Explanation
Deploying a Check Point Standalone installation (Management + Gateway combined) on Azure is fully supported through multiple methods: the Azure Marketplace (pre-built solution templates), PowerShell scripting, and ARM/solution templates - making D the only complete and accurate answer.
Why the distractors fail:
- A is wrong because Check Point has long supported Azure as a cloud platform, including Standalone deployments.
- B is wrong because GitHub is not an official Azure deployment channel for Check Point solutions; while Check Point publishes templates on GitHub, you don't deploy through GitHub - you use it as a source.
- C is wrong not because PowerShell is unsupported, but because it presents PowerShell as the only method, which is false.
Memory tip: Think "MPM" - Marketplace, PowerShell, and teMplates. Whenever an exam question lists one valid method and asks if it's the only method, the answer is almost always the option that includes all valid methods.
