Targeting CheckPoint

Once you have configured the Check Point server and generated users, add the Check Point server as a target system in Bravura Security Fabric :

  • Type is CheckPoint Software Endpoint Security .

  • Address uses options described in the table below.

    The target system address for an installation of Pointsec for PC / Full Disk Encryption is entered as follows:

    {server=<serverName>;port=<portNumber>;ssl=true|false;checkCert=true|false;Version=<versionNumber>;sdkpath=<sdkPath>;Handler=<handlerFunc>;Algorithm=AES|BLOW;ResponseLength=15|20|25|29;}

  • Administrator ID is the user ID you created in Configuring the Check Point server .

The full list of target parameters is explained in Target System Options.
