White Paper - Check Point Compliance Checking with Secure Configuration Verification (SCV)

[_Val_]

Author: @Michele_Boland 

Abstract

Secure Configuration Verification (SCV) provides an elegant compliance checking solution for enterprises using Check Point Endpoint Security VPN Client and Check Point Mobile for Windows Client.

SCV strengthens enterprise security by ensuring client machines are configured in accordance with the enterprise Security Policy. SCV augments and complements Desktop Security Policy. SCV is the platform for creating and using SCV checks. SCV checks are sets of conditions that define a securely configured client system, such as the user’s browser configuration, the current version of the Anti-Virus software installed on the computer, the proper operation of the personal firewall policy, etc.

The SCV security compliance checks are performed at pre-defined intervals via the Check Point Endpoint Security VPN Client and the Check Point Mobile for Windows Client. Depending on result of the SCV security compliance checks, the Check Point VPN Gateway decides whether to allow or block connections from the Endpoint to the corporate network.

Is there any possibilites to display the SCV error message in the Check Point log?

In my lab only the Firewall blades SCV informational messages displayed, but not the mismatchmessage itself. Other blades SCV informational messages were empty.
