Changes to Check Point page - Products section

Hi, following a conversation with john of Reading, I would like to suggest edits to the product section of the Check Point Wikipedia page. to begin with, I am declaring i am currently employed by Check Point as the Head of Product marketing. my main intention is to ensure the factual accuracy of the Check Point Portfolio of products. The product section was not updated for a long time and I want to make sure it accurately represents our offering to date (2020) for the update suggested below I am suggesting an objective and neutral language that has no marketing appeal to it, nor it discusses any superlatives or sales bias.

Under network Security add the following: Next Generation Firewall – running GAiA OS, R80.x software [12], Check Point next generation firewalls and software platforms support small businesses (SMB) to large enterprise data center and telco-grade environments. Each security gateway includes next generation firewall, IPS, VPN, WAF, SSL, and Data Security (DLP) as well as threat prevention technologies blocking known and unknown a cyber-attacks. The security gateways are available as a cloud service, software-only products that can run on standard hardware, or dedicated security gateway hardware appliances. [13]

🔼  Clarification requested  

  • The proposal cannot be evaluated because many of the described terms are not Wikilinked.[a] To that end, kindly link acronyms and other technical terms with their respective Wikilinks in your proposal.
  • As the proposed text makes claims to these product's functionality and compatibility — and thus, are making claims about the product's inherent value — please provide references from reliable, independent, WP:SECONDARY sources.

Notes

  1. ^ If the terms appeared earlier on the article's page, then Wikilinks would not normally be needed. However, that guidance is relative: Regardless of whether the terms already exist on the article's page, the terms do not appear previously on this talk page — thus they ought to be Wikilinked.

Hi Spintendo thanks much for your response. this is highly appreciated as I make my first strides with Wiki editing below is a revised text edits based on your guidelines:

Extended content

Next Generation Firewall – running R80.x software [12], Check Point next generation firewalls and software platforms support small businesses (SMB) to large enterprise data center and telco-grade environments. [1] 

Each security gateway includes next generation firewall, IPS, VPN, WAF, SSL, and Data Security (DLP) as well as threat prevention technologies blocking known and unknown a cyber-attacks. The security gateways are available as a cloud service, software-only products that can run on standard hardware, or dedicated security gateway hardware appliances. [2]


The Gartner Magic Quadrant should cover the claims on support for SMB, data center and Telco grade environments. it also supports the last claim on availability on cloud and software only
