Lakera was set to be acquired by Check Point to deliver end-to-end AI security for enterprises, with Lakera positioned for AI-native runtime security and red teaming, Check Point said on 16 September 2025.
Security vendors are buying LLM runtime specialists as prompt injection and agent abuse move into production risk registers. Buyers still need clarity on product integration, support paths and which brand owns the roadmap.
Lakera remains the directory brand face for this pack, with Check Point as parent after the reported 22 October 2025 close. The September agreement framed a fourth-quarter 2025 close target.
Security architects should confirm runtime coverage on their LLM estates — before treating any acquisition announcement as a completed AI security programme.
