After installing the Security Management Server and the Security Gateways, you can continue with cyber security configuration for your environment.
Define your organization's topology
Network topology consists of network components, both physical and logical, such as physical and virtual Security Gateways, hosts, hand-held devices, CA servers, third-party servers, services, resources, networks, address ranges, and groups. Each of these components corresponds to an object in your Check Point security management configuration. Configure those objects in SmartConsole.
Define users and user groups that your security environment protects
You can add users and groups to the database manually, through LDAP and User Directory, or with the help of Active Directory.
Define access rules for protection of your organization's resources
Configure access rules and group them in policies that are enforced on the Security Gateways. You can define access policies based on traffic, applications, Web sites, and data. Set up preventative actions against known threats with Check Point Anti-Virus and Anti-Malware. Educate users about the validity and security of the operations they attempt with the help of UserCheck. Track network traffic and events through logging and monitoring.
Enforce access policies
Configure the Security Gateways. Make sure to activate the appropriate Software Blades. Then, install your policies on the Security Gateways.
