POINT ROBERTS, Wash., Delta, B.C., June 29, 2006 - www.BorderandPortSecurity.com
(BPS), and www.HomelandDefenseStocks.com (HDS), investor news portals for border,
port and Homeland Security present "High Tech Border Security through Innovations in
Sensor, Surveillance and Detection Technology," a review of the current border
security environment. Industry experts Brian Ruttenbur, Equity Research Analyst with
Morgan Keegan & Co. Inc., Jack Mallon, Founder and Senior Managing Director of
Mallon Associates and Lou Kelly, President & CEO of The Security Network provide
insights into the drivers and technology currently in focus. Industry participants
L-3 Communications Holdings, Inc., Detection Security Systems, Inc., TraceGuard
Technologies, Inc., Technest Holdings, Inc. and Sense Holdings, Inc. reveal product
portfolios as they work to address border security issues.

While the President pushes for increased manpower along the borders, additional and
effective technology helps to supplement this need. Working to contribute to the
overall technology border technology portfolio are several firms developing a
variety of innovative security products to help protect the nation's borders.

SYColeman, a division of L-3 Communications Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: LLL), addresses
the specific challenges of border security efforts through Praetorian, the Company\'s
next-generation intelligent surveillance solution. The end result, according to
Corby Lawrence, Praetorian Director of Marketing and Sales, SYColeman, "would be an
integrated view of vast miles of borders, permitting the U.S. far improved situation
awareness leading to better security through earlier detection, visual and other
sensor confirmation of areas of concern, and appropriate response levels, with fewer
false alarms and better labor usage across the borders\' breadth."
Detection Security Systems, Inc. (OTC.PK: DSYS), an explosive and weapon detection
technology company, has a portable device called the Milliscope. Gabe Bitton,
Detection Security's CEO describes, "The Milliscope was designed to meet an
increasing demand within the security arena for an accurate and portable explosive
detection device that can be used alone or in conjunction with other screening
solutions. This technology will also help to reduce the incidence of false alarms in
concealed weapons detection and concealed explosives detection."
For industry participants looking to take advantage of this growing yet event driven
market, forward thinking is necessary to be able to provide relevant and innovative
solutions to security needs.

As Joe Mackin, CEO of Technest Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: TCNH) describes, "Technest
prides itself on being a nimble and responsive organization. The homeland security
industry is certainly event driven, but Technest is committed to focusing on the
specialty engineering niches we have developed. We flew over the World Trade Center
to detect hotspots and off-gassing of chemicals in support of rescue efforts. We
helped locate tiny pieces of the Space Shuttle Columbia, and we provided support to
rescue and recovery following Hurricane Katrina, to name a few."

According to Dr. Ehud Ganani, Chairman and CEO for TraceGuard Technologies, Inc.
(OTCBB: TCGD), "TraceGuard is dedicated to developing solutions and applications
that will help the industry become more proactive and less reactive to events.
TraceGuard solutions are specifically designed with four main objectives: 1) to
reduce the number of people waiting in line at airports; 2) to reduce the number of
security screening personnel required to man the checkpoints; 3) to be sensitive
enough to extract particles from fingerprints left by someone handling the
explosives, and 4) to be deployed in conjunction with existing screening
technologies."

The only effective way according to Dore Perler CEO of Sense Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:
SEHO; FWB: OUP) to confront the nation's security needs is through the intelligent
application and mass-deployment of secure -technology. "Sense is well positioned to
assist in these efforts with mature field-proven biometric identification
technology. Also, together with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, we are developing
patented MEMS-based equipment designed to quickly and inexpensively detect a
wide-spectrum of explosives and chemical warfare agents," states Perler.

As Brian Ruttenbur, Equity Research Analyst with Morgan Keegan & Co. describes, "It
is clear that terrorism is now something the U.S. will have to deal with on a daily
basis, and funding will continue to flow to technologies that help deter and
counteract terrorist activities. "
