Access Control Security Technology Company, Viscount Systems, Featured on Homelanddefensestocks.com

BURNABY, BC (PRWEB) April 16, 2004

Viscount Systems Inc. (OTCBB: VSYS) today announced the Company is currently featured on Homelanddefensestocks.com, a global research portal for investors following homeland security stocks. Viscount is positioned in the security sector with MESH, a next generation access-control product that converges all aspects of voice (intercom, paging, emergency), data (card access, elevators, alarms) and video (CCTV) in large complexes or series of complexes.


Homelanddefensestocks.com is a global investment portal that features news, research, homeland security links, featured and exclusive articles and companies participating in security technology solutions. Areas include: Airport Security, Biodefense, Biometrics, Defense, Internet Security, Integrated Security, Military, Border and Port Security. Homelanddefensestocks.com is a unique top ranked investor research portal on Yahoo and Google. Homelanddefensestocks.com has been featured on CNNfn, Business Week Online and America Press World.


Steve Pineau, Viscount President and CEO commented: "The release of our MESH server system has been very timely. We are now working on specifications for systems to be evaluated at a number of sensitive Homeland Security sites. The government officials we are working with see MESH as a lower cost, more IT compatible technology than the older Wiegand platform. Based on this response we have increased our Homeland Security marketing including this month's Border and Transportation Security Report sent to 15,000 US government security officials."


Pineau added: "Access-control technology, whether through MESH intelligent readers or our recent biometric add-ons, is concerned, at the highest level, with allowing the right people access to secure sites and keeping the wrong people out. To me, this is one of the very building blocks of Homeland Security."
