Comprehensive Security Against Ransomware
With cybercriminals targeting your weak links across your network, endpoint, mobile, browser, email & collaboration tools, it’s time to consider a cyber security strategy that covers all your bases.
Protect your Endpoint from Ransomware
To ensure business continuity, more and more companies have opened access to their corporate applications from laptops. This has rendered endpoint devices more vulnerable.

Protect against the growing wave of mobile ransomware
Mobile ransomware is on the rise. Today, when working from home, your workforce is increasingly using mobile devices to perform critical work tasks and share sensitive information. Once a mobile device is infected with malware, it can serve as an entry point to your organization’s most susceptible assets. Check Point Mobile Security is the only solution in the market with complete file protection, blocking malicious file downloads and scanning for malicious files in storage.
Block ransomware coming from email and collaboration apps
These days, 74% of organizations are using Office365 email and collaboration apps.
