Selected Answers: A


A. Cloud/Data Center

Per Check Point's official documentation, the Cloud/Data Center profile provides optimized security to prevent cyberattacks on data centers, including extensive protection over servers and east-west traffic — making it the correct match for this question.

Why the others are wrong:

B. Internal Network — This profile is described as providing maximum security for internal traffic between internal users and internal servers — a related but distinct profile from the one specifically optimized for cloud/data center east-west traffic.
C. Guests Network — This profile applies aggressive/detect-mode protection specifically for less-trusted guest network traffic (e.g., guest Wi-Fi) — unrelated to data center east-west protection.
D. Perimeter — This profile protects north-south traffic at the network edge (between internal users and the external internet) — the opposite traffic direction from the east-west traffic described in the question.
