The AI agrees with the suggested answer of D. Software blade; software container.
Reasoning: A Check Point software license is indeed comprised of two key components: a software blade and a software container. The software container provides the foundational licensing necessary to operate Check Point products, while the software blades activate specific security functions and features.
Detailed Explanation:

A software blade represents a specific security function or module, such as Firewall, IPS, Anti-Bot, or Application Control. Each blade offers a distinct set of protections and capabilities.
The software container serves as the base license or platform required to run and manage any of the software blades. It provides the underlying infrastructure and management framework. Without a valid software container license, the software blades cannot be activated or utilized.

Reasons for not choosing the other answers:

A. Software container; software package: A 'software package' isn't the correct terminology for the licensed functionality.
B. Software package; signature: 'Signature' refers to threat intelligence updates, not a licensing component.
C. Signature; software blade: While software blades are part of the licensing, 'signature' refers to threat data and isn't the other licensing component.

The combination of a software container and relevant software blades enables a modular and customizable security solution tailored to an organization's specific needs. This information is consistent with Check Point's licensing model as described in their official documentation.
