Anti-Ransomware
Stop ransomware before encryption begins with behavior-based detection, automated response and instant file rollback.
Overview
Ransomware is now an industrial supply chain — initial access brokers, crypter services and RaaS operators — with double extortion turning backups into a partial answer at best. A single successful encryption event can halt production, orders and customer service far beyond the ransom itself.
Check Point takes a prevention-first approach: ThreatCloud AI correlates live intelligence from hundreds of thousands of gateways and endpoints, while behavioural analytics spot the precursors of encryption — mass file rewrites, shadow copy deletion, credential theft — and block them before encryption starts. Content Disarm and Reconstruction strips executable structures from documents so weaponised attachments cannot run.
Gateways inspect SMB and RPC lateral-movement channels while Harmony Endpoint blocks encryption behaviour, process injection and credential dumping, automatically quarantining infected hosts. GSAFE supports the full cycle: ransomware risk assessment, policy tuning, attack simulation and incident response.
Key capabilities
- Real-time detection and blocking of encryption behavior
- Automated file rollback and endpoint forensics
- Attack-chain prevention across phishing, exploits and lateral movement
- Minute-level recovery that cuts downtime and ransom costs
