Why Join Us?

Check Point Harmony SASE (Secure Access Service Edge), originally Perimeter 81, was acquired by Check Point and has since become one of the company’s most strategic growth platforms.

It represents Check Point’s cloud-native SASE solution, converging networking and security into a unified global cloud service.

SASE enables secure, fast, and resilient connectivity for users, branches, and devices from anywhere.
