SMART
The Check Point Security Management Architecture (SMART)
The Check Point Security Management Architecture (SMART) is a core component of our unified security architecture. This object-oriented architecture maps real-world entities, such as networks and users, to graphical representations that can be manipulated in a database.
The SMART architecture enables a rich set of sophisticated management capabilities in Check Point solutions. Starting with core components such as an Integrated Digital Certificate Authority and advanced state table synchronization capabilities, SMART technologies allow Check Point to offer management tools to meet the needs of all organizations, from small businesses to larger distributed enterprises to global service providers.
With SMART security administrators can centrally configure, manage, monitor and report on all security devices, including endpoints, from a single console - the SmartDashboard. It also helps administrators update and implement the latest threat defenses from a central control point. Integrated log analysis and reporting delivers real-time and historical information on the state of network and security systems.
