Homeland Integrated Security Systems Completes `White Paper' for Savannah Port Project

Nationwide Teleconference Today at 4:15 EST.


ASHEVILLE, N.C., Aug. 23, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Homeland Integrated Security Systems, Inc. (Pink Sheets:HISC) announced today that it has completed the "White Paper" on the Savannah Port Project, and will deliver the results from the "White Paper" to more than 361 major ocean ports over 175 major commercial river ports before the end of September pending Government approval. The "White Paper" will also be delivered to major airports and other secured facilities.

According to the Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation, "Ports are often very open and exposed, and are susceptible to large-scale acts of terrorism that could cause catastrophic loss of life and economic disruption . . . perhaps no other mode of transportation is currently more vulnerable to future attacks than our Nation's Marine Transportation System."

The Port of Savannah's Garden City Terminal is the largest single terminal container operation in the U.S. with over 1,200 acres of property. There are up to 8,000 trucks entering the Port everyday. The challenge of tracking and pinpointing the location of each vehicle real time is daunting in its complexity. To help address this massive security issue, the Savannah Port asked Homeland Integrated Security Systems to pilot test the Cyber Tracker. The results of those tests are as follows:

Phase I. Criteria

Determine whether or not the GPS technology can function within the canyons of the ports.

Determine coverage; identify any part of the port not covered. Test the battery size and life.

Phase I. Results

The Cyber Tracker worked flawlessly. Coverage was good in every part of the port. Battery size and life are not issues; the Cyber Tracker charging unit's life is 16 hours, exceeding the average length of projected truck usage (2 hours) by 800%.

Phase II. Criteria

Determine the Data Collection, archiving, and storage capabilities of the Cyber Tracker solution; showing tracking and movement of vehicles at selected intervals over a 30-day period.

Phase II. Results

The Cyber Tracker met and exceeded all data criteria.

Phase III of the Savannah Port Project consists of GIS mapping and software finalizations and incorporates tracking devices deployed both on the port and in the immediate area surrounding the port. Homeland Integrated Security Systems owns proprietary technology and has the rights to use patents to some of the most innovative and sophisticated security products. The project at the Savannah Port is being conducted in conjunction with Georgia Tech, and the Maritime Logistics Innovation Center (MLIC).

The "White Paper" was completed by noted Wireless Technology authority Ed Legum. Mr. Legum is founder and president of the Edmond-Howard Network. Mr. Legum started his career with Tandy Corporation, where he rose to become the company's Audio Product Manager, responsible for 20 percent of Radio Shack's annual sales. An accomplished author and sought-after speaker, Mr. Legum works with wireless companies worldwide to increase their sales, increase their ARPU, reduce their COA, and improve their customer loyalty. His firm helps companies achieve these goals through highly-customized wireless sales training programs for the major channels of distribution: retail, indirect, B2B, and national enterprise.

According to the New York Times, the U.S. spent more than $4.5 billion on screening devices to monitor the nation's ports, borders, airports, mail, and air, the federal government is moving to replace or alter much of the antiterrorism equipment, concluding that it is ineffective, unreliable or too expensive to operate. The federal government will likely need to spend as much as $7 billion more on screening equipment in coming years, according to government estimates.

The Savannah Port Security Project revolves around Homeland Integrated Security Systems' revolutionary Cyber Tracker, which monitors drivers' activities to and from the port's berths. Cyber Trackers would be dispensed using an automated system that will integrate the Cyber Tracker via RFID to bills of laden. When the drivers are leaving the port, the units are collected, thus insuring that all vehicles entering a port facility are accounted for when leaving. The device also allows port officials to monitor flow both in and around the port, as well as speed control, stop times, and the ability to archive the customized reports. The Savannah port is the fourth-busiest port in the U.S., making it the ideal test site for the project.
