Thursday 28 March 2013

Viscount Systems Inc. (OTCQB: VSYS) today announced that the Company's Freedom access control technology is being installed at facilities owned by a regional bank with operations in Ohio, West Virginia, and Kentucky. The systems include Freedom IP bridges, Freedom servers and software, and will be deployed as a retrofit, replacing the bank’s existing access control systems.”

"This is the first deployment of Freedom into the financial services industry," noted Stephen Pineau, President and CEO of Viscount. "While we are continuing to make great inroads within the U.S. Federal Government market, sales of Freedom to a wide range of other vertical markets, including banking, schools and multi-tenant high rises, are also increasing. It’s important to continue to diversify our end-user base among government and commercial customers.”

About Viscount’s Freedom Encryption Bridge Solution

Freedom Encryption Bridge is the first and only access control system that allows entry devices (ID cards, RFID readers, biometrics etc.) to be connected to standard building IT networks without requiring expensive control panels that are programmed from a PC. Freedom changes the paradigm of IT friendly access control. It eliminates up to 80% of the cost of traditional systems that require the installation of control panels. And, it utilizes existing logical IT security software (LDAP) to replace both the control panel component and the software component of traditional systems. Freedom drastically reduces system costs while providing a much more secure software solution.
