Some scanners flag unsupported versions of common products, but coverage varies, and none of them give you the date in advance. Running Check Point security gateway appliances (hardware) QLS650 past its EOL date creates a growing attack surface that a clean scan result does not rule out.
Migrate to Check Point security gateway appliances (hardware) 2590 or implement compensating controls — network segmentation, enhanced monitoring, restricted access — while migration is underway.
