On World Quantum Day, much of the conversation celebrates breakthroughs in medicine, materials, and computing. But for cyber security leaders, quantum computing represents a fundamental disruption to the cryptographic foundations that secure our digital world. Q-Day is closer than you think What was once considered a distant, theoretical risk is rapidly becoming reality. Advances in quantum computing, including improved algorithms and reduced qubit requirements, are accelerating timelines. What the industry once viewed as a 2040s challenge is now approaching within years. In late 2025, Gartner elevated Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) migration to a board-level priority, urging action ahead of a 2030 […]

Check Point is proud to integrate with NVIDIA DSX Air’s testing environment, enabling organizations to pre-validate their security aware AI data center designs before ever deploying their first piece of hardware in production to build and run their own AI.  Testing AI Factory deployments end-to-end is challenging and can require complex multi-vendor orchestration. From compute to networking, orchestration, and security, ensuring integrations, configurations and automations perform as expected can become resource-intensive with so many factors at play.   Now, organizations can perform large-scale cyber security validation testing before deploying AI Factories, using the NVIDIA DSX Air cloud-based simulation and validation platform.  Why are Organizations Building Their […]

As malware evades detection by hiding inside password-protect zip files, new Threat Emulation capabilities enable inspecting and blocking malicious ZIP files without requiring their password. As cyber defenses evolve, so do attacker tactics. One of the most persistent evasion techniques in the wild involves embedding malware inside password-protected ZIP files, making it difficult for traditional security tools to inspect their content. The Challenge: Breaking the Password Delivery Chain Attackers have adapted. Their new strategy? Splitting the delivery path: The malicious ZIP file is sent via email. The password arrives through an out-of-band channel, often SMS or messaging apps. This multi-channel […]
