Global technology solutions provider - Arrow Electronics is set to incorporate Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration into its channel partner distribution strategy, and eventually to its digital distribution provisioned via ArrowSphere.

With cyber-attacks at an all-time high, it’s essential that organisations have access to a proven solution to prevent email breaches.

Harmony Email and Collaboration

Harmony Email and Collaboration offers cloud email security and SaaS collaboration applications

Harmony Email and Collaboration offers cloud email security and SaaS collaboration applications, ensuring thorough protection for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and other collaboration and file-sharing apps. Tailored for cloud email settings, Harmony Email and Collaboration acts as a shield, stopping threats before they reach the user's mailbox.

Mike Worby, the Head of Strategic Alliances for Arrow Electronics’ enterprise computing solutions business in EMEA, remarked, “The collaboration between Arrow and Check Point equips Arrow’s channel partners with a Flexible Consumption Model (FCM). This model empowers channel partners to align resources and services to customer requirements seamlessly, all while sidestepping product intricacies.

AI-driven capability

Mike Worby adds, “The upshot is reduced dependency on long-term contracts, enhanced spend control, and a seamless transition to digital distribution strategies. It aligns perfectly with our vision, offering channel partners monthly billing models, enabling vigilant consumption and cost oversight.

Central to Harmony Email and Collaboration’s prowess is its AI-driven capability, adept at safeguarding cloud email and collaboration suites against sophisticated cyber-attacks that slip past conventional security measures. This invisible, multi-layered security furnishes comprehensive protection for cloud collaboration tools, including Office 365, G-Suite, Teams, and Slack.

Featuring straightforward one-click API deployment

With a straightforward one-click API deployment, Harmony Email and Collaboration fortifies enterprises against business email compromise, phishing, malware, data leaks, account takeovers, and shadow IT. By eliminating the need for multiple tools to secure the cloud collaboration suite, Harmony Email and Collaboration’s patented solution distinguishes itself, offering unmatched cloud email security.

Chris Whitley, the Email Security Channel Lead for EMEA at Check Point Software Technologies, said, “With Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration, we’re recalibrating cloud email security standards. Given that email remains the primary breach gateway, Harmony’s deployment assures businesses of a fortified email infrastructure.
