Check Point | Exposure Management, Protecting You From Exposures

A woman in a modern office watches her boss walk past wearing a bright yellow blazer.
She sends a sarcastic message to a colleague about it — and instantly realizes she hit Reply All.

The situation escalates into a futuristic Security Operations Center.
Digital analysts flag the email as a threat and race against the clock.
Seconds before the boss opens it, the software rewrites the message into a compliment.

Crisis avoided. Career saved.

The Formula (That Works at Any Budget)

The Relatable Disaster = The “Reply All” Gaffe
The ad turns a universally feared workplace mistake into a high-stakes moment.

→ Lesson: Anchor complex tech in a mistake everyone understands.

Personification = Making the Invisible Visible
Security processes are visualized as a real-time response team.

→ Lesson: Show what your software does instead of explaining it.

Contrast = Technical Rigor vs. Social Chaos
Cybersecurity language is applied to a petty social error.

→ Lesson: Serious systems feel more valuable when they prevent small human disasters.

Humor Breakdown

The humor comes from exaggeration. A minor office slip is treated like a major cyber incident. That overreaction is the joke — and the message.

→ Lesson: Raise the stakes to make prevention feel powerful.

It demonstrates intelligence, speed, and real-world impact in under a minute.

Understanding the B.R.A.V.E. Scoring System

The B.R.A.V.E. scoring system uses AI to deliver an unbiased evaluation of top-of-the-funnel B2B brand ads. It measures potential impact, memorability, and effectiveness by assessing five key components of a video ad or commercial. This system gauges an ad's capacity to drive brand recall and enhance salience, ensuring that creative work not only captures attention but also leaves a lasting impression.

What B.R.A.V.E. Stands For:

Each letter represents a key factor in determining an ad’s success:

  • BBoldness: Is the ad original, creative, or daring? Does it break away from generic B2B marketing, or is it just another forgettable corporate video?
  • RRelevance: Does it connect with a real buyer pain point? Is it addressing a specific frustration or need, or just listing product features?
  • AAttention: Does it grab and hold attention in the first few seconds? Is it visually or tonally engaging, or easy to skip?
  • VVibe: Does it create an emotional response—laughter, recognition, or surprise? Or does it feel like just another corporate info dump?
  • EEffectiveness: Will buyers remember the brand when they need a solution? Does the ad make an impact that lasts beyond the moment?

How It’s Applied to B2B Video Rating

Each video is scored 1 to 10 in all five categories, based on how well it meets the criteria. The total score (out of 50) is then divided by 5 to give a final B.R.A.V.E. score out of 10.

For example:

  • An ad scoring B-8 | R-9 | A-7 | V-6 | E-8 has a total of 38/50.
  • The final B.R.A.V.E. score is 7.6/10.

Why It Matters

B2B ads often struggle with being bland, forgettable, or ineffective. The B.R.A.V.E. system ensures they are judged by their ability to break through, connect with buyers, and drive action.

Simply put: If your ad isn’t B.R.A.V.E., it’s invisible.
