Check Point Open Platform for Security (OPSEC) manages network security through an
open,
extensible management framework.
Deep Discovery Inspector integrates with
Check Point OPSEC via the Suspicious Activities Monitoring (SAM) API.
The SAM API implements communications between the SAM client (Deep Discovery Inspector) and the Check Point firewall,
which acts as a SAM Server. Deep Discovery Inspector uses
the SAM API to request that the Check Point firewall take specified actions for certain
connections.
For example, Deep Discovery Inspector may
ask Check Point OPSEC to block a connection with a client that is attempting to issue
illegal
commands or repeatedly failing to log on.
