My #CheckPoint colleagues from #CheckMates launching a new 5-part special series within #AI Security Masters: Ready or Not: Securing the AI Enterprise.
Anyone in your organization can now spin up an #AIagent in minutes, connected to real systems, real data, authorized to act on the business's behalf.
Agents are proliferating faster than security teams can track them – and any one of them can be compromised through the data it ingests, the tools it connects to, or the prompts it receives.
In Episode 1: AI Agent Security, we’ll explore end-to-end agent security in practice, including visibility across your AI estate, posture assessment, and runtime enforcement.

AI Security Masters E8 - Claude Mythos: New Era in Cyber Security
Join #CheckPoint #CheckMates on May 19th at 5 PM CET for an exciting session on #Claude #Mythos, where we'll discuss what happens when #AI moves from assistant to autonomous security operator.
The Claude Mythos model represents a new class of AI-driven capability, where large language models evolve beyond chat and into active participants in cybersecurity workflows. With expanded context windows, advanced reasoning, and increasing autonomy, models like Claude are beginning to reshape how security teams uncover threats, analyze vulnerabilities, and respond at scale.
In this webinar, you'll explore how the Claude Mythos approach pushes the boundaries of what AI can do in cybersecurity, from accelerating the discovery of previously unknown vulnerabilities to enabling more adaptive, self-directed defense strategies.

From #CheckPoint #CheckMates: Last Chance to Register for The State Of Ransomware Q1 2026
Join CheckMates as they welcome back Check Point Research to the TechTalk stage to discuss #ransomware, which remains one of the most disruptive cyber risks organizations face. The way attacks are executed is changing. In Q1 2026, ransomware activity continued at high levels while consolidating around a smaller number of highly capable groups. This shift is increasing the impact of individual incidents and reshaping how organizations should assess and manage risk.
In this session, Check Point Research will present key insights from the State of Ransomware Q1 2026 report, followed by a practical discussion on how security teams can apply these findings to reduce exposure and business impact. Attendees will gain both strategic context and actionable guidance on defending against modern ransomware operations.

From #CheckPoint #CheckMates:
Business Email Compromise (BEC) remains one of the most effective and costly attack vectors, exploiting human behavior and bypassing traditional email security controls. Once a user engages, attackers move fast, making detection alone insufficient to prevent impact.
Join my colleagues for a live webinar featuring Christian Crawford and Jesse Weeks, Security Engineers from Check Point's Workspace Security team, as they reveal how AI-driven email security detects and prevents BEC attacks in real time, without relying on manual intervention.
- What makes BEC one of the most effective and costly attack vectors
- How to reduce response time without increasing operational complexity
- Why AI-driven email security is necessary to detect and prevent BEC attacks
