Check Point (CHKP)

Sourced public facts, grouped by the twelve letters, and a machine-check FOUND score. Facts are what the source says; the score is what our code could see.

Just the domain. No email, no login, usually under a minute.

All peers
FOUND Score v1.0 · read 4 Nov 2026 · Medium confidence
77of 100

Medium confidence: 52% of the points rest on evidence we read ourselves (the site, listing pages, awarders' lists, filings, X data, answer samples); the rest was found by live search or estimated, and is labelled so.

Change since the previous read: none. Read from public evidence; not a judgement of the company.

Last refreshed 4 Nov 2026. Stale after 14 days.

Size: >$1B revenue ($2.73B trailing twelve months to 2025-12-31; $2.73B in the fiscal year to 2025-12-31). SEC EDGAR, read 19 Oct 2026. A comparison group, not a score input.

Fix list for Check Point: the 4 biggest gaps first

The parts of the score furthest below what the method lets them reach, worked out from the evidence shown on this page. Each says what to do and why it moves the score. “Up to” is the most the overall score could rise if that part reached full; it is not a forecast.

  1. Security and trust published · Distinctions

    0 of 25 points now · up to +5 overall

    Do this: Publish /.well-known/security.txt, a trust or security page, and name your certifications (for example SOC 2 or ISO 27001) on it.

    Why it moves the score: Security and trust published is worth 25 points of Distinctions, read on your site; each check that passes adds its share.

    Now: 0% of the security.txt, trust page and named certifications checks pass on the site. Checks to fix: security.txt (not found), Security or trust page, open without login (not found), Certifications named (not found).

  2. Following of the brand and its leaders · Opinions

    8.4 of 25 points now · up to +3 overall

    Do this: Post every week from the company account and the founder’s own account: one useful idea, one customer result, one thing you learned.

    Why it moves the score: Following of the brand and its leader is worth 25 points of Opinions, log-scaled from 50 followers, so the first thousands count the most.

    Now: 70,875 followers on the brand account, 0 on its leader (from 50, full at 20 million and 10 million).

  3. People talking about you · Opinions

    3.4 of 10 points now · up to +1 overall

    Do this: Give people something to repeat: original data, a customer result or a launch, shared where your buyers already talk.

    Why it moves the score: Posts by others naming you in the last 7 days are worth 10 points of Opinions, log-scaled.

    Now: 113 posts by others in 7 days (full at 300,000).

  4. Ratings and reviews on review sites · Opinions

    31.9 of 50 points now · up to +4 overall · partly estimated, not read on this run

    Do this: Ask an eligible, representative group of genuine customers for honest reviews on one business review site (G2, Capterra or Gartner Peer Insights), including mixed feedback. Never write, buy or cherry-pick reviews.

    Why it moves the score: Reviews are worth 50 points of Opinions: rating quality times review volume, log-scaled, so the first reviews count the most and a second independent site adds breadth.

    Now: Only 3 review family found on this run, so estimated from AI answers and web presence (at most 85% of the part).

    A score can move for reasons outside this plan, and answer engines change. It is not a forecast.

Review sites (in the score, Opinions)

Searched 19 Oct 2026, each line tied by Google Search to the review site's own listing page. Our crawler then opens each listing page where the site allows it (robots.txt obeyed, no login, no bot check worked around): a rating read on the page counts in full and replaces the search figure; one only from search counts 0.9 and is marked “from search, page not read”. Business-software sites count fully; consumer sites such as Trustpilot count 0.4. Capterra, GetApp and Software Advice share one pool of reviews and count once. In this read the review part scored 32 of 50.

A listing is read on the awarder’s own page and is not verified by a person, so it counts at most 1 of 5 for Authority (2 for Authenticity, review-based only). “Not found” may mean not seen: most programmes need an entry, and some pages are built by script. Not finding a company never lowers its score. How each programme works is on the awards page; the method is on the score page.
