Question 1
Q1A multinational financial institution is designing a new Check Point R82 security infrastructure. The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) requires a separation of duties where the policy management, log storage, and traffic enforcement are handled by distinct, dedicated components to ensure scalability and regulatory compliance. Which architectural component design best satisfies these requirements?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
The Check Point Three-Tier Architecture separates the GUI Client (SmartConsole), the Security Management Server (Management/Logging), and the Security Gateway (Enforcement). To meet the specific requirement of separating log storage from management and enforcement for scalability, a Distributed deployment with a dedicated Log Server is the optimal design.
