SmartView Reporter Achieves High Marks
with University
University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) is one of five campuses
of the University of Massachusetts and hosts more than 13,000 students
and faculty. Within a week, UML's security data logs can collect
up to 9 gigabits of data, and this data must then be turned into
actionable information to empower the security administrator to
act on the fly to combat dynamic Internet threats.
"With Check Point SmartView Reporter we are able to quickly
sift through vast amounts of data collected from multiple gateways,
increasing our visibility to critical security issues and promoting
better security practices," explained Stephen Drescher, director,
Telecommunications for University of Massachusetts Lowell. "Also,
the customized reports generated by SmartView Reporter offer great
insight to security, network and user activity and are presented
in a business-relevant format that I can share with executive management
to easily demonstrate the value of our security investments."
"Check Point's SmartView Reporter empowers customers to drill
down into critical data, analyze this data and make informed business
decisions about their security deployment," said Gonen Fink,
vice president, solutions and strategy for Check Point Software.
"Tools such as SmartView Reporter extend Check Point's SMART
Management Architecture, recognized as the industry's most consistent
and powerful management architecture, enabling customers to strengthen
network security and intelligently manage their increasingly sophisticated
