The expanded partnership places Check Point among a select group of security vendors cleared to bring OpenAI's defensive AI into the tools enterprises use every day

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., June 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:CHKP), a pioneer and global leader of cyber security solutions, today announced the use of OpenAI's frontier cyber capabilities into its customer-facing defenses. Through the OpenAI Daybreak Cyber Partner Program, open to only a select group of security vendors, Check Point can embed OpenAI models directly into the products, workflows, and managed services its customers rely on.

It marks a meaningful shift, from using these models internally to embedding them directly inside the defenses that protect customers, carrying the safety controls, abuse-prevention standards, and scoped outputs that enterprise security demands. The aim is to sharpen threat prevention, faster remediation, and stronger security operations, delivered through the products and services customers already rely on.

The threat landscape is being shaped by AI. Threat actors are using it to move faster, craft more convincing attacks, and find weaknesses at scale. Defenders need equivalent or stronger capabilities, delivered safely and within clear boundaries. The quality of the models powering defensive workflows has become a strategic variable, not a technical detail.

"Our partnership with OpenAI represents a shared commitment to putting highly advanced AI to work inside the Check Point defenses customers rely on. As one of a select group of security vendors chosen for the OpenAI Daybreak Cyber Partner Program, Check Point is uniquely positioned to bring frontier AI capabilities directly into the security solutions customers depend on every day. This is what it means to lead in AI-powered security: not just adopting new technology, but shaping how it gets built and deployed responsibly across the industry," said Roi Karo, Chief Strategy Officer at Check Point Software.

Through this expanded partnership, Check Point is identifying the defensive security workflows and solutions where OpenAI's trusted access for cyber models, paired with the right safeguards, can deliver measurable customer value.

Check Point and OpenAI are working together to help define the standards for using trusted access frontier AI responsibly in security, building protections against misuse and the controls to catch and stop it. The rollout is deliberately gradual: it begins with carefully controlled defensive uses and widens only as those protections prove themselves. This disciplined approach reflects how Check Point brings AI into its platform across the board, with the rigor and responsibility enterprise security demands.
