In R80, IPS is managed by the Threat Prevention Policy567. The Threat Prevention Policy defines how to protect the network from malicious traffic using IPS, Anti-Bot, Anti-Virus, and Threat Emulation software blades5. The IPS layer in the Threat Prevention Policy allows configuring IPS protections and actions for different network segments5. The other options are not true about the IPS-Blade. References: Check Point IPS Datasheet, Check Point IPS Software Blade, Quantum Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)

There are three types of Endpoint Identity Agents: Full, Light, and Terminal. Custom is not a valid type2.

Identity Awareness uses several methods for acquiring identity, such as Active Directory Query, Identity Agent, Browser-Based Authentication, Terminal Servers, Captive Portal, and RADIUS12. Cloud IdP (Identity Provider) is not a method used by Identity Awareness12. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Cloud IdP (Identity Provider).

This answer is correct because these are the two forms of Check Point licenses that are used to activate the software blades on the Security Gateways and the Security Management Servers1. A central license is a license that is attached to a Security Management Server and can be used to manage multiple Security Gateways1. A local license is a license that is attached to a specific Security Gateway and can only be used by that gateway1.

The other answers are not correct because they are either irrelevant or inaccurate options for Check Point licenses forms. Security Gateway and Security Management are not license forms, but software components that provide firewall, VPN, and other security features2. On-premise and Public Cloud are not license forms, but deployment options for Check Point products3. Access Control and Threat Prevention are not license forms, but software blades that provide different security functions.

The Publish operation sends the modifications made via SmartConsole in the private session and makes them public is the correct answer. This is because publishing is the process of saving your changes to the database and making them available to other administrators. Publishing also allows you to install policies on Security Gateways. References: [Publishing Changes]

 Security Gateway software blades must be attached to a Security Gateway container. A Security Gateway container is a logical object that represents a physical or virtual machine that runs the Security Gateway software. A software blade is a modular security feature that can be enabled or disabled eway container. A software blade can provide functions such as firewall, VPN, IPS, anti-virus, anti-bot, application control, URL filtering, etc.References: [Security Gateway Containers], [Software Blades]

 Log query results can be exported to Comma Separated Value (csv) file format. CSV is a file format that stores tabular data in plain text. It is compatible with various applications, such as Excel, Google Sheets, etc. The other options are not valid file formats for exporting log query results.

The type of Endpoint Identity Agent that includes packet tagging and computer authentication is Full. The Full Identity Agent is a client-side software that provides full identity awareness features, such as user authentication, computer authentication, packet tagging, identity caching, and identity sharing. The other types of Endpoint Identity Agents are Custom, Complete, and Light, which have different features and capabilities. 

Check Point provides an Automatic Licensing and Verification tool that ensures licenses are properly validated. This tool:

Automatically checks current licenses against Check Point's online license repository.

Activates newly added licenses.

Ensures compliance with active contracts.

Option B (incorrect): "Verification licensing" is not an official Check Point feature.

Option C (incorrect): "Verification tool" is too generic and does not refer to Check Point’s licensing system.

Option D (incorrect): "Automatic licensing" does not fully describe the verification and activation process.

Thus, the correct answer is A. Automatic Licensing and Verification tool.

 Identity Captive Portal is a Check Point Identity Awareness web portal, to which users connect with their web browser to log in and authenticate, when using Browser-Based Authentication2. To enable Identity Captive Portal for a specific rule, you need to right click Accept in the rule, select “More”, and then check “Enable Identity Captive Portal”3.
