This article will be useful to those who are familiar with Check Point technologies for emulation of files ( Threat Emulation ) and proactive cleaning of files ( Threat Extraction ) and want to take a step towards automating these tasks. Check Point has a Threat Prevention API that works both in the cloud and on local devices, and is functionally identical to checking files in web / smtp / ftp / smb / nfs traffic streams . This article is partly the author's interpretation of a set of articles from the official documentation, but built on my own operating experience and on my own examples. Also in the article you will find the author's Postman collections for working with the Threat Prevention API.
