Marketing description

With the Management Portal Software Blade, you can extend browser-based management access to outside groups such as technical support staff or auditors, while maintaining centralized control of policy enforcement. Management Portal users can view security policies, the status of all Check Point products and administrator activity as well as edit, create and/or modify internal users, and manage firewall logs.
This extended functionality facilitates team coordination in mitigating attacks or troubleshooting network and security issues. The Management Portal Software Blade allows security administrators to show configuration and log status data to their customers and extend - at their discretion - security policy access to other groups, thereby increasing security visibility within the organization.
