MetTel Announces Strategic Partnership with Check Point to Provide Mobile Threat Defense for Enterprises

NEW YORK, July 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MetTel, a leader in digital transformation and managed mobility solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with Check Point Software Technologies to deliver an advanced mobile threat defense solution for enterprise customers.

MetTel's fully managed Mobile Threat Defense solution, powered by Check Point Harmony Mobile, provides comprehensive protection against mobile cyber threats, ensuring secure access to corporate data without compromising user experience or privacy. 

In today's work-from-anywhere world, mobile security is no longer optional. With employees accessing more sensitive corporate information via mobile devices, organizations face growing risks from phishing attacks, malicious apps, OS vulnerabilities, and network-based threats. According to market research, 47% of organizations experienced significant repercussions — such as data loss or operational downtime — due to security incidents involving mobile or IoT devices. 

Hear Check Point Field CISO Pete Nicoletti describe the rise of AI, deep fakes and the evolving threat landscape on the Techie & the Biz podcast with hosts Max and Erika Silber.

MetTel's new Mobile Threat Defense solution combats these challenges by delivering end-to-end protection across all mobile attack vectors — apps, files, networks, and operating systems. It leverages static and dynamic threat analysis to detect known and unknown threats, blocks infected devices, and prevents man-in-the-middle attacks.

"Mobile security ranks as the top technology concern for enterprise buyers and MetTel is uniquely positioned to give them confidence that their mobile workforce will be protected from all threats" said Max Silber, VP of Mobility and IoT at MetTel. "By integrating Check Point Harmony Mobile into our managed mobility ecosystem, we're providing customers with a seamless, scalable solution that enhances their security posture while maintaining operational efficiency."
