IDO Security Inc. (IDOI)

Really crazy story and sad result, just shows that hiring the right staff is so important imagine what they would say about customers.

[protostars]

As stories like this get out to the traveling public, it will increase the pressures against full body scanning. Though MagShoe is no substitute for the full body scan, such pressure will inevitably give IDO a strong boost.

[stockseeker30]

That is the hope for this stock in order to really allow investors to see it's potential, would have liked to see more airports put it into effect especially during the holiday season.

[mwest]

Yeah when I read that story I did know if I wanted to laugh or shake my head, but one thing is certain new hires at airports will not have to spend ridiculous hours learning to work complicated machines, this scanner is easy to set up and ready for use.

[protostars]

Ease of use is another important feature. This thing is an easy way to win some much needed public support.

[mwest]

and the fact that there is little room for error and little complication.

[stockseeker30]

Wonder how this product is doing in the correctional system like a courthouse for instance, that would be interesting to see it's effectiveness.

IDO Security, Inc. (IDOI.OB) Zeros In On The U.S.

IDO Security, makers of the MagShoe™ security system for shoes-on weapons detection, has already been successful in generating sales around the world. Their one-of-a-kind device that allows the quick and accurate detection of weapons in the shoe area, without requiring shoe removal, is being used in airports, prisons, and other high-security locations, in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia, and Africa. And now the company has in its sights the United States, one of the biggest security markets of all.

IDO recently announced that they have forged a distribution agreement with JEI, Inc., a long established distributor of electronic equipment for public safety and military intelligence, to market MagShoe to government agencies and other markets in the U.S. As part of the arrangement, JEI has submitted the MagShoe to the U.S. General Service Administration (GSA) for formal approval.

IDO Security has been looking for a strong U.S. distributor, seeking someone with a lot of experience in the public sector. JEI fits the bill, with over 40 years in the U.S. security and safety markets. In addition to U.S. airports, final GSA approval will open the door to all federal buildings, prisons, court houses, military bases, and U.S. embassies around the world.

IDO’s continued success is based upon the clear need that MagShoe fills, a low cost and efficient solution to weapons detection that does not require individuals being scanned to remove their shoes, a major complaint of air travelers. IDO says that MagShoe is also more accurate in detecting threats than current procedures, which are prone to human error. The system integrates seamlessly with existing detectors and procedures, is fast and fully automatic, detecting both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Wow great move on the part off IDO it seems as if JEI really could be the solution they have long been searching for, happy to see it all falling into place for them.

[mwest]

Great point and they have really locked unto the right target because as they stated in their press release, "JEI fits the bill, with over 40 years in the U.S. security and safety markets. In addition to U.S. airports, final GSA approval will open the door to all federal buildings, prisons, court houses, military bases, and U.S. embassies around the world."

[protostars]

Unsure how long the GSA process could take, but, if security agencies are enthusiastic about it, perhaps there's a way to expedite.

[mwest]

They are sure that putting their trust in JEI is going to bring them success, and think about the recognition it will bring to JEI as well, so I am sure they are looking to speed up the process in whichever way they can.

[stockseeker30]

When you consider JEI's experience with military intelligence, think about all the prospective conracts IDOI hopes will come their way now.

[protostars]

The U.S. is a huge security market, and one that looks to approaches that are minimally invasive and cost effective. Prisons are just one example. The U.S. has the highest rate of imprisonment in the world, along with the highest number of prisoners. Unbelievably, over 3% of the adult population is either in jail or on probation. A major market for IDO, though clearly a tragic social situation.

[mwest]

That is a staggering number, and therefore even so more the need to contain security and safety of all those involved.

[stockseeker30]

It not only protects the guards but also the prisioners form each other, by having everyone checked before they are put into population, this makes the process runs smoother and faster.

[protostars]

I'm thinking that's the main benefit. It's so mobile and simple to deploy that one unit can be moved around to fit a range of needs.

[armedical]

Thats a good point protostars, By it being mobile you can use them for large events, such as fairs and concerts too.

[mwest]

Slight decrease in the market today but as the new year comes around and the focus returns even more so to safety, these figures should change as IDO endeavors to push it's product forward

[stockseeker30]

I was just thinking about how this would come in so handy at Basketball Games, especially youth basketball games. It is inexpensive, easy to use and maneuver and very durable. I attended a game and wish they had something like this there.
