I had been dealing with CP products for 15 years now and I can tell effort Vladimir put into it. He explains things really well and even for someone who does not have much experience with Check Point, it would be easy to understand and follow along. I strongly recommend the book.

As someone who has taught authorized Check Point classes since 2004, I'm constantly asked if there are any good introductory books covering Check Point security gateways & management. I was unable to give them a good answer until now with the publication of Vladimir's great new book.Taking a "build it as you learn about it" approach that is ideal for self-teaching, this book fills a serious need for those that are new to Check Point. The book gives you everything you need to work with production Check Point security gateways, imbued with a healthy dose of "real world" expertise and best practices that goes well beyond any official Check Point documentation or training classes. Even if you don't plan to actually build the lab environment specified by the book, just reading it will provide valuable knowledge and fresh insights for a Check Point novice and seasoned expert alike.While not directly intended to be a CCSA exam prep guide, this book does cover many of the same CCSA topics with a slightly different spin; undoubtedly this will be beneficial on the exam to help fill in any gaps in your knowledge.I've worked with Check Point products for 25 years, and even published several books about them myself. However even I gained new insights and tips from reading this "introductory" book. If that fact doesn't convince you that this book is a worthy addition to your collection, I don't know what will. My highest recommendation and well done Vladimir!Timothy HallAuthor "Max Power 2020: Check Point Firewall Performance Optimization" (Third Edition)

Vlad has done a great job explaining the core concepts of Check Point firewalls in very easy and simple language.This book is a must read for all the engineers working with Check Point's network security solutions.I have been working with Check Point products for over 7 years now and I wish I had this kind of a reference material when I started.This book can help a lot of Security Engineers out there like me, as a point of reference during our operations daily.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
