Industry = Telecommunications

Press Release Summary = Boundless Security Systems, Inc., www.BoundlessSecurity.com,
announces that it has developed new tunneling technology that enables operation of
Boundless\' comprehensive, advanced IP-based, ultra low bandwidth, outdoor, mobile
and temporary digital video surveillance systems on \"blocked\" wireless networks that
do not otherwise permit remote access to video surveillance cameras and systems
within them. Examples of blocked wireless networks include some of the world\'s
largest cellular and satellite networks, as well as increasingly popular, city-scale
WiFi mesh networks, and hundreds of thousands of WiFi hotspots.

Press Release Body = Newtown, CT, March 27, 2007 -- Boundless Security Systems,
Inc., www.BoundlessSecurity.com, announces that it has developed new tunneling
technology that enables operation of Boundless\' comprehensive, advanced IP-based,
ultra low bandwidth, outdoor, mobile and temporary digital video surveillance
systems on \"blocked\" wireless networks that do not otherwise permit remote access to
video surveillance cameras and systems within them. Examples of blocked wireless
networks include some of the world\'s largest cellular and satellite networks, as
well as increasingly popular, city-scale WiFi mesh networks, and hundreds of
thousands of WiFi hotspots.

\"Operators of wireless networks must protect their networks from excessive traffic
to provide adequate service to all users. Most wireless operators try to protect
their uplink connections to the Internet by writing contracts with end-users that
prohibit bandwidth-hogging, video streaming uploads. Some wireless providers go a
step further and, like operating pay phones that allow outgoing calls to be made
but block incoming calls, configure their wireless networks to block incoming
connections to servers inside their network,\" says Steve Morton, CEO and CTO of
Boundless Security Systems, Inc. \"Wireless networks span the globe, the need for
outdoor, mobile and temporary digital video surveillance is widespread and growing,
and more and more wireless operators are moving to further protect their networks
from abuse. Boundless has responded by developing new tunneling technology that,
combined with its unique, ultra low bandwidth, bandwidth-saving, video-on-demand
technology, not only enables full operation of its comprehensive, digital video
surveillance system on wireless networks that block others, but also avoids the
high bandwidth that causes problems for network operators.\"

\"Boundless\' ultra low bandwidth is a critical element,\" says Morton. \"Outdoor video
surveillance is a communications problem first, and a video problem second. Our new
tunneling technology circumvents the most common way that routers for wireless
networks are configured to block incoming network traffic to servers. Since we use
multiple techniques, not just advanced compression, to provide ultra low bandwidth
video surveillance, IT directors don\'t need to worry about Boundless\' flooding
their wireless networks.\"

In addition, Boundless\' new tunneling technology, when used with certain
third-party, multi-wireless-network routers, also dynamically enables the fastest
available wireless network to be used for accessing live and recorded video from
Boundless\' mobile, Multi-Stream Video Servers. Boundless enables widely available,
but relatively slow, cellular and satellite networks to be used in the countryside
to remotely access its live and recorded video, and faster WiFi mesh networks to be
automatically and seamlessly used in depots, garages, parking lots, stations and
terminals to rapidly access large amounts of its recorded video for archival
purposes.

Boundless\' new tunneling technology also avoids many tedious network configuration
steps required to use conventional video surveillance cameras, video servers and
digital video recorders on both wired and wireless networks. Such configuration
problems are particularly severe in enterprise-class applications, such as for
buses, emergency vehicles, police cars, and train cars, when one desires real-time
remote access to mobile, roaming video cameras and video servers in the
countryside, and then faster access whenever the equipment is temporarily within
range of any of a multitude of WiFi hotspots.

Background

Boundless Security Systems, Inc., www.BoundlessSecurity.com, is a privately held,
woman-owned small business. Boundless specializes in outdoor video surveillance,
where communications bandwidth is precious. Boundless\' core technology is its
proprietary, patent pending software, which Boundless provides turn-key, installed
and configured on Linux x86 computers. Boundless\' ultra low bandwidth, advanced
IP-based (not conventional IP-based), digital video surveillance system has been
used with cellular networks on four continents, and in mobile applications using
cellular networks on three continents.

Steve Morton is a serial entrepreneur and has a BSEE \'71 and a MSEE \'72 from MIT.
He has 35 years\' experience developing computer systems, 20 years\' experience in
digital imaging, and 15 years\' experience developing mission-critical
communications systems. He has been awarded more than twenty US patents and has a
special interest in the use of digital imaging for public safety.
