Building on our previous Illumio Insights integration, Check Point and Illumio are expanding their partnership with an integration to Illumio Segmentation, helping organizations prevent threats, expose risky paths, contain lateral movement across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, and better align gateway enforcement with microsegmentation policy. Hybrid environments keep getting more complex. Applications and data now span data centers, private cloud, public cloud, SaaS, remote access paths, and shared services, while attackers are using AI to move faster from intrusion to impact. Security teams are not just trying to stop threats at the edge. They also need to see how traffic moves […]

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 […]

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 […]

The post 2026 Cloud Security Report: Why Traditional Network, Cloud, and Security Architecture Are Lagging Behind the AI Transformation appeared first on Check Point Blog.

Networks used to be simple. A perimeter. A data center. A set of rules a single engineer could hold in their head. That world is long gone. Every wave of enterprise transformation – cloud migration, M&A, hybrid multi-cloud, IoT, remote work – added another layer of complexity. Each with its own topology, traffic patterns, and security assumptions. The complexity grew exponentially. And security followed, manually – more policies to author, more configurations to validate, more vendors to manage. The part that doesn’t show up in vendor presentations is that modern network security runs on institutional know-how. It lives in the […]

The post The Network Security Problem No One Could Solve – Until Now. appeared first on Check Point Blog.

Cyber security and operational resilience go hand-in-hand. Organizations have invested heavily in defending against breaches, ransomware, and service disruptions, building layered defenses designed to keep attackers out and systems running. But recent geopolitical developments are forcing a broader and more uncomfortable realization – the next major disruption may originate in the physical world rather than in code. As cloud infrastructure becomes more deeply embedded in the fabric of global economies and national systems, it is no longer just a platform for operations, but an extension of the attack surface. And it is this shift that introduces an entirely new category […]

Today’s enterprises demand Zero Trust security, everywhere. Cloud security teams require high-performance protection without the burden of managing firewalls at scale. For this reason, organizations are seeking managed network security solutions that reduce operational overhead while improving consistency, visibility, and prevention across complex multi-cloud environments. Responding to that demand, Check Point is continuing rollout of an AI-powered cloud firewall as a service now available for preview on Google Cloud, as well as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure.  There will be demos of the new firewall service at the Check Point Booth #3101 in the Google Next Solution Expo.  Check Point Cloud Firewall as a Service eliminates the complex overhead of managing firewall software infrastructure, giving busy DevOps and Security teams time to focus on policy management, compliance, and other strategic initiatives.   Continued Evolution of Cloud Firewalls  Cloud Firewall as a Service on Google Cloud marketplace delivers the power of Cloud Firewall (formerly Guard Network Security) with advanced threat prevention, AI-driven security intelligence, automated policy […]

In today’s multi-cloud world, businesses deploy workloads across dozens of public and private clouds, each with their own network topology, security controls, and operational quirks. Over time this flexibility comes at a cost of increasing complexity and risk. How can budget minded IT team sanely enforce complex security policies, prevent AI-powered cyber breaches by foreign entities, and maintain geographical compliance across such a diverse environment?  They can do so with a partner that leads with an open garden, agnostic approach. Check Point cloud firewalls, called CloudGuard Network Security, provide integrations across 22 leading public and private cloud vendors from AWS, […]
