CPUSE - Check Point Upgrade Service Engine is the tool that allows for the automatic updating of the Gaia OS and Check Point products installed on the Gaia OS. CPUSE is a web-based tool that simplifies the installation of software updates, hotfixes, and upgrade packages on Gaia OS2. The other options are not valid tools for updating Gaia OS and Check Point products.

The communication between different Check Point components is secured in R80 by using SIC. SIC stands for Secure Internal Communication and it is a mechanism that ensures the authenticity and confidentiality of communication between Check Point components, such as Security Gateways, Security Management Servers, Log Servers, etc. SIC uses certificates issued by the Internal CA (ICA) and encryption algorithms such as AES-25634.

The Access Role object type is used to grant network access to an LDAP user group. It defines a set of users and machines that can access a specific network resource34 References: Access Role, LDAP User Group

The Hit count feature will work independently from logging and track the hits even if the Track option is set to “None”1, p. 23. When you enable Hit Count, the Security Management Server collects the data from supported Security Gateways and displays the number of connections that each rule matches in SmartConsole3.

Check Point licenses come in two forms: central and local. Central licenses are attached to the Security Management Server and are distributed to managed Security Gateways. Local licenses are attached directly to a specific Security Gateway.

The actions available in the “Actions” column of a rule in HTTPS Inspection policy are “Inspect” and “Bypass”. “Inspect” means that the HTTPS traffic will be decrypted and inspected according to the Access Control policy. “Bypass” means that the HTTPS traffic will not be decrypted and will be allowed without inspection1. The other options are not valid actions for HTTPS Inspection policy.

 Alerts can be viewed in SmartView Monitor, which is a graphical tool that provides real-time information about the network and security activities, such as traffic, VPN tunnels, threats, and performance4.

The statement that is true regarding Gaia command line is that all configuration changes should be made in CLISH and expert-mode should be used for OS-level tasks. CLISH is the default shell of Gaia CLI that provides a limited set of commands for basic configuration and troubleshooting. Expert mode is an advanced shell that allows running Linux commands and accessing the file system. Configuration changes should not be done in expert-mode, as they may cause inconsistencies or errors in the system. The other statements are false regarding Gaia command line. 

Logs are not automatically forwarded to a new Log Server. SmartConsole must be used to manually configure each gateway to send its logs to the server. After adding a new Log Server and establishing the SIC trust with the SMS, the administrator must use SmartConsole to assign the Log Server to each gateway in the Logs and Masters section of the gateway properties2. The other options are not correct, as gateways can send logs to both SMS and Log Server, Log Servers are not proprietary log archive servers, and gateways will not detect the new Log Server after the next policy install.

 The answer is B because AES-CBC-256 is not a supported encryption algorithm for IPsec Security Associations (Phase 2) in R81. The supported encryption algorithms are AES-GCM-128, AES-GCM-256, AES-CBC-128, 3DES, and NULL3 References: Check Point R81 VPN Administration Guide
