EL AL Israel Airlines

Today marks 500 days since the war began. 500 days that the #hostages have been held captive by Hamas in Gaza.

We are proud to share that for the second consecutive year, EL AL was represented at Check Point Software’s annual conference, where Chen Amram received the prestigious Implementation of the Year award. This time, in one of the most cutting-edge fields—AI in cybersecurity.   Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing cybersecurity, enabling real-time threat detection, automated responses, and enhanced vulnerability management. AI-powered systems analyze vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and make rapid decisions at a scale beyond human capabilities.   The impact of AI on cybersecurity is only growing: 📈 The AI in cybersecurity market is projected to grow from $24 billion in 2023 to $134 billion by 2030. ⚠️ 74% of cybersecurity professionals report that AI-based threats already impact their organizations. 🔐 93% of businesses expect to face daily AI-driven attacks in the coming year.   At EL AL, cybersecurity is not just a priority—it’s essential. As the first company to implement this AI-driven solution in collaboration with Check Point, we are continuously innovating to protect our systems, monitor security pathways, and enhance log analysis.   A huge thank you to our incredible cybersecurity team for leading the way in securing EL AL’s operations. Your dedication ensures that our passengers and operations remain safe in an ever-evolving digital landscape.

EL AL Women Braid Hair in Honor of Agam Berger’s Return #Home. Most of the young women recently released from captivity returned home with their hair braided—braids woven by Agam Berger, who served as a surveillance soldier at the Nahal Oz outpost and was taken hostage on October 7th. Despite knowing she herself would remain behind, Agam braided the hair of her fellow hostages. Through this simple yet powerful act, she turned the braids into a symbol of #strength, #love, #humanity, #resilience, and #power. We continue to pray for the swift return of all our brothers and sisters still held #hostage.🎗️
