Serious Discussion Harmony Endpoint by Check Point

There is nothing complicated really, it’s all about having a love for books, or in this case, the Admin guide. I just LOVE reading guides not only for that but also for appliances and everything. Before I buy something, I’ve already read the guide. I’ve even read the Apple OS guides, which are about 2K pages average. If you read, you will understand everything.
I read the Harmony admin guide 5-6 times before I start the trial and now I can use it with my eyes closed.
I tended to get bogged down with the reading if I'm also not using the software at the same time to better understand what I'm reading, and then if the software is running ok and I have basic understanding of app, I stop reading... :oops::ROFLMAO: (but promise will follow thru with both Harmony and Di) :whistle:

In Microsoft Defender For Business, the recommended security policies are pre-configured out of the box. All the end user has to do is onboard their device.
There are policies pre-defined in Harmony as well. You can choose “strict”. But on business environment it is always recommended to review and plan a policy. The policy should provide maximum security whilst allowing users to work freely and without distractions.
 
Wait I have a question - how are some things detected by behavioral detection but not by the emulatior?

Emulation involves running on a VM. Virtual machines have various artefacts. Although Check Point has taken every care to hide the artefacts using both hardware and software features, fraction of malware may not perform actions when emulated. When you execute them on a real system, the classification engines will observe the malicious behaviour. Bypassing emulation like the Check Point (and also CrowdStrike and Palo Alto one) is not an easy task and doesn’t happen frequently. When it happens, other layers still provide protection.

Ahh. But I've seen things that arent anti-sandbox get past it, but are detected by Behavioral Detection. How does that work?
 
How do you disable the browser extension - for me it slows down donwloads, alot. Emulation should take 2-3 minutes but instead downloads take around 10.
