Internet traffic volumes are doubling every three years and corporate networks are growing about 25% every year. At the same time, security attacks are becoming more sophisticated. Cyber crime can also invade the privacy of consumers and therefore is considered a breach of the human right to privacy.
Check Point introduced the first commercially available firewall and has kept up its innovative edge with a steady stream of industry-first cyber security solutions.
