Checkpoint "ECHO" Product

[2ndfive8th]

Hi all -

Has anyone heard of a product called "ECHO" from Checkpoint?

I believe it is to be released in the near future and is related to the management of UTM appliances but that is all I know.

Thanks,

If I remember correctly then it is the NGX R65 with Messaging on the UTM-1 Appliances.

I have heard of a product like Horizon Manager for SPLAT. I am not sure when it will be out, but it should be soon.

Echo is "Messaging Security" available as a software option, an add-on to UTM-1 or with the "Total Security" package (UTM-1 + SS + EBS + Updates for SMDF, AV, CF and Messaging Security for 1, 3, or 5 years (IIRC))

This is not "Echo" and not announced yet (Read if it does exist, it is still under NDA). Talk directly to your Check Point SE for road-map products.

We try and avoid talking about anything that is under NDA here so not to ruffle Check Point Legal (you know lawyers are always looking to sue someone and justify their existence).
