What Do Check Point SASE Customers Say?

“Our insurance company required us to drop our old homegrown VPN solution for a more secure one. Fortunately, Check Point SASE fit that bill – it’s secure, reliable, and easy to set up, unlike our old VPN solution. When compared to other solutions on the market that we tested, Check Point SASE was, hands down, much simpler to get up and running and integrated with our current SD-WAN infrastructure.”

Brian J. Fischer

IT Manager/Senior Systems Administrator, Manhard

“We have been with Check Point SASE for about two years and the service has been absolutely superb. We have over 250 employees who all work in a hybrid environment across the UK. With Check Point SASE we can be calm because we know that our employees are safely accessing our company resources no matter where they are. On-boarding has been quick and smooth and the ongoing assistance in tackling our ever-growing challenges has been impressive.”

Hybrid Internet Access FAQs

What is a Hybrid Secure Web Gateway (SWG)?

A Hybrid Secure Web Gateway (SWG) is a Secure Web Gateway architecture that combines cloud-based enforcement with on-device protection to deliver flexible, high-performance Internet security. Unlike traditional SWGs that rely solely on cloud or on-prem deployments, a Hybrid SWG integrates a cloud security service with an endpoint-based SWG agent. This approach protects users whether they are on the corporate network or remote, eliminates the need for traffic backhauling, secures bypassed (split-tunneled) traffic, and performs SSL inspection locally on the device when required. By combining centralized cloud policy enforcement with device-level inspection, Hybrid SWG delivers stronger security, improved performance, enhanced privacy, and simplified management from a single console.

How does it protect users from web-based threats?

Hybrid SWG protects users from web-based threats by inspecting web traffic for malicious content and enforcing granular browsing policies. It blocks access to harmful websites, command-and-control servers, phishing pages, and other malicious destinations before they can impact users. By applying advanced threat prevention and real-time intelligence, it prevents ransomware, malicious file downloads, and zero-day attacks delivered through the web. On-device SSL inspection and cloud-based enforcement ensure that encrypted traffic is securely analyzed while maintaining performance and visibility across remote and on-network users.

Can it secure both on-premises and remote employees?

Yes, Hybrid SWG secures both on-premises and remote employees. By combining on-device enforcement with cloud-based security services, it protects users whether they are connected to the corporate network or working remotely. Security policies are applied consistently across environments, ensuring web traffic is inspected and threats are blocked regardless of location. This hybrid approach eliminates gaps caused by bypassed traffic and enables organizations to support distributed and hybrid workforces without compromising security or performance.

How does the hybrid model improve performance and reliability?

The hybrid model improves performance and reliability by allowing users to connect directly to Internet resources while security is enforced on the device. Instead of routing traffic through a central data center or relying solely on cloud inspection, Hybrid SWG eliminates backhauling and reduces latency for both on-network and remote users. On-device SSL inspection ensures encrypted traffic is analyzed locally, while centralized policy management provides consistent control across environments. This combination delivers faster access, reduced operational complexity, and reliable protection for distributed workforces.

How does it integrate with other Check Point SASE components?

Hybrid SWG is part of the Check Point SASE solution, which delivers Internet Access, Private Access, and SaaS Protect as a unified solution. The platform includes capabilities such as ZTNA, Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS), SD-WAN, and Data Loss Prevention, all centrally managed through the Check Point Portal to ensure consistent policy enforcement and visibility across Internet, private application, and SaaS access. In addition, a unified Internet Access policy can be centrally defined and consistently enforced across both Check Point Firewalls and Check Point SASE Internet Access, extending consistent web security controls across on-premises and cloud environments.
