Guardz and Check Point Partner to Simplify Email Security and Streamline MSP Operations

Guardz has partnered with Check Point Software to embed Harmony Email directly into its cybersecurity platform for MSPs. The collaboration brings advanced, AI-driven email protection into the Guardz interface, helping service providers stop phishing, business email compromise, and ransomware threats before they reach user inboxes.

“Embedding Check Point Harmony Email into Guardz's unified platform creates a streamlined, all-in-one solution that simplifies threat detection and response for MSPs,” said Dor Eisner, CEO and Co-Founder of Guardz, told Channel E2E.

“By offering email security alongside endpoint, identity, and data protection in a single platform, MSPs can eliminate the need to manage multiple, siloed security solutions. This reduces vendor sprawl, cuts down on operational complexity, reduces alert fatigue, and improves incident response times.”

Email remains one of the most exploited entry points for attackers targeting small and midsize businesses. Phishing and social engineering tactics continue to evolve with the help of generative AI, outpacing traditional filters and forcing MSPs to rethink their layered defenses. The Guardz-Check Point partnership takes a preventive approach by integrating Check Point’s inline, API-based protection engine directly into Guardz’s unified platform, enabling real-time detection and response at scale.

Unified Protection for the Modern MSP

Through this partnership, MSPs can now provision, deploy, and manage Check Point Harmony Email directly through the Guardz interface - alongside endpoint and identity security. The integration not only improves coverage across attack vectors but also ensures that every incident is tracked and contained earlier, preventing lateral spread.

Eisner explained that what differentiates this collaboration from typical integrations is its depth and simplicity. “Unlike other platforms, which may only offer light integration, Guardz embeds Check Point's email protection capabilities directly within its AI-native cybersecurity platform,” he said. “This deep integration ensures that MSPs can deploy and manage email security effortlessly alongside other critical protections in a single dashboard.”

He added that the partnership also strengthens how Guardz’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service connects email risks to broader identity-based attack chains. “This partnership enhances our unique ability to connect email risk, deeply tied to identities, into our 24/7 MDR—where expert analysts and AI automations can track and respond as an attack progresses.”

Expanding Reach in the MSP and SMB Market

The collaboration also extends Check Point’s presence in the MSP and SMB market, making enterprise-grade protection more accessible through Guardz’s unified platform. “By consolidating multiple security technologies into one deeply integrated platform, Guardz and Check Point are enabling MSPs to help smaller businesses achieve multi-layered protection efficiently, without the operational complexity or resource burden that can make advanced security difficult to adopt,” Eisner noted.

This model aligns with a growing industry trend toward consolidation and simplicity. MSPs are under increasing pressure to deliver enterprise-grade protection with limited teams and budgets, and Guardz’s integration-driven approach directly addresses that challenge.

Responding to AI-Driven Threats with Unified Intelligence

As phishing and business email compromise campaigns become more sophisticated through the use of AI, MSPs need tools that evolve just as quickly. Eisner said the Guardz–Check Point partnership gives them that agility.

“The combined Guardz–Check Point approach provides MSPs with an advanced, AI-powered defense system capable of identifying and neutralizing emerging threats before they can impact clients,” he explained.

He added that the partnership delivers both power and simplicity.

“By utilizing real-time knowledge sharing between Guardz's unified platform and Check Point’s robust threat intelligence, MSPs can stay ahead of cybercriminals while reducing operational complexity. Since Guardz technology efficiently connects the dots across attack vectors, this partnership facilitates a true multi-layered security solution within a single platform.”
