Check Point Email Security is Check Point Software Technologies' email and collaboration security product, built on the technology Check Point acquired when it bought Avanan in 2021. It connects to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace through an API rather than sitting in front of mail flow as a traditional secure email gateway, so it does not require an MX record change, and it extends the same API-based scanning to collaboration apps including Slack, Microsoft Teams, Box and Dropbox. Because it reads content after the platform's own filtering rather than intercepting it beforehand, it can catch phishing and account takeover attempts that only become malicious after delivery. It suits MSPs and IT teams who want an additional layer behind Microsoft's or Google's native filtering rather than a full gateway replacement, and who need to deploy quickly across many client tenants without reconfiguring mail routing for each one.
Check Point publishes four tiers rather than a fixed price: Email Only or Email & Collaboration, each available as Advanced Protect (phishing and account takeover protection, URL emulation, sandboxing and content disarm and reconstruction) or Complete Protect, which adds data loss prevention. Add-ons include archiving, DMARC management, incident response as a service and AI-driven phishing awareness training. None of this carries a published price; an MSP gets a quote through a Check Point partner, though Check Point does offer a 14-day free trial on request (checked September 2026). Email Security integrates natively with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, the platforms it protects, plus Slack, Microsoft Teams, Box and Dropbox for organisations securing collaboration tools beyond email, and it feeds alerts into SIEM tooling and Check Point's own Harmony security suite for shops already running Check Point network or endpoint products. Check Point is headquartered in Israel and was founded in 1993. MSPs evaluating it should check whether a client's existing Microsoft or Google filtering already covers most of the risk, since it is positioned as a second layer rather than a first line of defence, confirm which tier and add-ons a quote actually includes, and confirm how it is licensed and billed by their chosen Check Point partner.

No. Check Point Email Security connects to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace through an API rather than sitting in front of mail flow as a gateway, so it does not require changing MX records or rerouting mail. This makes it faster to deploy across many client tenants than a traditional secure email gateway, since there is no mail flow change to plan and test.
Check Point Email Security is built on the product Check Point acquired when it bought Avanan in 2021. Check Point renamed the product to Check Point Email Security in March 2026, moving away from the Harmony brand name, so an MSP looking for 'Avanan' or 'Harmony Email & Collaboration' today should look for Check Point Email Security instead. It is sold and supported through Check Point's partner network.
No. Check Point Email Security is designed to sit alongside the native filtering already built into Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, scanning content after it has passed that first layer to catch phishing and account takeover attempts that only become malicious after delivery. MSPs keep the platform's own filtering active and add this as a second, API-based layer rather than switching it off.
Check Point does not publish prices for Email Security. It is sold as four tiers, Email Only or Email & Collaboration, each as Advanced Protect or the higher Complete Protect (which adds data loss prevention), plus optional paid add-ons for archiving, DMARC management, incident response as a service and AI-driven phishing awareness training. An MSP needs a quote from a Check Point partner to see actual pricing, though a 14-day free trial is available on request.
Check Point Email Security is sold and quoted exclusively through Check Point partners and resellers, not direct to end customers as a self-service purchase. An MSP typically becomes a Check Point partner, or works through a distributor that is one, to get pricing, provision the product and bill it on to clients.
