How Check Point accelerates vulnerability research with Daybreak

OpenAI
Check Point uses OpenAI's Daybreak to reduce vulnerability research from hours to minutes, accelerating threat protection for over 100,000 organizations.

Summary

Check Point, which secures over 100,000 organizations through its security products, has partnered with OpenAI as part of the Daybreak Defense Network to dramatically accelerate vulnerability research. According to CTO Jonathan Zanger, the company previously required hours to analyze newly disclosed vulnerabilities and translate findings into security signatures or indicators of compromise, with capacity constrained by the number of available analysts. By leveraging OpenAI Daybreak's frontier cyber models, Check Point can now complete this workflow in minutes instead of hours. The models can understand vulnerabilities, analyze attack patterns, scan code to identify gaps, and reason about complex code and configurations. Beyond vulnerability research, Check Point is also collaborating with OpenAI to develop an Agentic Network Security Orchestration solution that would combine continuous monitoring with human approval for consequential actions. The approach would allow customers to set security objectives while the system explains findings, recommended actions, and associated risks. Check Point's next priority is remediation—using Daybreak's capabilities to help security teams more effectively address identified gaps, ultimately aiming for more autonomous, real-time threat prevention.
