How Check Point’s AI-Powered Phishing SIM is Reshaping Security Awareness

Written by Shira Landau | May 2, 2025

More than 90% of cyber attacks start with a malicious email. Although security leaders need to invest heavily in technical controls, they also need to attend to the human element of security, which is easily exploited.  
 
Despite the best of intentions, even the most vigilant professionals may inadvertently compromise security. When under pressure and handling competing priorities, employees may interact with phishing threats or unintentionally disclose sensitive information. 
 
Check Point’s Harmony Email & Collaboration product aims to stop this trend through advanced phishing simulation offerings; groundbreaking approaches that leverage AI to deliver hyper-personalized security awareness training based on real-world threats. 

Check Point’s innovative solution eliminates administrative overhead while providing unprecedented effectiveness through automation and intelligence-driven design.

Strategic Advantages for Security Leaders 
 
Zero Configuration, Zero Maintenance 

Harmony Email & Collaboration’s phishing simulation eliminates configuration requirements in entirety. Contrast that with competing solutions that burden security teams with template creation and campaign management.  
 
With Harmony Email & Collaboration, phishing simulations are generated automatically – without administrative intervention. This enables CISOs to deploy effective security awareness training without diverting precious security resources.  
 
Hyper-Personalization Driven by Threat Intelligence 

Our AI-powered phishing simulation analyzes actual attacks affecting your organization, transforming them into personalized training opportunities for your employees.  
 
The system examines: 

  • Services specific to your environment (OneDrive, Teams, etc.) 
  • Communication patterns within your organization 
  • Previously blocked attacks that attempted to reach your users 

This approach ensures that employees are trained against the precise threat vectors that are most likely to target them – not generic scenarios that are outdated or irrelevant to your organization’s risk profile.  
 
Injection-Based Delivery for Superior Performance 
 
Harmony Email & Collaboration’s Phishing Simulation leverages an advanced injection methodology in place of traditional SMTP delivery. This approach eliminates common deliverability challenges that plague other platforms, ensuring that training reaches all intended recipients in a timely manner.  
 
Operational Excellence 
 
Comprehensive Awareness Curricula 
 
The platform extends beyond phishing simulations to deliver a complete security awareness program. The program includes: 

  • Concise, animated video modules optimized for retention (5-7 minutes each) 
  • Real-world case studies demonstrating security principles 
  • Interactive assessments to verify knowledge acquisition 
  • Critical compliance topics, including GDPR and safe AI practices 

Enterprise-Grade Access Controls 
 
Security awareness is an organization-wide initiative. Harmony Email & Collaboration’s role-based access control system allows program management to be distributed appropriately while maintaining security boundaries.  
 
For example, HR teams can track completion metrics, but won’t receive detailed technical information about security threats. Department heads can monitor team progress without getting into the deadly details either. Meanwhile, security teams can retain full control of the technical configuration. 
 
Easy Ecosystem Integration 
 
As part of Check Point’s unified security architecture, Harmony Email & Collaboration’s phishing simulation integrates seamlessly with existing security infrastructure. 
 
Organizations that are already leveraging Check Point’s solutions will gain immediate visibility through a consolidated dashboard. No additional deployments required.  
 
Measurable Outcomes 
 
Compliance Assurance  
 
Meeting regulatory requirements, like HIPAA and PCI-DSS, and qualifying for cyber insurance often demand that organizations conduct regular phishing simulations and document security awareness training. 
 
Harmony Email’s simulation capability streamlines compliance validation, providing the evidence required for audits while improving a given organization’s security posture. 
 
Immediate Intervention and Learning 
 
When employees interact with phishing simulations – whether clicking links, responding to emails or scanning QR codes – they receive immediate feedback through customized landing pages. These interventions transform potential security incidents into teachable moments – reducing vulnerability through point-of-failure education. 
 
Strategic Roadmap 

From Awareness to Resilience 
 
Security awareness isn’t merely about checking a compliance box – it’s about building organizational resilience against the most prevalent attack vector.  
 
Check Point’s Harmony Email & Collaboration Phishing Simulation shifts security awareness from an administrative burden into a strategic advantage through automation, personalization and integration.  
 
Your organization needs phishing simulations that are as sophisticated and adaptive as the threats that they face. Check Point delivers a solution that doesn’t just simulate attacks. Rather, it prepares your workforce for the specific threats that are targeting your organization right now.
