Suspect Detection Systems Inc. Announces Sale of Cogito Crime Prevention Technology to a Federal Agency in Latin America

Posted on: Monday, 1 June 2009, 07:46 CDT

NEW YORK, June 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Suspect Detection Systems Inc., (OTCBB: SDSS.), a leading developer of counterterror and crime prevention technology, announced today the sale of the Cogito(TM) system to a large Federal Agency operating in a major Latin American nation.

The Cogito system will be utilized by federal agents to combat a wave of criminal activity in the country.

The first Cogito units have already been successfully installed. Additional units are expected to be sold to the agency later in the year. Furthermore, the successful implementation of Cogito technology by this agency is expected to lead to sales at other agencies operating in the same country.

Cogito is an automated interrogation system used to detect the hostile intent of suspected criminals and terrorists. The system has multiple applications, and is particularly useful for interrogating individuals suspected of committing crimes, or being related to organized crime rings. The system is also utilized for pre-employment and employee screening, fraud prevention, and military intelligence collection. Cogito can easily be deployed to detect terrorists or smugglers at checkpoints and border crossings, and even within war zones.

The Cogito Remote Testing Function enables screenings urban as well as rural areas. This function allows the operators of the Cogito system in the referenced country to supervise tests taking place in remote locations while remaining at agency headquarters.

"Cogito is a powerful tool that can be utilized by any organization with advanced security and crime prevention operations from private enterprises to federal agencies," said Shabtai Shoval, CEO of SDS Ltd. "The reports we received from our customers which installed the COGITO demonstrate the impact of the system on the war against crime. Due to the success of the technology we expect this initial sale to lead to additional sales within this same agency as well as other law enforcement agencies throughout the region."
