Safeguard Business Unit Provides Enhanced Training for Security Officers

DALLAS--(Business Wire)--
Safeguard Security Holdings, Inc. (OTC:SSHS), a provider of corporate and
industrial security systems and personnel, announced today that its subsidiary,
SYSTEMSgroup Training Academy, has expanded its security officer training
services to include Level IV certification, weapons certification and safety
training. SYSTEMSgroup maintains a full-service training facility with licensed
training instructors on staff that provide specialized training related to
security management, supervision, investigation, instructional techniques,
weapons training, and customized training in security management of corporate
internal affairs.

SYSTEMSgroup Training Academy is one of four accredited academies in the North
Texas area that offer this level of security training and detail. Training is a
core business unit within Safeguard, and through expansion of this service
offering, allows SYSTEMSgroup to train outside the Company to other agencies
that desire a privatized security force for large corporate environments, where
security is performed "in-house." This also provides opportunity for the Company
to gain additional market share in the local region.

R. Michael Lagow, CEO of Safeguard, added, "Training is a vital component of
SYSTEMSgroup and providing solid training techniques mitigates risks associated
in performing our security assignments for our clients. We anticipate additional
revenues in excess of $2 million this year alone."
