Check Point uses OpenAI Daybreak for vulnerability research

According to OpenAI, Check Point is using OpenAI Daybreak to speed up the research behind new security protections and turn vulnerability intelligence into customer defenses faster.

As part of the OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network, Check Point uses the platform to reduce its vulnerability research workflow from hours to minutes, according to Jonathan Zanger, CTO of Check Point. OpenAI states the system gives defenders access to its frontier cyber models that analyze vulnerabilities, reason through attack paths, and identify security gaps in code and configurations.

According to OpenAI, Check Point provides security products across AI, workspace, cloud, and network domains to over 100,000 organizations. The company's research team investigates emerging vulnerabilities and translates findings into security signatures or indicators of compromise that systems use to recognize threats. Previously, this research capacity was constrained by the number of expert analysts available.

Beyond research, Check Point is working with OpenAI to develop an Agentic Network Security Orchestration solution using Daybreak. According to Zanger, this approach would combine continuous monitoring of customer environments with defined operating boundaries and human approval for consequential actions. Customers would set security objectives while the system would explain findings, recommended actions, and associated risks. With research taking minutes, Check Point's next priority is remediation to help security teams address identified gaps.
