Logo
The Check Point logo represents our company brand,
and should appear on every communication. This
includes solution briefs, whitepapers, PowerPoint
presentations, invitations, advertisements,
and event signage, both online and print.

Ideally, the Check Point logo is placed on a background


that provides maximum clarity and visibility.

Use the logo in full color when it is placed on white or a


light-color background.
Use the logo in white when it is placed on black or
a medium-to-dark color background.

An alternative to the four-color Check Point logo are the


black-and-white line art versions seen here. These should
be used for print when Pantone colors or four-color process
is not an option, and for digital purposes when the full color
Check Point logo does not stand out strongly enough.
