SINGAPORE, June 25, 2001 - Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, today announced that its Pacific-Rim Internet security conferences -- the Check Point Experience -- have drawn the largest attendance to date. More than 1,500 Check Point customers and partners across the region flocked to one of three day-long conferences to obtain key business and technical information on the company's upcoming and much-anticipated product family, Check Point Next Generation. The third of these conferences is being held today in Singapore, with previous conferences held last week in Sydney, Australia and Hong Kong. Registration is currently open for the next Check Point Experience in Tokyo on August 1, 2001. For more information on this premier Internet security event, visit www.checkpoint.com.

The Check Point Experience conferences have consistently drawn record-breaking crowds worldwide this year, with previous conferences held in Paris, France last month and in Nashville, Tennessee in March.

The Check Point Experience provides customers and partners with valuable technology and market information via presentations, technical and business-focused tracks, and product demonstrations from Check Point and its partners. A key highlight in these seminars is the company's new product family, Check Point Next Generation. Check Point Next Generation is designed to meet future needs of customers by making security easy to use, faster, more manageable and scalable, while helping companies cut communications costs through the use of advanced virtual private network (VPN) capabilities. Check Point Next Generation is now in beta with customers and is scheduled to begin shipping next month.

"Check Point customers and partners around the world are anxious for information on the latest security trends and premier technology," said Gil Shwed, chairman and CEO of Check Point Software Technologies. "The record-breaking attendance at all of our worldwide Check Point Experiences both signifies the high level of interest in and enthusiasm for Check Point Next Generation and validates these conferences as among the industry's most important forums for Internet security."
