AI security is getting attention because AI has stopped being a side experiment.  It is now part of how work gets done. Employees use copilots to write, research, code, and analyze. Product teams are adding AI into customer experiences. Developers are building applications on top of foundation models. Business teams are experimenting with agents that can read email, summarize documents, query data, and trigger workflows.  That is a very different world from the one many AI review processes were designed for.  An AI system can pass a benchmark and still fail in production. It can behave safely in a clean test environment and then encounter real […]

Shadow AI is no longer a theoretical risk. Employees are adopting AI tools faster than security teams can track them, often without IT’s knowledge, and frequently on devices and surfaces that traditional security tools simply can’t see. If you asked your security team right now how many AI tools are active across your organization, on which surfaces, and what’s being shared, could they answer? For most organizations, the honest answer is no. And that gap, between what your employees are doing with AI and what your security team can actually see, is where enterprise risk lives today.  AI adoption in the enterprise didn’t slow down and wait for governance to catch […]

The model behind a security workflow shapes how fast a threat is caught, how accurately an incident is investigated, and how much a defender can trust the result. We treat that choice with care. Today we’re taking a clear step forward: Check Point has joined OpenAI’s Daybreak initiative through its Trusted Access for Cyber (TAC) program. These are real steps in how we bring AI into our defensive operations, and in the security we deliver to our customers. What Trusted Access for Cyber Gives Us Trusted Access for Cyber is OpenAI’s program for vetted security organizations that need its most […]

Key Findings:   Check Point Research identified a critical vulnerability chain in LangGraph, an open-source framework from the creators of LangChain that enables developers to build complex, stateful, and controllable AI agent workflows using LLMs; they have approximately 46.5 million monthly downloads, making it one of the most widely adopted AI agent platforms in the world An SQL injection in LangGraph’s function could allow attackers to gain full control via remote code execution of a server by exploiting weaknesses in how the system processes and handles data. A compromised LangGraph server exposes everything the agent touches, including LLM API keys, customer data, CRM credentials, conversation history, and internal network […]

Enterprise security has always had a comforting assumption baked into it: systems do what they were built to do. Sometimes badly. Sometimes insecurely. Sometimes in ways that make auditors develop a nervous twitch. But still, the basic shape was understandable. Applications processed requests. Databases stored data. APIs connected systems. Users clicked things they probably should not have clicked. Then AI arrived and made the whole thing a little weird. AI did not introduce one neat new risk category. Security teams are very good at turning new risk categories into taxonomies, dashboards, and meetings with names like “working group.” The real […]

When people hear about hackers “asking an AI chatbot” to help them take over Instagram accounts, the instinctive reaction is to file it under prompt injection, jailbreaks, or “the model got tricked.”  That may be the wrong lesson.  According to reporting from 404 Media, hackers claimed they used Meta’s AI support chatbot to gain access to high-profile Instagram accounts by asking it to change the email address associated with the target account. The reported incidents coincided with several high-profile account takeovers, including accounts linked to the Obama White House, Sephora, and the Chief Master Sergeant of the Space Force.    […]

At GTC Taipei during COMPUTEX 2026, NVIDIA is highlighting the growing adoption of its NVIDIA Vera BlueField-4 STX architecture and introducing new NVIDIA DOCA-powered innovations designed to secure the next generation of enterprise AI infrastructure. As organizations continue scaling AI factories, private LLM environments, distributed inference systems, and increasingly autonomous AI operations, enterprise infrastructure requirements are rapidly evolving. Modern AI environments combine high-performance compute, distributed storage systems, inference pipelines, Kubernetes clusters, APIs, GPU server farms, and sensitive enterprise data operating continuously at enormous scale. At the same time, AI-driven environments are introducing increasingly dynamic machine-to-machine interactions across infrastructure, applications, and […]

At Check Point we don’t wait for threats to evolve; we evolve ahead of them. This is why we’ve been running our Frontier AI Models Readiness Program: a proactive, structured initiative designed to ensure that our products remain resilient as AI models grow increasingly capable of understanding complex software systems and assisting adversaries in attacking them. As part of this program, we conducted large-scale AI-driven code scanning across our products, performed extensive security reviews, hardened components where needed, refined our time-to-patch procedures, and accelerated our protection development processes to meet the pace of emerging AI-driven threats. Today’s Jumbo Security Release […]

As AI rapidly reshapes industries, the role of the cloud has become even more critical. From automated customer experiences to intelligent cyber security and predictive analytics, AI transformations are increasingly being built on a cloud-first foundation. Over the past two years, AI has swiftly moved from an experimental state to an operational reality, with every leading organization embedding AI into the core of how they build, operate, and compete. However, security architectures have not kept pace with the AI transformation. Closing that gap requires more than incremental fixes. It demands a rethinking of how security is designed, deployed, and enforced […]
