BioDefense Corporation Accelerates Launch of MAIL DEFENDER IT as Mail-Based Terrorism Hits New York Times and Well-Known Banks

Market Wire, October, 2008

BioDefense Corporation ( http://www.biod.com ) is accelerating the launch of MAIL DEFENDER IT, the complete mailroom security solution.

On the morning of October 22, 2008, The Associated Press reported the incident as follows, "The New York Police Department is investigating a suspicious white powder sent to the offices of The New York Times.

"The newspaper told employees that the substance was found Wednesday morning when an employee opened a letter on the 13th floor of company headquarters in midtown Manhattan. Police were called to the scene and are investigating to determine if the substance is harmful."

The Associated Press also said, "The discovery comes after more than 30 letters containing a suspicious powder were mailed to Chase bank branches and federal banking regulators' offices in nine cities."

Because every day corporations, financial institutions and government facilities receive thousands of letters containing suspicious white powder, BioDefense Corporation has accelerated the launch of MAIL DEFENDER IT. The easy-to-use system is a safe, proven disinfection technology that kills anthrax, smallpox and/or ricin -- all very dangerous substances.

MAIL DEFENDER IT is an innovative combination of electronic energy, stainless steel and aluminum hardware, and advanced computer technology that processes up to 200 pieces of mail in a 45-minute disinfection cycle.

Apple Corporation's Mac-based technology allows system information to be utilized in a variety of ways for total security of incoming mail. Encryption, real-time monitoring and I-Phone communications allow mailroom technicians to process suspect mail pieces to neutralize naturally occurring or weapons grade biological agents or viruses. Business interruptions due to hoaxes are eliminated.

MAIL DEFENDER IT combines Microwave and infrared energy, intense ultraviolet, and broadbeam light. A rotating barrel containing the incoming mail ensures even distribution of the energies during the decontamination process. A complex computer algorithm controls the energy sources and automatic safety features deliver ideal, controllable performance.
