Check Point and AWS sign new multi-year deal to push AI security
Check Point and Amazon Web Services have signed a new multi-year Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) that centers on securing AI initiatives built on AWS. According to Check Point, the deal will bring its AI Defense Plane to AWS Marketplace and deepen integrations with Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore.
- Check Point and AWS signed a new multi-year Strategic Collaboration Agreement, building on the 2024 SCA.
- Check Point plans to bring its AI Defense Plane to AWS Marketplace using new AWS co-sell investments.
- Planned AI security work includes integrations with Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore.
- Check Point's 2026 Cloud Security Report: 77% of organizations updated security strategies for AI, only 26% can enforce them architecturally.
- Check Point says it has dozens of AWS integrations used by thousands of customers.
What the new agreement covers
The new SCA builds on a 2024 agreement between the two companies. According to Check Point, that earlier deal helped speed up customer access to its portfolio of AWS-ready security products, including Software-as-a-Service offerings sold through AWS Marketplace.
Under the latest agreement, Check Point says it will use new investments in the AWS co-sell program to bring its prevention-first security platform, including the AI Defense Plane, to AWS Marketplace. The stated aim is to make it easier for shared customers to discover, purchase and deploy security tools through a procurement channel they already know and trust.
Check Point describes the SCA as a framework that lets both companies deepen technical collaboration and deliver new capabilities to customers faster.
Focus on generative and agentic AI
The company frames the expansion around a shift in enterprise AI: as organizations move generative AI from experimentation into production, they need security controls that can keep pace with agentic workflows, sensitive data movement and fast-changing application architectures.
Check Point points to its own 2026 Cloud Security Report to illustrate the gap. The report found that 77% of organizations have updated their security strategies in response to AI, but only 26% say they have the architectural capability to enforce those strategies.
In addition to expanding its cloud integrations, Check Point says it will concentrate on AI security, including integrations with Amazon Bedrock, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and other AWS services. In the company's words, the value for customers is "security that is more closely aligned to the way modern applications, cloud services, and AI agents are being built and operated on AWS."
Existing integrations with AWS services
The partnership already has a technical base. Check Point says it has built dozens of integrations with AWS services to simplify deployment and improve security outcomes. According to the company, thousands of customers use its cloud security solutions alongside AWS services such as AWS Transit Gateway, AWS Cloud WAN and Amazon CloudFront.
Check Point argues that this integration footprint helps customers apply security consistently across distributed cloud environments while keeping operational complexity under control.
What it means for AWS customers
For organizations running AI workloads on AWS, the main practical change is procurement and integration. Check Point's platform, including the AI Defense Plane, is set to be available through AWS Marketplace, and the company plans closer ties to Bedrock and AgentCore, the AWS services used to build and run AI applications and agents.
The source does not give a timeline for specific new features or pricing. Check Point says only that 2026 is a defining year for the partnership and that it wants to help customers adopt AI "with greater confidence, stronger controls" and security built for how cloud-native and agentic workloads behave. The company will also be at AWS re:Invent 2026, Booth 1760.
