Example use cases

These scenarios highlight the ways you can use the SMC API.

  • Integrate the SMC with third-party policy management and risk management applications. The SMC API is already used by vendors such as Tufin, FireMon, and Skybox.
  • Provide the necessary tools for managed security service providers (MSSPs) to include functions related to Management Servers and Log Servers on their own web portals.
  • Automate frequent tasks through scripting without administrators manually configuring them in the Management Client.
  • Develop an alternative user interface for managing Management Servers and Log Servers.
