Check Point Security Management

My main use case for Check Point Security Management  is to control my gateways and the other Check Point security tools.

In this case, I use Check Point Security Management  for controller, admin, change different topics in my gateways; my gateways are in Azure  and this gateway has only a gateway, with no specific controlling because for this I use Check Point Security Management in other service, specifically in Infinity  Portal.

I have no additional information to add about how I use Check Point Security Management in my environment, particularly with Infinity  Portal or Azure  gateways.

I love the real-time monitoring feature of Check Point Security Management because when I need to see different problems or block different traffic, I need to use a tool with real-time capabilities for troubleshooting or the other documentations with the real issue.
