Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., a pioneer and global leader in cyber security solutions, today announced the launch of the Check Point Executive Advisory Board, bringing together leading experts across cyber security, artificial intelligence and enterprise technology to help guide the company’s strategy as organisations accelerate AI adoption and digital transformation.

“This is a defining moment in technology as organisations rapidly adopt artificial intelligence to transform how they operate, innovate and compete,” said Nadav Zafrir, CEO of Check Point Software Technologies. “AI is reshaping the cyber threat landscape just as quickly, which means security must evolve to protect new AI-driven environments. By bringing together this group of industry leaders, we are strengthening our ability to guide that transformation and ensure organisations can adopt AI securely and confidently.”

As artificial intelligence becomes embedded across enterprise operations, securing AI systems, data and infrastructure is emerging as one of the most critical cyber security challenges facing organisations today. The Executive Advisory Board will provide strategic insight on technology innovation, evolving threat dynamics and market priorities as Check Point continues to expand its AI-driven cyber security platform and strategy.

The board is spearheaded by Nadav Zafrir and will collaborate with Check Point leadership on key priorities including product strategy, innovation and global market expansion. Dave DeWalt, Founder and CEO of NightDragon, will co-chair the board and help engage experienced industry leaders and advisors to contribute strategic market perspectives.

“Check Point has played a foundational role in cyber security for decades,” said Dave DeWalt, Founder and CEO of NightDragon. “This Executive Advisory Board brings together experienced leaders from across cyber security and technology to help guide the company’s continued innovation and global growth.”

The announcement is being made during Leaders Point, Check Point’s executive gathering that convenes more than 50 CISOs from global organisations to discuss emerging cyber security challenges, digital resilience and the impact of AI on enterprise security.
