What's New
R80.10 creates a breakthrough in Check Point Security Gateway, matching the R80 security
management innovations.
R80.10 is part of Check Point Infinity, a consolidated cyber security architecture that spans
networks, cloud, and mobile. It provides the highest level of threat prevention against both known
and unknown targeted attacks to keep you protected now and in the future.

Security Policy New Architecture

• Policy Layers and Sub-Policies - Enable flexible control over the security policy behavior.
• Build a rule base with layers, each with a set of the security rules. Layers are inspected in
the order in which they are defined, giving control over the rule base flow and precedence
of security functionality. If an "Accept" action is done in a layer, inspection continues in the
next layer.
• Sub-Policies (Inline Layers) are sets of rules that you attach to specific rules. If the rule is
matched, inspection continues in the sub-policy attached to the rule. If the rule is not
matched, the sub-policy is skipped.
For example, a sub policy can manage a network segment or branch office.
• Policy Layers and Sub-Policies can be managed by specific administrators, according to
their permission profile, allowing easy responsibility delegation in the team.

 Introduction

Management Enhancements
These enhancements were first introduced in R80.
• Multi-Domain Security Management
• Unified architecture and management console for Security Management and Multi Domain
Security Management.
• New and improved views for Domain management and Global Assignment.
• Role-based & Concurrent Administration - Several administrators can work in parallel on the
same security policy, with granular and flexible privilege delegation to each administrator.
• A new advanced locking mechanism ensures administrators do not overwrite each others'
work.
• Rich administrator profiles for exact privileges each administrator will have, including
managing specific policies or network segments, viewing specific logs, and conducting
security operations, such as installing policy.
• Secured Automation and Orchestration - CLI and API for security management enables full
integration with 3rd party systems and automation of daily operations. Automation and
SmartConsole management operations are allowed based on the same privilege profile.
• Faster Day to Day Operations

 Introduction

Behavior Changes
• Management
• Management API commands and the SmartView Web-based interface replace the
Management Portal. Use the API commands to install a policy and show a list of Gateways
and Servers. Use SmartView to see logs.
• The new tags for objects replace the renaming of object colors. You can name a tag
according to a color. The tags make it easier to manage objects in SmartConsole.
• New and improved management abilities replace the Database Revision function. To learn
about the enhanced Revisions Management in R80 and higher, see sk113615
http://supportcontent.checkpoint.com/solutions?id=sk113615.
• The mdsstop and mdsstart commands on the Multi-Domain Server are the only way to
start and stop Domain Management Servers function. Most Domain Management Server
components are handled in one process. This reduces memory consumption and CPU
usage.
• Logs, Events, and Reports
• The Logs tab of the SmartConsole Logs & Monitor view replaces SmartLog and SmartView
Tracker. The Logs tab allows you to search through logs with simple and fast searches.
Search results are fast and immediately show the log records.
• SmartEvent replaces SmartReporter and SmartEvent Intro.
• Scheduled reports have been integrated to SmartConsole, and are no longer available from
SmartEvent legacy GUI.
• Threat Prevention and IPS
• The new IPS Optimized Profile replaces the Recommended Profile with excellent security
and improved gateway performance. When upgrading with the Recommended Profile, we
recommend that you change to the Optimized Profile.
• Additional granularity in Threat Prevention permission profiles - Set permissions for IPS
Updates.
• User Center authentication is synchronized with Management Servers to allow IPS and
Threat Prevention updates without explicit login to the User Center. This applies only to
users with permissions to run updates.
• New IPS Protections are marked as "Staging" by default. The Staging configuration can be
changed from the Threat Prevention profile > IPS. You can search and filter Staging
protections from the Protections view, and see corresponding logs. This replaces the
follow up flag.
• Software Blades
• Session Authentication and UserAuthority are replaced by Identity Awareness.
• Overviews, which were part of the Threat Prevention and Application Control tabs in R77
versions, are now shown in the Logging and Monitoring view. This requires SmartEvent
activation and license.
• VPN Traditional Mode is replaced by VPN Simplified Mode.

Platforms
R76SP.50 for 61000/41000 and 64000/44000

Logging Requirements
Logs can be stored on:
• A Security Management Server that collects logs from the Security Gateways. This is the
default.
• A Log Server on a dedicated machine. This is recommended for organizations that generate
many logs.
A dedicated Log Server has greater capacity and performance than a Security Management Server
with an activated logging service. On dedicated Log Servers, the Log Server must be the same
version as the Management Server.

SmartEvent Requirements
You can install a SmartEvent Server on a Security Management Server or on a different, dedicated
server. SmartEvent R80.10 can connect to a different version of Log Server - R77.xx or earlier.
Usually SmartEvent and a Correlation Unit are installed on the same server. You can also install
them on separate servers, for example, to balance the load in large logging environments. The
Correlation unit must be the same version as SmartEvent.
To deploy SmartEvent and to generate reports, a valid license or contract is required.
