UPRD Daemon ?

HeikoAnkenbrand — Thu, 19 Dec 2024 11:15:32 GMT

The "Unified Policy Report Daemon" short uprd is a mysterious daemon that is not properly described in R82.
All Check Point SE's I have talked to currently don't know what exactly it does.

I also tried reverse engineering to find out what it does.
Even switching on debug logs did not help to find out what it is good for.

The only sparse information can be found here:
sk97638: Check Point Processes and Daemons

Is there any further information on this daemon?

I have not seen any documentation on this daemon (public or private).
However, based on running strings on the binary, it's likely related to the Lock Contention Statistics tool mentioned in sk97443.
Only relevant in USFW, from what I can tell.
