"Effective Code Security with Seamless CI/CD Integration"

4/5

What do you like best about Check Point CloudGuard Code Security?

What I appreciate most about Check Point CloudGuard Code Security is how it integrates seamlessly into our CI/CD pipelines, allowing us to discover misconfigurations and vulnerabilities in infrastructure-as-code and containers before deployment. Our DevSecOps team benefits from real-time visibility, compliance mapping, and policy enforcement, which enables them to detect risks early on and save time and rework. Its ability to deliver immediate repair information directly to developers distinguishes it from other warning systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Check Point CloudGuard Code Security?

One disadvantage of Check Point CloudGuard Code Security is that the initial configuration and policy customization may be difficult, particularly for organizations new to DevSecOps methods. The documentation, although extensive, might be clearer in certain complex areas, which may hinder uptake. Furthermore, interaction with certain third-party development tools requires additional configuration. Finally, reporting dashboards, although powerful, might be intimidating at first and could benefit from more basic, out-of-the-box views." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point CloudGuard Code Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Check Point CloudGuard Code Security is assisting us with the difficulty of safeguarding our apps early in the development lifecycle. It discovers misconfigurations, exposed secrets, and vulnerabilities in our code before they reach production, therefore drastically lowering risk. Integrating security directly into CI/CD pipelines guarantees compliance with industry requirements while also preventing expensive security issues. This not only enhanced our overall security posture, but it also saved our team time by automating inspections that were previously done manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A reliable solution for DevSecOps and cloud code security"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Check Point CloudGuard Code Security?

CloudGuard Code Security integrates seamlessly with our CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins and GitHub Actions). It provides real-time scanning of infrastructure as code (IaC) like Terraform and CloudFormation. I appreciate its detailed vulnerability reports, policy-as-code capabilities, and easy-to-use dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Check Point CloudGuard Code Security?

The initial setup and configuration were a bit complex and required documentation referencing. Also, it can sometimes generate false positives in custom scripts. Improved documentation for multi-cloud deployment scenarios would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point CloudGuard Code Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Check Point CloudGuard Code Security helps us identify security issues in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and application code early in the development lifecycle. By integrating it into our CI/CD pipeline, we’re able to shift security left and catch misconfigurations, hardcoded secrets, and compliance violations before they reach production.

This not only improves the overall security posture of our cloud-native applications but also saves time and effort by reducing manual code reviews and post-deployment fixes. It ensures faster and more secure deployments while maintaining compliance with standards like CIS Benchmarks and industry best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
