Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA) R81 — Question 203

What is the purpose of the Stealth Rule?

Answer options

• A. To make the gateway visible to the Internet.
• B. To prevent users from directly connecting to a Security Gateway.
• C. To reduce the amount of logs for performance issues.
• D. To reduce the number of rules in the database.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The Stealth Rule is designed to prevent direct connections to a Security Gateway, enhancing security by controlling access. Option A is incorrect as it describes the opposite effect of making the gateway visible. Option C misinterprets the rule's intent, as it does not focus on log reduction for performance. Option D is unrelated to the primary purpose of the Stealth Rule.
