Rotate

Attack Surface Management

Part of a notable $150M three-company acquisition spree by Check Point (announced February 2026): Rotate becomes the foundation of Check Point's new Workspace Security division, aimed at unifying identity, email, endpoint, browser, SaaS and remote-access protection for the MSP channel.

42/100Emerging / Unranked

Innovation Matrix Assessment

Innovation Velocity 4/10

A platform purpose-built for MSP security workflows by founders with deep MSP-market experience (Datto, Kaseya) reflects solid domain-specific product design.

Operational Value 4/10

Founder pedigree in the MSP market (Datto, Kaseya) suggests strong product-market fit, though independent customer-scale data is not published.

Market Momentum 6/10

Part of Check Point's $150M three-company February 2026 acquisition spree, forming the foundation of a new Workspace Security division.

Category Disruption 3/10

Unifying identity, email, endpoint, browser, SaaS and remote-access protection for MSPs is a meaningful consolidation, though it builds on established security categories.

Real-World Efficacy 3/10

No independent, third-party efficacy data for Rotate's risk-detection accuracy has been published.

Enduring Relevance 5/10

MSP-focused security tooling remains a durable, growing need as more organizations outsource IT management to MSPs.

Why CISOs Should Care

Rotate built a security platform purpose-built for managed service providers, helping MSPs identify security risks across customer environments -- from vulnerable devices and weak passwords to phishing exposure -- relevant to CISOs who rely on MSPs to secure their environments.

What Makes It Different

Founded by Ro'ee Margalit and Avidan Barak (the latter previously senior at Datto and Kaseya, both deeply embedded MSP-market vendors), Rotate was purpose-built for MSP workflows from day one rather than adapted from an enterprise-focused product.
