Check Point Quantum IPS

Check Point Quantum IPS is a high-performance next-generation intrusion prevention system delivered as an integrated software blade on Check Point Quantum security gateways. Engineered to defend enterprise network perimeters, data centers, and campus environments against advanced cyber attacks, Quantum IPS delivers deep packet inspection across network and application layers, stopping exploits, port scans, malware downloads, protocol anomalies, and command-and-control communications in real time.

Operating with industry-leading throughput and ultra-low latency, Quantum IPS is continuously updated with threat intelligence from Check Point ThreatCloud AI, ensuring immediate protection against newly disclosed Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) before enterprise teams can apply official software patches. Key features include Autonomous Threat Prevention, preconfigured best-practice defense profiles, granular protocol anomaly inspection, behavioral protection against brute-force attacks, and extensive coverage across enterprise operating systems and applications. Administrators can test new protection signatures safely in detect-only mode before shifting to active block mode.

Quantum IPS integrates seamlessly into Check Point SmartConsole and Infinity Portal, enabling synchronized policy orchestration alongside firewall, application control, and anti-bot protections. Core enterprise use cases include shielding unpatched mission-critical servers (virtual patching), preventing remote code execution exploits across public-facing servers, safeguarding internal networks against lateral exploit movement, and fulfilling mandatory compliance mandates including PCI-DSS requirement 11.4 and ISO/IEC 27001. Check Point Quantum IPS provides multi-gigabit throughput with verified high reliability.
