Check Point named Frost visionary in risk platform

Check Point has been named a Visionary Leader in Frost & Sullivan's Frost Radar for Enterprise Risk Mitigation and Management Platforms, one of five businesses placed in that category.

It also received the highest Growth Index score among the 15 platforms assessed in the report, Frost & Sullivan said.

The ranking focuses on Check Point's exposure management offering, which combines attack surface management, cyber threat intelligence and digital risk protection in a single platform. The system is designed to connect risk visibility with prioritisation and remediation so security teams can reduce exposures rather than simply identify them.

Frost & Sullivan said the market for enterprise risk mitigation and management is shifting towards integrated platforms that link threat intelligence with exposure data and action. The change comes as companies face shorter response windows while attackers exploit weaknesses more quickly.

Check Point cited findings from its 2026 Exposure Gap Report showing that vulnerabilities more than doubled as a share of critical exposures over a year, rising from 18.7% to 42.6%. It presented the figures as evidence that organisations are struggling to keep up with fragmented risk management tools.

Platform focus

The assessment identified four areas behind the recognition: threat intelligence, exposure prioritisation, remediation and interoperability with external technology providers.

On threat intelligence, Check Point said it draws on ThreatCloud AI, telemetry from millions of enforcement points and dark web collection to correlate external threats, exposures, weak controls and attacker behaviour in a single view. For exposure prioritisation, it said it extends asset visibility through internal and external attack surface management, cyber asset attack surface management and validation tools to help organisations identify the most urgent risks.

The remediation element focuses on automation and safety checks so teams can address weaknesses without disrupting day-to-day operations. The interoperability element reflects integrations across hundreds of IT and security suppliers, allowing customers to use existing controls as compensating measures rather than replace them.

That combination matters in a market where buyers increasingly want operational follow-through, not just dashboards. Frost & Sullivan said Check Point's growth strategy emphasises measurable risk reduction and execution across identification, prioritisation and remediation.

Danielle VanZandt, Research Director and Program Manager at Frost & Sullivan, described that approach directly. "Check Point's actions reflect a coherent strategy to build the most comprehensive closed-loop ERMM platform, spanning discovery, intelligence, prioritization, and execution within a single platform architecture," said Danielle VanZandt, Research Director and Program Manager at Frost & Sullivan. "By integrating mature product lines under a unified platform, Check Point creates a durable competitive differentiator that cannot be easily replicated."

Broader pressure

The recognition comes as cyber security vendors push to show their products can help companies make practical decisions faster amid more frequent and automated attacks. Exposure management has become a key area of competition as security teams try to determine which weaknesses present immediate business risk and which can wait.

Check Point said artificial intelligence is reducing the time available to close exposure gaps, increasing pressure on security operations. That backdrop has driven greater interest in tools that combine discovery, intelligence and remediation in one workflow.

Alongside the Visionary Leader designation, Check Point said it also received Frost & Sullivan's Best Practises Customer Value Leadership Recognition in the global enterprise risk mitigation and management platform industry. The additional recognition underlines how vendors are increasingly judged not only on technical breadth but also on whether customers can use existing infrastructure more effectively.

Yochai Corem, General Manager of Exposure Management at Check Point, said the ranking reflected the company's direction in this part of the market. "Being named a Visionary Leader validates our strategy of bringing exposure management, threat intelligence, and automated remediation together in a single operational platform," said Yochai Corem, General Manager of Exposure Management at Check Point. "Organisations don't just want to understand risk anymore, they want to reduce it continuously. The future of cyber security is mitigating in AI speed, helping security teams prioritise what matters most and remediate exposures safely at enterprise scale."
