C: Admin and Read-Only Correct answer
D: Super Admin, Read-Write All, Read-Only
Correct Answer:
C. Admin and Read-Only
Explanation

The Check Point on-premises Endpoint Security Management Server provides a straightforward permissions model with two distinct administrator roles. The 'Admin' role grants full permissions to view and modify all settings, policies, and objects within the management server. The 'Read-Only' role allows an administrator to view all configurations and reports but prevents them from making any changes, ensuring separation of duties and preventing accidental modifications.

Why Incorrect

A. Primary Administrator and Read-Only: 'Primary Administrator' is not a defined role within the on-premises Endpoint Security Management Server's native user management.
B. Super Admin, Primary Administrator, User Admin, Read-Only: This list includes roles that are not standard for the Endpoint Security Management Server; these are more aligned with other Check Point products.
D. Super Admin, Read-Write All, Read-Only: 'Super Admin' and 'Read-Write All' are roles associated with the main R8x SmartConsole for gateway management, not the specific roles for Endpoint Management.
