Software Development Kit
The OPSEC Software Development Kit (SDK) is the ideal resource
for those who wish to integrate their applications and network
security systems with the industry's leading enterprise security
solutions. It is available to independent software vendors,
value-added resellers network integrators and end users of
Check Point software. A collection of APIs (Application Programming
Interfaces), standard protocol interface definitions, and
a set of C libraries are provided to enable the development
of OPSEC-compliant solutions. These clearly defined interfaces
enable integration with FireWall-1, VPN-1 without delving
into the complexity of the underlying architecture which provides
a complete client/server communications infrastructure. With
the OPSEC SDK, a competent developer can bring an integrated
solution to market in a fraction of the time normally required.
Pre-requisites for Using the SDK
The OPSEC SDK is intended for use by software developers with
an understanding of Check Point products and technologies
and C programming. Implementation experience with this and
other security products as well as prior experience with networking
and communication protocols such as TCP/IP, LDAP and RADIUS
is recommended.
OPSEC SDK Features:
- Defines all OPSEC APIs necessary for integration
- Includes C libraries, header files and supporting documentation
- Supports industry-standard protocols
- Enables distributed deployment of integrated applications
via secure TCP/IP connections
- Provides tools and sample code for development and debugging
assistance

OPSEC SDK Benefits:
- Integrate applications with Check Point products quickly
and easily
- Minimize maintenance costs by integrating at the API level
with Check Point products, ensuring future interoperability
- Integrate your application at the policy level with best-of-class
security products
