Why each option
Check Point's Geo Policy shared policy is the feature that allows administrators to create security rules based on the geographic location of traffic sources or destinations.
DLP shared policy enforces rules to detect and prevent transmission of sensitive data, not to filter traffic based on geographic location.
The Geo Policy shared policy in Check Point SmartConsole is specifically designed to match traffic based on the geographic region of its source or destination IP address. It leverages geo-location databases to enforce country-level or region-level access control, and is configured as a shared policy layer applied across the security policy.
The Mobile Access software blade provides secure SSL-based remote access for end users and is unrelated to geographic location-based traffic policy.
HTTPS Inspection decrypts and inspects encrypted HTTPS sessions for hidden threats but does not provide policy control based on the geographic location of traffic.
