Intrusion SecureNet Receives Check Point OPSEC Approval

Intrusion SecureNet Intrusion Detection Data Now Viewable in Check Point Management Stations Enabling Centralized Forensic Analysis

San Jose, CA and Richardson, Texas, February 19, 2002 - Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, and Intrusion Inc. (NASDAQ: INTZ), a leading provider of enterprise security solutions for the information-driven economy, today announced its expanded partership through Check Point's OPSECT certification of the Intrusion SecureNet technology. SecureNet, network intrusion detection system data, is now viewable in Check Point management stations enabling centralized forensic analysis of SecureNet data along with Check Point's market leading VPN-1®/FireWall-1® data.

The demand on IT departments to do more forensic research with less money and analysts is placing a drain on already burdened security professionals. With the integration of the Intrusion SecureNet with Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1 data, security analysts can compare both intrusion detection system data and firewall data to get a complete forensics picture of attacks.

"Network intrusion detection is a critical part of any network security policy. We are pleased to award OPSEC Certification to Intrusion Inc.," said Upesh Patel, manager OPSEC Alliance. "SecureNet Pro will alert the VPN-1/FireWall-1 administrator when it detects an intrusion."

The full line of Intrusion IDS appliances all report to the SecureNet Provider monitoring and reporting console, providing a blanket of high-value, detailed information about the use of the enterprise network. This "highest common denominator" data from the SecureNet family of products provides greatly enhanced security and network intelligence to increase the overall security of the enterprise and the value and efficacy of existing firewall and VPN technologies.

"We are delighted to add SecureNet to our list of OPSEC certified solutions and further establish our commitment to integrated Internet security," said Ryon Packer, Intrusion Inc.'s vice president of product management, business development and marketing. "Enterprise customers and managed service providers now have the benefit of a full range of Intrusion VPN/firewall and intrusion detection products all certified in the OPSEC program."
