Check Point CloudGuard delivers enterprise-grade network security integrated with Megaport Virtual Edge (MVE), combining advanced threat prevention with flexible, scalable connectivity.

Using the Megaport Portal, you can create and manage MVE instances along with Virtual Cross Connects (VXCs) that connect to cloud on-ramps and other services within the Megaport software-defined network (SDN). MVE provides the underlying compute, networking, and connectivity platform, while Check Point CloudGuard delivers a secure overlay firewall and security policy enforcement.

For information about Check Point CloudGuard, see [CloudGuard Network Security](https://www.checkpoint.com/cloudguard/cloud-network-security/).

The following diagram shows an example network implementation of Check Point CloudGuard features over the Megaport network.
