Enterprise Air launches Emergency Response Access Manager (ERAM) solution for end-to-end security during an Emergency Response

NEW YORK, NY - March 31, 2007 - Enterprise Air announced today the product launch and immediate availability of its Emergency Response Access Manager (ERAM) system, a comprehensive technology solution for securing emergency sites and tracking personnel during every stage of an emergency response. The ERAM solution includes an integrated suite of mobile handheld ID card readers, portable equipment for issuing new ID cards, management consoles, and data connectors that securely link the system to command centers.

The ERAM system builds on Enterprise Air's lengthy experience deploying integrated security solutions and mobile equipment and interfacing with other security systems. The components of the ERAM suite can be readily integrated with other existing emergency response systems, including incident control systems, command and control, and other physical access control systems.

With ERAM, security personnel and response coordinators are able to perform the following functions:

• Verify ID cards for any emergency responder (including FRAC, TWIC, CAC, magstripe, barcode and other card formats)
• Track entry and exit times for every responder
• Issue new badges to volunteers, construction workers, and other participants
• Connect all portable equipment with or without a wireless network, enabling the creation of ad-hoc security perimeters at any location
• Report all data automatically to central command, enabling coordinators to locate responders and identify resource shortages
• Securely integrate with other security systems: access control, incident control and others
  

Enterprise Air has designed the ERAM solution to be modular, so that customers can choose which components to adopt and integrate with their existing systems. The solution is built to be highly secure and fault-tolerant, with ruggedized hardware that can withstand harsh physical conditions.

"So many technology solutions for emergency management are just incomplete," said Michael Hejtmanek, CEO of Enterprise Air. "We have worked very hard to build a complete, end-to-end solution for securing an emergency site - a solution that works in every phase of the response, from mobilization to triage to final recovery. And we've made compatibility our number one feature - so we can work with whatever ID card system, command console, or other emergency management system our customers have chosen to use."

New York-based Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) deploy Enterprise Air's Portable Credentialing System

NEW YORK - March 15, 2007 - Enterprise Air is pleased to announce the deployment of its Portable Credentialing System for use by a group of New York based Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT). The Portable Credentialing System will be used to enroll and issue credentials to CERT volunteers.

“We are extremely excited to have our software used to enroll CERT members and hope that this New York deployment will be the first of many other CERT teams to adopt our software” said Enterprise Air Chief Executive Michael Hejtmanek.

The CERT Program is a nationwide initiative, enabling community members to participate as volunteer emergency responders. The CERT program provides an organized way for first responder teams, and offices of emergency management, to register and train community volunteers.

Enterprise Air’s Portable Credentialing System (PCS) is a part of the Enterprise Air Emergency Response Access Manager (ERAM) suite, a solution for handling ID cards and credentials at an emergency site. The PCS system enables rapid issuance of new credentials at an emergency site.

PCS contains all of the components required to quickly enroll applicants, add certifications, and print badges. The system supports scanning documents and driver’s licenses, capturing fingerprints, capturing signatures, and photographing the applicant. The entire system is packaged in a rugged portable kit and can be easily interfaced to existing identity infrastructures. ERAM is a complete system for issuing & managing credentials, interfacing with existing identity sources, and verifying identity badges and tracking access using handheld devices.

Enterprise Air’s Portable Credentialing System provides the CERT teams with the following benefits:

• Common ID card which is personalized to fit the city’s ID card graphics guidelines
• Electronically verifiable credential to eliminate fraud, counterfeit, and revoked and expired credentials
• Completely portable system which can be easily transported to CERT meetings or training sessions
• System supports peer to peer synchronization so that many enrollment systems can be utilized and perform data merging at a later time
• Automates most enrolment tasks minimizing user error, typos, and reducing enrollment time
• Badges can be printed onsite or later at a centralized facility for mass distribution of badges
• The system can be integrated with any available identity infrastructure and already integrates with most physical access control systems out of the box.

About CERT
The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Program educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations. Using the training learned in the classroom and during exercises, CERT members can assist others in their neighborhood or workplace following an event when professional responders are not immediately available to help. CERT members also are encouraged to support emergency response agencies by taking a more active role in emergency preparedness projects in their community.

Enterprise Air launches HSPD-12 Solution Suite, making HSPD-12 ID cards immediately compatible with existing access control systems

NEW YORK, NY - March 6, 2007 - Enterprise Air today announced immediate availability of its HSPD-12 card rollout solution suite, a set of applications designed to make HSPD-12 ID cards compatible with the Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) already installed at secure government facilities.

The HSPD-12 ID card standard, a new mandatory federal program that defines a common identification card system for all federal agencies, can now be easily integrated with on-site PACS security systems and put into use at existing gates and doors. The solution suite will initially consist of three components:

• A PACS Data Connector that allows on-site security systems to automatically download HSPD-12 cardholder records from the central offices that issue cards
• A Provisioning Kiosk that enables visitors and traveling cardholders to quickly register their HSPD-12 cards at a local facility.
• A Hybrid Handheld card reader that enables security officers to quickly scan, validate and inspect the data from HSPD-12 cards. This enables security guards to electronically read data that is no longer printed on the face of the card.
• Enterprise Air's HSPD-12 applications are compatible with all popular Physical Access Control Systems (PACS), including Lenel OnGuard, SoftwareHouse C*CURE, MDI, and others. Enterprise Air provides network fault-tolerance and a scalable architecture able to support a wide variety of equipment and network configurations.

"We are really betting our company on HSPD-12," said Michael Hejtmanek, CEO of Enterprise Air. "The HSPD-12 standard isn't just a more secure card; it's also an opportunity to strengthen the value of existing access control systems everywhere. All it takes is a strong software link between the central and local systems. We're thrilled to be providing this new solution set, building on our years of expertise and our deep relationships with PACS vendors."
