Detailed Review
Check Point treats DLP as a feature of several products. The administration guide for Harmony Email & Collaboration documents a DLP policy for outgoing and incoming mail, and the Harmony Endpoint page presents endpoint DLP and disk encryption.
The legal name on the documentation is Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., and its December 2025 SEC filing gives the principal office as 5 Shlomo Kaplan Street, Tel Aviv, Israel.
E-mail DLP policy
The e-mail policy filters outgoing mail so sensitive data does not reach unauthorised recipients, and can filter incoming mail so sensitive data is not stored in mailboxes. ZIP archives are scanned recursively.
Criteria and labels
Policies can use file type criteria and misdirected email prevention, and can use Microsoft Purview sensitivity labels. Sync times with Microsoft DLP are documented.
Endpoint and AI use
The Harmony Endpoint page lists advanced DLP and full disk encryption, and describes discovering which generative AI tools staff use with AI-powered data classification.
Limitations to Consider
DLP is spread over Harmony Email, Harmony Endpoint and Workspace Security pages, and the endpoint page is brief on how the engine works. Licence tiers and prices are not published on the pages reviewed. The country of the contracting entity per region could not be confirmed from the contract terms. A buyer looking for a single dedicated DLP console should compare Safetica.
Who Should Use Check Point
Organisations that already use Check Point for e-mail or endpoint protection and want DLP from the same vendor.
