Shellpoint - Everything a CP engineer needs

Fr4nkys — Mon, 18 May 2026 01:38:50 GMT

Hello CheckMates!

My name is Alexandro (aka Frank)

Today I’d like to share a personal project with the community.

I’ve been working on Shellpoint, a lightweight alternative to PuTTY specifically designed for Check Point environments.

This is my first public project, and I’ve decided to open it up on GitHub so anyone can use it, explore it, and hopefully help improve it.

Website: https://franksec.com/shellpoint/
GitHub: https://github.com/Fr4nkys/shellpoint

(The first time you open shellpoint it might take a while to create directories in %appdata%)

I’d really appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or ideas about what could be added or improved. I’m always open to learning and making this better.

If you have any questions or want to contribute, feel free to reach out or visit the site.

Thanks for your time!

Is there a possibility to add a jump host when accessing a firewall. Sometimes we use a stepping stone (proxy) for customers until reaching the firewall. The option is present on putty, Mobaxterm, securecrt and other solutions.

Nice tool. Just testing it. If you could include syntax highlighting it will be great.
