Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), a pioneer and global leader of cyber security solutions, today announced it has been named as a Recommended vendor in the NSS Labs 2025 Enterprise Firewall Comparative Report, with the highest security effectiveness score. Achieving an outstanding 99.59% overall security effectiveness rating, including 99.91% exploit coverage and complete protection from evasion strategies. As AI redefines cyber threats, NSS Labs recognition highlights Check Point’s leadership in prevention-first security, with its network security firewall outperforming all competitors in security effectiveness.

“Check Point has maintained an extraordinary level of consistency in their security effectiveness over the years,” said Vikram Phatak, CEO, NSS Labs, “Check Point’s network security firewall should be on every buyer’s short list.”

The NSS Labs enterprise firewall test evaluated vendors against real-world attack techniques and enterprise workloads. With AI accelerating the pace and sophistication of cyber attacks, which are up 44% year-over-year, the need for prevention-first security has never been greater.. The wide gap between Check Point’s superior results and other vendors underscores its leadership in stopping threats before they impact business operations, ensuring continuity and resilience.

“These benchmark results reflect our relentless focus on security effectiveness. We are proud that our network security firewall outperformed every competitor in reliability and stability, setting the standard for prevention-first security,” said Eyal Manor, VP of Product. “Check Point keeps organizations ahead of attackers with AI-driven protection across their hybrid environments.”

The Results Speak for Themselves:

• 99.59% overall security effectiveness- the highest in the industry
• 99.28% malware block rate and 99.91% exploit block rate
• 35% false positive accuracy
• 100% exploit evasion resistance
• 100% resilience during prolonged attacks & high load conditions

Product Reliability & Stability
NSS Labs tested firewall resilience during prolonged attacks and high-load situations to ensure consistent policy enforcement and protection. Check Point achieved 100% firewall evasion resistance. Through its evaluation, NSS Labs also referenced CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerability (KEV) tracking, where Check Point experienced only 1 vulnerability in the same period that the other leading vendors had 10X – 23X more exploited product vulnerabilities. Hence, Check Point’s network security firewall ensures the highest product integrity against being breached and eliminates the need for constant emergency patches. This reduces enterprise security risk and lowers their cost of ownership.

This recognition adds to Check Point’s growing list of third-party validations. In the 2025 Miercom Enterprise and Hybrid Mesh Firewall Security Report, Check Point was also named the top provider, further validating its commitment to delivering best-in-class, prevention-first cyber security.
