Security Technology News
----------------------------------------------------------------
Mass destruction in New York and Washington, letters laced with deadly bacteria and threats of nuclear attacks have awakened a complacent United States. With these attacks, comes the clear imperative to harden the nation's defenses. From airports to railways, from small businesses to major corporations, from utilities and infrastructure to computer systems, security is being tightened. New deterrent technology is being developed. And it must be deployed without sacrificing civil rights and privacy. Security Technology News is a new newsletter from Business Communications Co. It is staffed by a team of specialized reporters and analysts whose expertise includes biotechnology, biometrics, mass transit, energy, electronics, computers, utilities, water systems and more.
Since September 11, stocks of security service providers such as Diebold, have been trading at 12 month highs. Many are struggling to meet new demand for trained employees and security guards. Manufacturers of surveillance and interdiction devices, such as Invision, report that sales have surged.
Biotechnology companies have been involved in a government funded "Molecular Arms Race" since 1999. Their stocks as well have climbed above the current economic doldrums. This year the Defense Department and other federal agencies are spending $1.2 billion to develop new vaccines against and antidotes to biological and chemical warfare agents. President Bush vows to inject an additional $1.5 billion into the effort.
Expect a wave of sales, a flood of government contracts and new solutions to protecting the safety of your employees and customers as security is stepped up. Look for new investment opportunities. You can rely on each monthly issue of Security Technology News to keep you up to date on the latest news and analysis.
