Check Point Software, a leading AI-powered cyber security platform provider, has unveiled the Infinity AI Copilot, a groundbreaking innovation that brings AI-powered efficiency and collaboration to cyber security management across platforms. This first-generation AI Copilot addresses the global shortage of cyber security practitioners by enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of security teams.
The Infinity AI Copilot marks a new era of cyber security, where human-machine collaboration takes center stage. By harnessing the power of AI and cloud technologies, Check Point aims to enable security teams to work in harmony with AI, unlocking unprecedented efficiency and accuracy and seamlessly integrating security into every organization’s operations.
Cyber security continues to be a critical challenge, with a surge of 90% in ransomware attacks in 2023 and organizations facing an average of 60,000 cyber attacks throughout the year. At the same time, there is a shortage of skilled cyber security professionals globally. In this scenario, securing networks and data effectively can be difficult and stressful. The Infinity AI Copilot, trained on 30 years of end-to-end cyber security intelligence, serves as a powerful assistant to security teams. Leveraging Generative AI (GenAI), it automates complex security tasks, provides proactive solutions to security threats, and significantly reduces the time required for routine tasks. This empowers security teams to allocate more time to strategic innovation. Moreover, the AI Copilot seamlessly integrates across the Check Point Infinity Platform, offering a unified security experience from endpoint to network to cloud and beyond.
Key capabilities of the Infinity AI Copilot include accelerating security administration by saving up to 90% of the time required for administrative work, managing and deploying security policies specific to each customer’s needs, improving incident mitigation and response through AI-powered threat hunting, analysis, and resolution, overseeing all solutions and environments within the Check Point Infinity Platform, and utilizing natural language processing for seamless interaction between users and AI Copilot GenAI.
As organizations face an expanding threat landscape and a cyber security talent shortage, leveraging AI to drive better security outcomes has become a priority for CISOs. Check Point Infinity AI Copilot aims to deliver improved cyber security outcomes by reducing the time needed for security administrator tasks and enhancing security through improved security policies, threat hunting, and remediation, said Frank Dickson, Group Vice President, Security & Trust at IDC.
Unlike some existing AI solutions in the market, the Infinity AI Copilot provides comprehensive coverage across various security aspects and extends beyond threat analysis to include IT and access policy management. It stands out for its availability and practical application, setting it apart from conceptual solutions offered by competitors.
The Infinity AI Copilot is currently available in preview, with a full launch expected in the second quarter. Future developments will include proactive assistance and autonomous policy management features.
