We believe this further validates our AI-enhanced expertise in safeguarding organisations from advanced email-led threats
Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), a worldwide cyber security leader and pioneer in threat prevention, has announced that it has been named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Email Security. The ranking reflects the company’s strong performance across key pillars such as core email security, integrated email defence and outbound protections delivered through the AI-powered Harmony Email Collaboration suite.
In a digital landscape where enterprises operate in a state of continuous connectivity, CISOs are challenged by increasingly sophisticated email attacks compounded by tight budgets and complex system integration. Check Point meets these demands with rapidly deployable, AI-led security that also supports vendor consolidation strategies. Check Point Research’s 2025 Security Report highlights the urgency of such solutions, revealing that 68% of attacks begin through email and 61% of dangerous files are sent via HTML formats. Through advanced AI and machine learning, Harmony Email proactively prevents phishing, malware, harmful attachments and business email compromise (BEC) from reaching 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.
