Its sales span the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and Asia Pacific. In 2025, the Americas accounted for 42% of revenue, EMEA for 46%, and Asia Pacific for 12%. Geographic revenue is assigned according to the location of channel partners and direct customers, which may differ from the location of the ultimate user. [26](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104282)[27](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152103880)[28](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494738)[29](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152105505)

In 2025, the company reported $1,142.7 million of revenue in the Americas, $1,174.2 million in EMEA excluding Israel, $74.0 million in Israel, and $334.5 million in Asia Pacific. At year-end, 2,944 of its 6,825 employees were in Israel and 3,881 were elsewhere. Its reported office space comprised approximately 380,784 square feet in Israel, 110,427 in the Americas, 70,643 in EMEA and 81,359 in Asia Pacific. [30](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494980)[31](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494750)[32](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494737)
[26](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104282)[27](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152103880)[28](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494738)[29](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152105505)[30](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494980)[31](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494750)[32](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T17494737)

## Business segments

Check Point reports **one operating and reportable segment**: it manages its cybersecurity business on a consolidated basis and does not publish separate operating results for its product families. Network security, workspace security and other offerings are therefore focus areas, not officially reported segments. [33](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152105532)[34](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104134)[4](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104153)

Its principal revenue breakdown is by type of sale. In 2025, **security subscriptions**—access to security solutions sold as a service—accounted for approximately **45%** of revenue; **software updates and maintenance**, including upgrade rights and technical and hardware support, accounted for approximately **35%**; and **products and licenses**, primarily network security gateways, accounted for approximately **20%**. These are revenue categories within the single reportable segment, not segments with separately reported profits. [35](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104309)[36](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104310)[37](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104308)[38](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104337)[33](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152105532)
[33](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152105532)[34](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104134)[4](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104153)[35](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104309)[36](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104310)[37](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104308)[38](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152104337)

## Company history

Check Point Software Technologies was founded in 1993 by Gil Shwed, Marius Nacht and Shlomo Kramer. It introduced FireWall-1 in 1994, building its early business around stateful-inspection firewall technology, and went public in 1996. [1](https://www.checkpoint.com/about-us/frequently-asked-questions/)[39](https://www.csoonline.com/article/547768/the-firewall-questions-abound-about-its-future-role-in-cloud-mobile-and-sdn-environments.html)[40](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P152105895)

The company broadened its security portfolio through acquisitions, including Zone Labs in 2004, Protect Data—whose products included Pointsec—in 2007, and Nokia’s security-appliance business in 2009. [41](https://www.checkpoint.com/about-us/check-point-history/)[42](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1015922/000117891307000061/zk73299.htm)[43](https://www.nokia.com/newsroom/check-point-software-technologies-acquisition-of-nokias-security-appliance-business-completed/) Later acquisitions included cloud-security company Dome9 in 2018 and network-security company Perimeter 81 in 2023. [44](https://www.checkpoint.com/press-releases/check-point-software-to-acquire-dome9-to-transform-cloud-security/)[45](https://www.checkpoint.com/press-releases/check-point-software-completes-acquisition-of-perimeter-81/) In 2024, Nadav Zafrir succeeded co-founder Gil Shwed as chief executive, while Shwed became executive chairman.
