FIREMON CHECK POINT INTEGRATIONS
Check Point Firewall Policy Management
Experience seamless integrations across Infinity Core Services and Quantum Force firewalls, delivered via the most comprehensive global partner network.
Simplify Policy Management for Check Point Firewalls
As enterprise networks grow more complex, manual tools can’t keep up, leading to misconfigurations, compliance gaps, and security risks. FireMon Security Manager enhances Check Point Infinity Core Services and delivers powerful benefits for Quantum NGFW users by streamlining policy management, reducing risk, and ensuring compliance.
The FireMon–Check Point partnership empowers organizations to:
- Identify and reduce policy-related vulnerabilities
- Manage rule changes across Check Point firewall and multi-vendor environments
- Maintain compliance with internal and external standards
- Simplify Check Point migration and optimization
- Centralize policy management across 80+ supported vendors
Reduce Risk
FireMon complements Check Point firewalls by offering real-time risk evaluation to find high-risk threats, and alerts to detect vulnerabilities in the environment. Enterprise users can leverage:
- Risk and threat modeling that evaluates the impact of exploits and displays recommended patches
- Risk guardrails that review proposed policy changes to ensure new risks aren’t introduced
- Vulnerability scanner integration that gives deeper insight into policy-related risks
Manage Change
FireMon gathers rules and policies from every firewall across the environment, including Check Point firewalls and those from other vendors, then stores them in a centralized rule repository.
With this, customers can:
- Detect new policies and changes to existing policies with real-time change monitoring
- Automate rule change workflows that span the entire rule creation and change process
- Policy change automation recommends rules and can optionally deploy them to devices across the network
Achieve and Maintain Compliance
Enforce security and compliance across a range of network devices, whether an entire network is 100% Check Point firewall management consoles, or a combination of various vendors.
With FireMon, customers can:
- Produce accurate compliance reports in minutes
- Run built-in or customized reports for standards including PCI-DSS, NERC-CIP, NIST, and GDPR
- Identify policy violations in existing rules and catch new ones before they’re deployed
- Automate rule reviews and recertification

- Visualize Policy Impact: Gain full visibility into the effect of every proposed change, helping you prevent disruptions and security gaps before they happen.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Check Point Firewall Management?
Check Point firewall management refers to the centralized control and configuration of Check Point security policies, rules, and devices across the network. It enables administrators to define, enforce, and monitor access controls, detect threats, and maintain compliance, all through unified management consoles like SmartConsole and SmartCenter.
What Are the Benefits of Check Point Infinity?
Check Point Infinity offers a unified security architecture that integrates threat prevention, network, cloud, and endpoint protections. Its benefits include consistent policy enforcement, simplified management, reduced operational overhead, and improved threat intelligence sharing. Infinity’s consolidated approach enhances visibility and streamlines operations across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
What Is a Next-Generation Firewall?
A next-generation firewall (NGFW) goes beyond traditional port and protocol filtering by offering deep packet inspection, application awareness, and advanced threat prevention. NGFWs enhance security in today’s dynamic environments.
Key next-generation firewall features include:
- Application and user-level visibility
- Intrusion prevention and threat detection
- Integrated threat intelligence
- SSL inspection and decryption
- Policy enforcement across hybrid environments
Next-Generation Firewall vs Traditional Firewall: What Is the Difference?
Traditional firewalls focus on basic filtering based on IP addresses and ports. Next-generation firewalls offer deeper inspection capabilities, application-level controls, and built-in threat prevention. NGFWs are better suited to modern security demands, enabling organizations to enforce granular policies and defend against advanced, evolving threats across distributed networks.
How Does FireMon Enhance Quantum Next-Generation Firewalls?
FireMon strengthens Check Point Quantum Force next-generation firewalls by automating rule management, identifying misconfigurations, and integrating real-time risk analysis. It provides advanced visibility across hybrid environments, optimizes rule sets, and supports compliance reporting—ensuring Check Point Quantum Force deployments are secure, efficient, and audit-ready at enterprise scale.
Can FireMon’s Check Point Quantum and Infinity Integrations Add Automation to My Workflows?
Yes, FireMon integrates with Check Point Quantum and Infinity platforms to automate policy workflows, rule creation, and compliance checks. This reduces manual effort, accelerates change control, and helps enforce risk guardrails. Automation also improves consistency and enables continuous monitoring across large, distributed security environments.
Does FireMon Support Check Point SmartConsole or SmartCenter Integrations?
Absolutely. FireMon integrates directly with Check Point SmartConsole and SmartCenter to collect, analyze, and manage policy data. This allows for seamless rule change tracking, compliance reporting, and risk evaluation—all within a centralized platform that supports both Check Point and multi-vendor environments.
Can FireMon Assist with Large-Scale Check Point Firewall Migrations?
Yes. FireMon simplifies large-scale Check Point firewall migrations by mapping existing policies, identifying redundant or unused rules, and streamlining rule optimization. Its centralized management and automation capabilities reduce migration complexity, lower risk, and ensure a smooth transition to new environments like Check Point Quantum Force.
