Effective and User-Friendly Web Application Firewall
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Check Point CloudGuard WAF is its strong integration with cloud-native environments. It works seamlessly with our AWS deployment, and the automated protections help us stay ahead of evolving threats without constant manual tuning. The UI is intuitive, which makes managing policies and viewing logs much easier, even for team members who aren't deep into security. I also appreciate how responsive the threat intelligence updates are—there's a clear sense that we're being protected with real-time data. Overall, it gives us peace of mind knowing our web applications are secure without creating unnecessary complexity.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Check Point CloudGuard WAF is a solid solution overall, there are a few areas that could be improved. Occasionally, the initial configuration can be a bit time-consuming, especially for more complex environments. Also, while the documentation is helpful, some sections could benefit from a bit more clarity or real-world examples. That said, once everything is set up, the platform runs smoothly and delivers reliable protection.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Check Point CloudGuard WAF helps us protect our web applications from common threats like SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and bot attacks. It’s particularly valuable in our cloud environment, where scalability and automation are key. By automatically adapting to new threats and integrating smoothly with our DevOps workflows, it reduces the need for manual intervention and speeds up our response time. This not only strengthens our security posture but also frees up our team to focus on other priorities without worrying about constant monitoring or complex rule updates.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before we had no visibility into the application layer attacks targeting our web applications and APIs. We relied completely on our Next Generation Firewalls (NGFW) to protect our assets. Ever since we deployed Cloudguard WAF, we immediately understood that we were missing many attacks that were targeting the applications. Today, with Cloudguard WAF, we block an average of 3500 attacks on daily basis. In addition to that, with tha API protection, we are now able to identify all the endpoints associated with the applications and better protect our APIs.
