Check Point and Nvidia Partners on AI Cloud Protect

Check Point Software has announced AI Cloud Protect, an integrated security solution focused on securing AI factories powered by Nvidia.

AI Cloud Protect works with zero impact on performance and can be used by enterprises to securely develop AI models, agentic AI applications and inference workloads.

The tool is built with Nvidia BlueField technology and has been validated using the Nvidia RTX PRO Server.

“As enterprises race to build AI-driven innovation, they can’t afford blind spots,” said Nataly Kremer, Chief Product Officer at Check Point. 

“With Nvidia, we’re making AI factories secure by design—protecting models, data, and infrastructure without slowing innovation.”

Why is AI Cloud Protect needed?

Check Point data shows that one in every 80 Gen AI prompts exposes sensitive data.

According to a Gartner report, 32% of organisations experienced AI attacks involving prompt manipulation, while 29% faced attacks targeting their GenAI infrastructure.

AI factories introduce unique security challenges due to their wide attack surfaces, exposing them to jailbreaking, model poisoning and prompt injection attacks.

Additional risks include data leaks from shadow AI, the unauthorised AI use by employees.

As more enterprises deploy AI, full stack security coverage across cloud environments has become unavoidable.

With AI Cloud Protect, this protection is delivered without performance compromise unlike its traditional counterparts.

“Security is essential for the next generation of AI infrastructure,” said David Reber, the chief security officer at Nvidia. 

“Nvidia is working with Check Point to integrate BlueField acceleration and the Nvidia DOCA Argus runtime security framework into the AI Cloud Protect platform to help enterprises deploy AI confidently.”

What does AI Cloud Protect offer?

Using the Nvidia BlueField-4 DPU, AI Cloud Protect provides 6x compute power and 2x network throughput, making it easier to build scalable and secure AI.

With its network level protection, it secures the AI infrastructure from unauthorized access, data poisoning and model exfiltration.

It also helps provide visibility to all processes running on AI nodes making it easier to spot malicious activity.

Nadav Zafrir, the CEO of Check Point noted his thoughts on teaming up with Nvidia saying: "This partnership is important because by running on the chip level.. we can not only protect better, we can do it more efficiently and effectively in terms of latency and time.”

As enterprises move to operationalise AI, security must evolve at the same pace.

AI Cloud Protect positions Check Point and Nvidia to offer performance-preserving, full stack defence for AI development environments, helping ensure innovation can scale without compromising safety.
