Check Point Establishes a New Standard in Endpoint Security

Endpoint Security R72 delivers breakthrough end-user simplicity and Web threat
protection
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq:CHKP), the worldwide leader in
securing the Internet, today announced Check Point Endpoint Security R72, a
groundbreaking, new version of the industry`s only single agent for endpoint
security. The new release incorporates revolutionary technologies to improve
end-user simplicity and advance endpoint security. New Check Point WebCheck
browser security protects enterprise PCs against the rising number of Web-based
threats with a seamless, transparent end-user experience while OneCheck single
authentication, which unlocks all endpoint security subsystems, and VPN
Auto-Connect further simplify usability.

"New technologies for protecting endpoints must be adopted if businesses are to
successfully guard themselves against the onslaught of Web-based attacks," said
Gil Shwed, chairman and chief executive officer at Check Point. "Our focus is to
provide not only the most advanced security for customers, but also the most
simple and easy end-user experience."

Check Point Endpoint Security R72 adds a new dimension to endpoint security and
user simplicity previously unavailable to enterprises by delivering Check Point
WebCheck browser security. WebCheck provides a dual browser mode that segregates
corporate data from the Internet, allowing end-users the freedom to surf the Web
with full protection against automatically downloaded malware, known as drive-by
downloads, and phishing attempts while keeping it separated and isolated from
the corporate and other highly secured Web sites. Additional information on
Check Point WebCheck can be found at:

"Web browsing is an inevitable activity done by employees everyday, which can
introduce unpredictable threats on an individual`s PC as well as in the
corporate network," said Toshikazu Ohtani, general manager, security system
division at NEC Soft, Ltd. (Japan). "Check Point Endpoint Security R72 is the
product we trust to provide proactive and pre-emptive protections for Web and
browser risks. It gives us the needed protections and a seamless user
experience."

To further simplify the end-user experience, Check Point Endpoint Security R72
adds OneCheck authentication and VPN Auto-Connect for enhanced remote access.
OneCheck automatically unlocks all endpoint security subsystems, including
Windows login, disk encryption, media encryption and VPN, with a single, easy
login. New VPN Auto-Connect ensures uninterrupted connectivity for end-users as
they move between LAN and wireless connections. VPN Auto-Connect connects
automatically following a successful OneCheck authentication and seamlessly
determines the correct configuration for remote access to the corporate network,
reducing IT help desk requests. The result for the user is seamless and
automatic VPN connectivity without the need to further connect or authenticate.

"Check Point adds an additional tool in its overall endpoint security arsenal
with Endpoint Point Security R72 that addresses an area of concern for
enterprises," said Jonathan Steenland, chief security officer at Fujitsu
America. "However, with so many threats out there, the key to preventing attacks
is how an enterprise manages its security infrastructure as well as the
protections themselves. Check Point offers businesses one endpoint security
agent with all the needed protections that can be effectively managed through
one console."
