Check Point Software Completes Acquisition of Perimeter 81

Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), a leading provider of cyber security solutions globally, today announced the completion of its acquisition of Perimeter 81, a pioneering Security Service Edge (SSE) company, with a team of over 200 employees that serves more than 3,000 customers worldwide. As hybrid work and cloud migration continue to be the norm, this acquisition reinforces Check Point’s dedication to ensuring fast and secure access for remote users, sites, datacenters, and the internet.
 

“Welcoming Perimeter 81 into the Check Point family fortifies our position in the SASE market,” stated Gil Shwed, CEO at Check Point Software Technologies. “Their unique suite, which offers Zero Trust Access, full mesh connectivity, and swift one-hour deployment, aligns perfectly with our vision of delivering the industry’s fastest, most secure SASE solution.”

Check Point Infinity, the industry’s only consolidated cybersecurity architecture, shields enterprises across networks, endpoints, cloud, and mobile devices.

The incorporation of Perimeter81 into Check Point Infinity will heighten security precautions from the initial development phase, pinpoint vulnerabilities, and guide the necessary rectifications.
