Check Point Maestro

Hyperscalability in Cyber Security

Check Point Maestro is a security solution unique in the industry in terms of its scalability, resilience and efficiency. Combined with the installation, configuration, administration and technical support services offered by Safetech Innovations, Maestro successfully meets the current cyber security challenges of medium and large companies and organizations.

Solution overview

Check Point Maestro is a modern solution that helps to strengthen security and simplify its management, which provides a series of functionalities that include:

  • Next Generation Firewall (NGFW),
  • IPS,
  • DLP,
  • IPSec and SSL VPN concentrators,
  • URL filtering,
  • Application control,
  • Anti-virus,
  • Zero-day protection,
  • Email security,
  • HTTPS inspection.

Features and architecture

Check Point, company that held 23 times the status of leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for network firewalls, addresses the problems of segmentation and scalability of networks in medium and large organizations with its solution, Maestro. The solution enables the creation of a single logical network environment spanning multiple physical or virtual network devices, simplifying network segmentation and reducing the complexity of managing multiple security gateways. This helps organizations manage their network infrastructure in an efficient and secure manner. Also, with Maestro companies can dynamically scale their security infrastructure as their network grows without any disruption to current operations.

Within the solution, Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrator/MHO distributes internal or external traffic across multiple Security Gateway Modules/SGMs (Quantum firewalls, for example) and manages them as a unified group by applying common security policies and configuration rules. Up to 52 security instances (SGMs) can be connected to an orchestrator, which can be assigned to security groups (Security Groups/SG) and can run various Check Point security solutions.

The solution provide resiliency using N+1 cluster load sharing and Check Point HyperSync technologies, and allow additional instances to be added through autoscaling functionality without service interruption. Thus Check Point Maestro can deliver, in on-premises scenarios, a level of elasticity and agility specific to cloud computing services.

Flexible and scalable deployment

Check Point Maestro is aimed at medium and large organizations, which can start with a basic format and which can grow in the future by adding Security Modules similar to the original ones or from a more recent technological generation.

The basic format, which includes at least two traffic processing modules, can be expanded up to 52 modules. This modular approach enables traffic scaling of up to 150 Gbps for a Checkpoint 6600 security gateway or up to 1.5 Tbps for the 28000 series.
