The capability integrates AI-specific inspection directly into existing firewall infrastructure, targeting three areas: employee AI tool usage (including shadow AI discovery and sensitive data classification), AI agent and MCP traffic visibility and access control, and inline inspection of LLM traffic to block prompt injection and adversarial inputs. Research from Check Point's AI Security Report 2026 underpins the launch, citing that 87–93% of organizations experience high-risk generative AI interactions monthly, sensitive data in prompts doubled year-on-year, and security weaknesses were found in 40% of 10,000 MCP servers reviewed. The feature extends Check Point's broader AI Defense Plane and integrates with SASE, SD-WAN, and third-party micro-segmentation tools like Illumio. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
