Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., a global leader in cyber security solutions, and ControlPlane, a specialist in AI Security and DevSecOps consultancy, today announced a strategic partnership to enable enterprises to securely adopt and scale Large Language Models (LLMs) and agentic AI systems. The collaboration combines Check Point’s AI-native threat prevention platform with ControlPlane’s expertise in cloud native architectures and DevSecOps practices.
This framework addresses the growing “AI readiness gap” as organizations transition from AI experimentation to production deployment. It provides comprehensive, regulator-ready protections to mitigate emerging risks such as prompt injection, unauthorized access, data leakage, and model misuse, allowing businesses to innovate confidently without compromising security or compliance.
As enterprises push AI initiatives into production, traditional security controls fall short against AI-specific threats. The partnership delivers a lifecycle approach to AI security, embedding protections from design through deployment and ongoing operations.
ControlPlane has successfully implemented Check Point’s platform in a highly regulated financial services setting, securing AI workloads handling more than three million prompts per day. This deployment demonstrates the ability to meet stringent governance, data protection, and regulatory standards while preserving rapid development cycles and enabling responsible AI use.
The collaboration focuses on securing Kubernetes-based AI workloads, where the majority of modern AI systems are deployed. ControlPlane’s specialized knowledge in cloud native security complements Check Point’s platform to provide end-to-end protection across the AI lifecycle—including training, inference, and agentic orchestration.
This integrated approach ensures security is built in from the start, rather than added as an afterthought, helping organizations maintain trust, compliance, and governance as they scale AI capabilities.
“Agentic AI systems must be secured by design and protected throughout their entire lifecycle—not retrofitted after incidents occur,” said Andrew Martin, Founder and CEO of ControlPlane. “AI workloads are overwhelmingly deployed on Kubernetes, and our team brings unmatched expertise in securing these environments. Through this partnership, enterprises can accelerate AI delivery with confidence, knowing security is embedded from day one rather than acting as a constraint.”
“Enterprises are embracing AI to drive productivity, automate decisions, and transform operations, but this adoption is expanding the attack surface at an unprecedented pace,” said David Haber, VP of AI Agent Security at Check Point Software. “Together with ControlPlane, we help organizations operationalize AI securely across cloud native environments. Check Point’s AI-native platform protects every phase of the AI lifecycle—from training and inference to agentic orchestration—so customers can innovate faster while maintaining strong security, compliance, and governance.”
By combining these strengths, the partnership equips enterprises to bridge the gap between AI ambition and secure execution, turning potential risks into controlled, scalable advantages.
