Check Point named leader for AI-powered email security by GigaOm

Check Point Software Technologies has been named a leader and outperformer for its Harmony Email & Collaboration security solution in the latest GigaOm Radar for Anti-Phishing report.

GigaOm has recognised Check Point for its AI-first detection and enforcement capabilities, delivered in a single cohesive solution.

The evaluation process reviewed 16 leading anti-phishing providers, analysing a range of features and business considerations to aid organisations in selecting the best protection for their needs.

Check Point's Harmony Email & Collaboration received top marks in both emerging features and business criteria within the GigaOm Radar report.

According to GigaOm, the product's strengths include advanced defence against AI-driven phishing attacks, unification of cyber defence, straightforward deployment, streamlined management, and support for a diverse vendor environment, which together enable broad integration across customer systems.

"We're honoured to be recognised by GigaOm for our forward-looking roadmap and standout innovations," said Gil Friedrich, GM of Workspace Security at Check Point Software.

"This acknowledgment highlights our commitment to redefining threat prevention across every communication channel and endpoint. Harmony Email & Collaboration is a highly comprehensive platform that stops phishing, business email compromise, malware, and advanced threats before they ever reach users."

The GigaOm Radar for Anti-Phishing assesses a variety of criteria, including advanced technical features and the overall business value offered by each solution.

Check Point's Harmony Email & Collaboration reportedly stands out for its strong focus on both continued development and emerging threats, factors that contributed to its leader and outperformer status in the 2025 report.

Paul Stringfellow, Analyst at GigaOm, said: "Check Point was classified as an Outperformer due to its strong continued development and focus on emerging threats. It also delivered a comprehensive set of innovations, including Infinity AI Copilot and enhanced security with an extensive roadmap for continued development."

The GigaOm report specifically ranked Check Point as a leader in several categories:

Advanced threat intelligence

Check Point's solution utilises ThreatCloud AI's more than 300 machine learning features.

This technology analyses metadata, attachments, and behaviour patterns, with the ability to automatically block compromised accounts and to extend phishing protection to mobile devices.

Seamless ecosystem integration

Harmony Email & Collaboration is part of the Check Point Infinity Platform, allowing easy connection with a broad range of security tools, including third-party platforms. This connectivity enables automated threat response and supports continuity within existing customer security systems.

Flexible consumption

The solution is available in multiple configurations, with optional add-ons such as Incident Response as a Service, Security Awareness Training, DMARC Management, Browser Protection, and Email Archiving. These options allow organisations to customise their security package based on their specific requirements.

Check Point highlights that Harmony Email & Collaboration is designed to address a wide spectrum of threats, including phishing, business email compromise, malware, and advanced attack vectors.

The product aims to prevent such threats from reaching users, leveraging artificial intelligence and a comprehensive approach to security management.

The significance of robust anti-phishing defences has become particularly pronounced with the rise of AI-driven attacks targeting organisations via email and collaboration platforms.

Sophisticated detection and response solutions, such as those assessed in the GigaOm Radar, are increasingly sought by enterprises looking to mitigate evolving cyber threats in varied digital environments.

The GigaOm assessment also notes the importance of integration and operational simplicity for security teams.

By providing a centralised solution that fits into broader security architectures, Check Point aims to help organisations streamline operations while maintaining robust defences against both current and emerging threats.
