We believe this recognition highlights our leadership in AI-driven email protection against advanced cyber threats
Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), a long-standing innovator and global provider of cyber security solutions, has announced its placement as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Email Security. The company demonstrated strong performance in core email defence, integrated email protection and outbound security capabilities, supported by its Harmony Email Collaboration platform powered by AI.
With businesses more digitally connected than ever, CISOs are under increasing strain to manage highly sophisticated email-based attacks while balancing constrained budgets and complex deployments. Check Point addresses these challenges through rapid-to-deploy, AI-driven security that supports vendor consolidation. Findings from Check Point Research’s 2025 Security Report underscore this need, showing that 68% of cyberattacks begin with email and 61% of malicious files are delivered via HTML. Leveraging AI and machine learning, Harmony Email helps organisations prevent malware, phishing, malicious attachments and business email compromise (BEC) before they access user inboxes.
“We are honored to be recognized once again as a Leader in Email Security,” said Gil Friedrich, Chief Workspace Officer at Check Point Software. “As email continues to power daily business operations, and remains the #1 attack vector, we are committed to delivering innovative, trustworthy, and easy-to-use protections that leverage the most advanced AI technologies to secure our customers.”
Check Point believes that it’s recognition in email security is fueled by the following differentiators:
- Proven security leadership: the only pure-play email security leader that offers complete workspace protection across email, endpoints, AI, SSE, external exposure, and DLP to keep pace with AI-driven attacks.
- Powerful core email protection: Offers strong detection capabilities that help organizations block both everyday attacks and advanced, sophisticated threats.
- Seamless protection for collaboration suites: Patented, one-click API deployment for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace scans messages pre-delivery and replaces multiple point tools with a single platform securing email, Teams, Slack, OneDrive, and SharePoint.
- Built-in autonomous phishing simulation and security awareness training: a unique capability to effortlessly deliver contextual AI-fueled phishing simulations and training to users, with zero configuration and zero deliverability issues.
