Check Point vs. Abnormal Security:​ What to Consider Beyond Behavioral AI​

The future of email security depends on the intelligence behind it.​

Check Point Email Security is built on behavioral AI, not just content analysis or static rules. ThreatCloud AI brings together behavioral analysis, identity intelligence, language understanding, content, and global threat intelligence to identify sophisticated attacks and prevent them before they reach the inbox. ​ ​
While Abnormal has made behavioral AI central to its market positioning, behavioral intelligence is not an Abnormal-only capability. Check Point combines it with a broader prevention-first approach designed to protect users, inboxes, and AI-powered workflows.​

Three Questions Every Security Team Should Ask

01

How Broad Is the Intelligence Behind Your Email Security?

Behavioral analysis provides valuable insight into activity within an organization. However, many of today’s attacks are part of larger campaigns that span multiple organizations, identities, domains, and attack surfaces. Security teams should evaluate not only how a solution analyzes behavior, but also the breadth of threat intelligence it can apply before an attack reaches users.

02

Does Your Protection Extend Beyond the Inbox?

Email remains a primary attack vector, but it is no longer the only target. Attackers increasingly exploit collaboration platforms, cloud applications, identities, and AI-powered workflows. As AI agents gain access to email, documents, and business systems, threats can move beyond email to influence the systems that consume and act on enterprise data. Security teams should evaluate whether their protection strategy extends across the full workspace, including the AI-driven workflows that increasingly support business operations.

03

Can Your Security Protect AI Systems and Agents?

As AI agents gain access to email, documents, and business applications, attackers have a new target: the content these systems consume and act on. Email Agent Hijacking, prompt injection, and poisoned instructions can manipulate trusted AI systems before anomalous behavior is detected. Abnormal AI Cloud Security detects anomalous behavior and contains cloud breaches. Check Point Email Security is designed to stop malicious prompts, poisoned content, and hidden instructions before users or AI systems can interact with them.
