Black Hat USA 2018: Take the Check Point Cyber Challenge

Next week, the doors to Black Hat USA 2018 open at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.

In booth #764 in the Business Hall, Check Point will showcase our newest, most powerful security solutions for preventing today’s fifth generation network, cloud, and mobile threats. Visit our exhibit to learn about the five generations of cyber attacks and how cyber security technology has evolved in parallel. Our research has revealed that 97 percent of organizations are only equipped to cope with Gen II or Gen III threats – our exhibit at Black Hat will show you how Gen V cyber security can help you adapt accordingly.

In addition, you will not want to miss our hourly theater presentations that explore recent mega attacks and how they could have been prevented. This year, we are also holding a unique Cyber Challenge at the booth about threat prevention, see product demos, and enter our raffles for chances to win prizes.

Here are some more details on what we have in store for you at BlackHat USA 2018:

Check Point Cyber Theater

Hear our world-leading experts present the current challenges for securing data and assets in the cloud, across an enterprise mobile fleet, and detecting and stopping advanced threats across multiple networks and environments.

Preventing Mobile Cyberattacks

The last few years have brought an explosion of attacks on mobile devices. Some attacks are familiar – like CopyCat, infecting 14 million devices and rooting 8 million – while others, like Lights Out and Janus, are lesser known. Visit our booth to discover Check Point SandBlast Mobile. Recently launching with revolutionary on-device VPN, SandBlast 3.0 provides protection against all the known and emerging vectors for mobile attacks.

Don’t Get Burned: Gen V Protections for the Cloud

Innovation in cloud technologies means that networks are more interconnected than ever. At the same time, threats have become far more automated and sophisticated. In cloud-based networks, we can no longer own or manage the infrastructure, strongly limiting our ability to see and control our own technology and assets. In the rush to get to the cloud, we may not be doing enough due diligence to really understand the risks these new environments carry nor how to best plug those gaps. Learn how CloudGuard IaaS safeguards your data in public and private clouds as well as in hybrid networks.

Advanced Threat Prevention with Sandblast Zero-Day

Gen V attacks target multiple vectors, making anything that’s connected part of the attack surface. Leveraging state-sponsored technologies, Gen V attacks can leave a devastating impact on your business.

Check Point SandBlast threat prevention is the proven Gen V cyber security solution that addresses 5^th generation attacks across networks, endpoints, mobile devices and the cloud. As part of Check Point Infinity Architecture, we offer three lines of defense.
