Marketwired
Defentect Group, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: DFTC), a developer and provider
of immediate response and intelligent messaging software solutions,
announced today that Campus StaySafe™, the Company's proprietary
safety and security SmartPhone application, is now available to the
students, faculty and staff of the University of California at
Berkeley. Sponsored by the Associated Students of University of
California (ASUC) and using security insights from Defentect's
partner MayDay360, the application is the first of its kind in the
industry.
Defentect's flagship SmartPhone application, DefenCall, was
created in 2009 using the Company's patented software platform to
allow a user to broadcast his or her GPS location from anywhere in
the world and notify family and key personnel in the event of an
emergency. At the request of the ASUC, Campus StaySafe™ was
initiated to provide localized security and safety information to
its users in conjunction with the core messaging and personal
emergency awareness features of DefenCall.
"This is the application we have been seeking for over two
years," reported Joey Freeman, External Affairs VP. "The
combination of MayDay360's security experience, the experience of
our local campus police organization, the desires of the student
body for information and the core application developed by
Defentect was exactly what we wanted. In Campus StaySafe™, we now
have the preventive information we want and the emergency
capabilities we need."
"We are delighted to have forged our first campus security
relationship with the ASUC and the University of California at
Berkeley," stated James Ackerly, CEO of Defentect. "The most
important feature of Campus StaySafe™ is that it combines pointers
about safety that apply to students everywhere, localized
information on programs operated by the University, and the
communications links to reach first responders immediately when
needed all in one application; and, it is available for download on
a device that millions of people already carry -- the SmartPhone,"
Ackerly went on to say.
