Infinity SOC uses industry-first AI-based incident analysis powered by
market-leading threat intelligence to cut through false positive alerts and
automatically pinpoint critical incidents, with single-click remediation
Check Point®
Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), a leading provider of
cybersecurity solutions globally, has announced the launch of Infinity
SOC, which unifies threat prevention, detection, investigation and remediation
in a single platform to give unrivalled security and operational efficiency. Infinity SOC is used daily by the Check Point
research cyber analysts, to expose and investigate the world’s most dangerous
and sophisticated cyber-attacks. It uses AI-based incident analysis to filter
millions of irrelevant logs and alerts, helping enterprise security teams to
expose and shut down cyber-attacks with best-in-class speed and
precision.
Security
Operations Centre (SOC) teams at a majority of organizations struggle to
identify and mitigate malicious activity on their complex network estates,
because they use multiple point products that generate millions of event logs
and alerts daily. In a SOC
survey*, 68% of respondents stated that up to half of the events they
analyse are false positives. As a result, critical attacks are often undetected
until it is too late. 98% of IT security professionals reported SOC-related
challenges, with the leading operational challenges being the manual work
involved in analyzing and remediating incidents (cited by 52%), accurately
identifying the most critical events (52%), and an overload of logs and alerts
(51%).
Check Point’s Infinity SOC solves these
challenges and helps enterprises protect their networks by delivering:
● Unrivalled
accuracy to quickly shut down real attacks: it automatically exposes
even the stealthiest attacks from millions of daily logs and alerts with
unrivalled accuracy, powered by industry-first AI incident analysis. Infinity
SOC automatically triages alerts to enable quicker respond to the critical attacks
and offers single click remediation with a lightweight client on the infected
host. It also prevents hackers from launching phishing campaigns against
users by taking down lookalike corporate web and email domains.
● Rapid incident
investigations: Infinity SOC
is powered by ThreatCloud, the
world’s largest collaborative network to fight cybercrime, enabling teams to
quickly search for in-depth live intelligence on any indicator of compromise,
including global spread, attack timelines and patterns, malware DNA and more.
This also includes deep-link searches on social media and OSINT to deepen
investigations – unlike other solutions, which use offline threat databases.
Suspicious files are quickly checked using SandBlast Threat Emulation, which has the industry’s best malware
catch rate.
● Zero-friction deployment: Infinity SOC is a
single, centrally managed cloud platform, improving teams’ operational
efficiency and reducing TCO. It deploys in minutes, and avoids costly log
storage and privacy concerns with unique cloud-based event analysis that does
not export and store event logs.
"It was critical for
us to find a solution to help us cut through the daily deluge of alerts and
events and find the handful of genuine, potentially damaging threats to our
networks,” said Soren Kristensen, Security Engineer at Terma A/S.
"Infinity SOC delivers exactly that, and more. It has enabled us to filter
out all the irrelevant alerts and background noise so we can see the true state
of security across our network, and to automate processes, which enables us to
focus on the activities that really matter. It also gives us threat
intelligence and hunting capabilities that we simply didn’t have
previously."
"Infinity SOC enables
security teams to cut through the daily overload of event alerts, and
eliminates network blind spots to automatically pinpoint and block the most
sophisticated attacks before they can cause damage,” said Itai Greenberg, VP of Product Management at
Check Point. “Its advanced AI-based analytics, powered by the
industry’s most advanced threat intelligence resource, filters millions of
alerts into the handful of critical, genuine threats so that analysts can makes
the fastest, most targeted responses possible to safeguard their
organization. No other solution offers Infinity SOC’s combination of
automated prevention, detection,
investigation and remediation capabilities in a single platform.”
