise of employee credentials, as well as the exploitation of vulnerable network devices utilizing OpenSSL," said John Grady, research manager of security products and services at IDC.
"The Heartbleed bug is a serious security threat affecting a wide range of IT operations around the world. While it continues to be a major concern for many businesses, Hotel Nikko is safeguarded by Check Point's leading Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) and its other network security solutions. We are pleased with Check Point's immediate protection and I'm confident in the security that Check Point provides for our network," said Manuel Ruiz, IT director at Hotel Nikko San Francisco.
