Operational Impact
The implementation of Check Point technology has brought significant benefits to FEUP. For an IT security administrator, the biggest advantage of Check Point technology is its simplicity. Despite working in a complex network environment, comprehensive security policies can be set with a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI). This GUI, called SmartCenter, has remained stable despite many changes over the years. Additionally, FEUP has developed a close relationship with Check Point, working with teams of technicians who traveled to Portugal to implement ClusterXL, SecureXL, and CoreXL. Looking ahead, with its perimeter protected by the extensible VPN-1 Power, FEUP simply has to monitor for updates and upgrade the system twice a year to take advantage of the latest Check Point security developments. | |
