When a SAM rule is required on Security Gateway to quickly block suspicious connections which are not restricted by the Security Policy, the administrator needs to take the following action: SmartView Monitor should be opened and then the SAM rule/s can be applied immediately. Installing policy is not required. SAM stands for Suspicious Activity Monitoring and is a feature that allows administrators to block or limit connections from specific sources or destinations without modifying the security policy. SAM rules can be created from SmartView Monitor or SmartEvent based on real-time network activity or security events. References: [Check Point R81 SmartView Monitor Administration Guide]
