The story

Founded by Gil Shwed, Marius Nacht and Shlomo Kramer in 1993, in Ramat Gan.1

Check Point was established in Ramat Gan, Israel in 1993 by Gil Shwed, Marius Nacht and Shlomo Kramer. Shwed had the initial idea for the company's core technology known as stateful inspection, which became the foundation for the company's first product, FireWall-1; soon afterwards, they also developed one of the world's first VPN products, VPN-1. Shwed developed the idea while serving in the Unit 8200 of the Israel Defense Forces, where he worked on securing classified networks.

Initial funding of US$250,000 was provided by venture capital fund BRM Group.

In 1994, Check Point signed an OEM agreement with Sun Microsystems, followed by a distribution agreement with HP in 1995.

By February 1996, the company was named "Worldwide Firewall Market Leader" by IDC, with a market share of 40 percent. In June 1996, Check Point raised $67 million from its initial public offering on NASDAQ.

In 1998, Check Point established a partnership with Nokia, which bundled Check Point's Software with Nokia's computer Network Security Appliances.

In 2003, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Check Point over violation of the Securities Exchange Act by failing to disclose major financial information.

Check Point acquired Nokia's network security business unit in 2009.

In 2018, the company discovered "AdultSwine" malware programmed into around 60 apps on the Google Play Store, primarily those aimed at children. The bug would display pornographic ads that, when clicked on, would instruct victims to download more malicious software in an attempt to steal personal data. It was estimated that between 3 and 7 million users may have been infected.

In 2019, researchers at Check Point found a security breach in Xiaomi phone apps. The security flaw was reported preinstalled.

As of December 2023, Check Point Software continues to operate in Russia, selling its cybersecurity products in the country. Despite the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the company has maintained its office in Moscow and has faced criticism for its decision to remain active in Russia.

In December 2024, Gil Shwed moved to become Executive Chairman of the Board of Check Point. Nadav Zafrir joined Check Point as the new Chief Executive Officer. In February 2026, together with its 2025 results, Check Point announced the acquisitions of three Israeli startups, Cyata, Cyclops and Rotate. No financial terms were disclosed; Globes cited market estimates of more than $150 million. In May 2026 it acquired the team and technology of Deepchecks, an Israeli AI evaluation startup.

Products

Quantum Force Firewalls

Quantum is Check Point’s line of network firewalls. Quantum Remote Access VPN provides remote access to an organization’s network resources.

According to Check Point, Quantum Force firewalls block malicious traffic, and its AI Security Management can respond automatically when threats are identified.

Harmony

Harmony is a cloud security platform that combines firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS), secure web gateway, zero-trust network access (ZTNA), SaaS protection, and SD-WAN. According to Check Point, it uses the company’s ThreatCloud AI to detect malware, phishing and anomalous behavior.

According to the press, the hybrid security architecture, combining on-device and cloud-based protections, is designed to improve access speed, support reliable connectivity, and enhance visibility into SaaS applications.

CloudGuard

CloudGuard is Check Point’s cloud security product line, covering applications, networks and workloads.

According to Check Point, CloudGuard Network Security protects against network evasion techniques.

CloudGuard WAF is a web application firewall that Check Point says uses contextual AI rather than signatures to block attacks, including exploits of the Log4j and MOVEit vulnerabilities.

A partnership between Check Point and cloud security provider Wiz, announced in February 2025, replaces CloudGuard CNAPP with Wiz’s offering inside the CloudGuard suite.

Infinity External Risk Management

Infinity External Risk Management is a product that monitors for external threats such as credential theft, fraud and brand impersonation. Check Point integrated Veriti, which it acquired in 2025, into the platform.

Check Point Research

The Check Point research team consists of over 200 analysts and researchers cooperating with other security vendors, law enforcement and various CERTs. Their data sources include open sources, the ThreatCloud AI network and dark web intelligence.

In 2020, the Check Point Research team uncovered multiple vulnerabilities in the TikTok app that exposed users to having personal information scraped from their profile, including their phone number and profile settings. That information could have been used to manipulate users' account details and build a database of TikTok users for malicious activity. The company notified TikTok and a fix was deployed to solve this.

In mid-2025, Check Point Research identified six Windows vulnerabilities, including one rated as critical, which could crash systems, allow attackers to run malicious code, or expose sensitive data. The flaws were privately reported to Microsoft under a responsible disclosure process and Microsoft issued fixes for the vulnerability in August.
