Security Reports

During the year, numerous security reports were published by the company, including:

Miercom Advanced Threat Prevention with Sandbox Analysis Report – Check Point Next Generation Threat Prevention with ThreatCloud Emulation Service delivered one hundred percent protection against Zero-Day threats, outperforming competitors by more than twenty seven percent in a recent assessment performed by Miercom, an independent product test center.

Zero Second Protection Test Report – Check Point analysts built and tested the speed at which security solutions from Check Point and three other competitors recognized, responded to, and protected against known malware. Of the four products tested, Check Point ThreatCloud identified malware in four minutes, blocked malware in zero minutes, and malware spent zero seconds on the network. This outperformed the three other solutions, who took a total average of over 11 minutes to identify malware.

Check Point 2014 Security Report – Check Point published its annual industry security report which provides insight into the major security events that occurred in organizations across the world and offers recommendations on how to protect against them. The report is based on collaborative research from our Security Checkup assessments, Threat Emulation sensors, ThreatCloud™ and Endpoint Security reports, and includes in-depth analysis of 200,000+ hours of monitored network traffic from over 9,000 security gateways across 996 organizations of various industries worldwide. The report is available at: http://www.checkpoint.com/campaigns/2014-security-report/

Security Vulnerability Research

Check Point Malware and Vulnerability Research Teams identified numerous critical vulnerabilities, in different elements of Internet infrastructure. Key findings include:

Android - Man in the Binder – Researchers at Check Point studied Android’s unique operating system (OS) architecture and demonstrated the potential capture of data and information being stored and communicated on Android devices through the Binder, the message passing mechanism in Inter-process Communication (IPC).

Mozilla - Bugzilla – Check Point uncovered a critical privilege escalation vulnerability in the popular bug-tracking platform called Bugzilla. Check Point’s security researchers informed the Mozilla Foundation, and the team leading the Bugzilla project quickly fixed the exploit.

Telco Infrastructure - TR-069 Vulnerabilities – Check Point uncovered a number of critical zero-day vulnerabilities that might have resulted in the compromise of millions of homes and business worldwide, through flaws in several TR-069 server implementations. Check Point has provided guidance to many telcos and technology providers to remedy the situation.

Network Security Products – Vulnerabilities in System Admin Portals – Check Point discovered vulnerabilities in the admin WebUI portals of three network security vendors. If targeted and exploited, these vulnerabilities would give hackers administrative control over the vendors’ security systems, potentially leaving business networks exposed to attacks. Check Point notified the relevant vendors and provided them with the information to remedy the vulnerabilities.

Home Routers - Misfortune Cookie – Check Point uncovered Misfortune Cookie, a critical vulnerability that allows an intruder to remotely take over a residential gateway device and use it to attack the devices connected to it. To date, researchers have distinctly detected at least 12 million readily exploitable devices connected to the Internet across the globe, making this one of the most widespread vulnerabilities revealed in recent years.

Check Point’s management believes the non-GAAP financial information provided in this release is useful to investors’ understanding and assessment of Check Point’s ongoing core operations and prospects for the future. Historically, Check Point has also publicly presented these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures in order to assist the investment community to see the Company “through the eyes of management,” and thereby enhance understanding of its operating performance.
