Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA) R81.20 — Question 111

In a Distributed deployment, the Security Gateway and the Security Management software are installed on what platforms?

Answer options

• A. The installation can be done on virtual machines only, but not on appliances and not in mixed environments.
• B. The installation is done on different computers or appliances.
• C. The installation is done on the same computer or appliance.
• D. The installation is allowed in Azure only but not in AWS cloud environments.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because in a Distributed deployment, the Security Gateway and Security Management software are intended to be installed on separate systems to enhance performance and scalability. Option A is incorrect because installations are not limited to virtual machines. Option C is wrong as it suggests a single installation point, which contradicts the distributed nature. Option D is incorrect since installations can occur in multiple cloud environments, not just Azure.
