DALLAS, TX - May 21, 1997 - Enstar Networking Corporation today announced the opening of a training facility in Dallas which will function as a Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. Authorized Training Center (ATC) delivering security engineer certification for the Check PointTM FireWall-1TM enterprise security solution. Enstar's Dallas training facility will deliver high-quality training for end-users and resellers using Check Point Software products.
The training center expands Enstar's client service capabilities by expanding its range as a full-service network integrator providing connectivity solutions, quality training and certification programs for its customers. The training center in Dallas is designed to certify network professionals in network security technologies and will serve Enstar's clients in territories covering Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Louisiana.

"By opening the ATC in Dallas and another in Minneapolis, Enstar enhances its ability to provide security service excellence as another valuable customer service for its clients."
