IDO Security Answering Travelers’ Outcries Demanding Safer and Less Invasive Security Screening Methods

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL–(Marketwire – November 26, 2010) – IDO Security, Inc. (OTCBB: IDOI), developer of the innovative MagShoe™ shoe scanning device (SSD), continues to market its patented shoe scanning device (SSD), MagShoe™ 3G series across the globe. The MagShoe™ not only provides a safe and secure shoes-on weapons metal detection solution that can be easily incorporated to existing screening devices, but also provides a system that is comfortable and convenient for travelers.

“There has been an endless outcry from the public with regards to the new pat-down and full body scan procedures that have been implemented by TSA at the airports as well as pleas by the head of the TSA asking travelers for their patience and cooperation as we head into one of the busiest travel seasons,” said President and CEO of IDO Security, Michael Goldberg. “We continue to reach out to officials across the world with urgency to act on this outcry and provide travelers an increased security presence while also giving them sense of privacy and comfort at a time where security threats are at their highest.”

IDO Security developed a patented technology to change security screening from the bottom-up. The MagShoe™ offers a convenient step-on device that extends security screening and metal detection to include the ankles and feet, without requiring shoe removal. The MagShoe™ is ideal in venues such as airports, seaports, border crossings, courthouses, prisons, and even at schools and sporting events in stadiums.

“We live in an era where terror has affected someone, somewhere around the world, and we hear about it on a daily basis. Let there be no mistake, we agree that there is a need to increase security screening in airports, prisons and such, however this can be done in a less intrusive manner without having to have people feel violated and humiliated,” added Goldberg.
