We are happy to announce that CloudGuard Network Security integrates with AWS Cloud WAN

AWS Cloud WAN is a managed wide-area network (WAN) service that lets customers easily connect and route their data centers, remote sites, and cloud applications over the AWS global network.

Cloud WAN enables customers to create and operate their wide-area networks with simple network policies, removing the necessity to stitch together different networking, security, and third-party services.
Improves network security with built-in network segmentation capabilities, making it easier for customers to manage network isolation across their AWS or on-premises locations.
Provides the control plane for how customer traffic flows through the AWS global network for their geographically dispersed use-cases, making it possible to create high-performance, scalable, and secure wide-area networks in minutes.

Check Point CloudGuard Network Security integrates with Cloud WAN through the existing Gateway Load Balancer (GWLB) integration. This integration simplifies creating equivalent but complex architecture with Transit Gateways + GWLB.
