Robust Protection and Seamless Integration for Worry-Free Work

I like how it offers robust protection without interfering with daily work. It helps block phishing and malicious content while keeping email and collaboration tools running smoothly. The alerts are clear, and integration with platforms like Microsoft 365 makes centralized management easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, filtering can be too aggressive and block legitimate emails. It requires periodic adjustments to avoid missing important messages.

It helped us a lot with the problems of threats and unsafe content being transmitted via email on collaboration platforms. It helps prevent phishing, malware, and unauthorized account access by scanning and blocking suspicious messages before they reach users.

AI-driven protection has reduced phishing incidents and prevented advanced threats across collaboration tools
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is protecting cloud-based email and collaboration platforms, primarily Microsoft 365, from malware, phishing, and account takeover attempts.
I can provide a specific example of how I've used Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration to protect Microsoft 365 from phishing threats. The sales teams received a phishing email impersonating our boss in the sales department, asking them to approve different transfers. The message looked convincing, using internal branding and a spoofed domain that closely resembled our own, but Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration tagged the message immediately using AI-based intent analysis and domain spoofing detection, quarantining the email before it reached the user's inbox and sending an alarm to the support team.
In another situation, we had a case where a user shared a OneDrive link externally that unknowingly contained a file infected with a macro-based Trojan. Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration scanned the shared link and blocked the download in real time.
What is most valuable?
The best features Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration offers are AI-driven phishing protection, seamless API-based deployment, and coverage across both mail and collaboration platforms.
The AI phishing protection feature in Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration works quickly and effectively in the background, analyzing incoming messages daily using natural language processing and behavioral intent modeling. This means it does not just look at sender reputation or unknown URLs.
One of the most valuable aspects of Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is its broad coverage across both email and collaboration platforms, which sets it apart from traditional email-only security solutions.

What needs improvement?
Check Point could be improved by enhancing its reporting flexibility, streamlining policy customization, and expanding integration options with third-party platforms. These changes will make it even more adaptable for diverse enterprise needs.
Expanding third-party integration would be beneficial. When I integrate with Microsoft 365, support for other platforms like Slack or Dropbox is limited. Broader coverage would help organizations with mixed collaboration stacks.
