Defentect
Group, Inc. Announces Agreement With MayDay360
Joint
Solution is First Personal Panic Button and Security Service Of Its
Kind
NORWALK,
CT – June 15, 2010 – Defentect Group, Inc. (OTCBB: DFTC), a developer and
provider of rapid response software applications for safety and security
purposes, is pleased to announce that the Company has joined forces with
MayDay360, LLC, a corporation formed by Manhattan based Investigative Management
Group and Beth Holloway, mother of Natalee Holloway who disappeared in Aruba in
2005.
Leveraging
Defentect’s communications technology and SmartPhone application, DefenCall,
Defentect and Mayday360, have created a unique personal security and emergency
response solution. DefenCall is the first program for a SmartPhone
that enables a user to broadcast his or her location in the event of an
emergency. When the user presses the MayDay360 panic button, the user’s
geospatial coordinates and other pertinent information are sent to Defentect’s
proprietary DM3™ response system and relayed to MayDay360. A phone
call is automatically placed from the user’s SmartPhone to MayDay360’s support
team, allowing the user to speak with someone who can provide assistance.
MayDay360 is accessible worldwide; so no matter where a user is, the potentially
life-saving information will reach first responders so that action can be taken
within seconds.
James
Ackerly, CEO of Defentect Group, Inc., commented on the agreement by saying,
“Partnering with MayDay360 is a perfect example of how our messaging system can
facilitate a timely response to a wide variety of situations. Our software
platform combined with MayDay360’s expertise and resources in this market has
produced a security service that will offer priceless peace of mind to users and
their families. We are excited by the potential that this opportunity holds for
us both.”
“We are
pleased with the way that Defentect’s technology brings to life our concept of
providing security assistance quickly and from anywhere in the world,” stated
Ross Thompson, founder of MayDay360, LLC. “This agreement brings us another step
closer to providing as many people as possible with the resources that they need
to get help fast in a crisis situation.”
Beth
Holloway, Executive Director of the Natalee Holloway Resource Center and
principal of Mayday360 reiterated, “I have dedicated my life to the protection
of traveling young people and this alliance between Defentect and Mayday360
gives us all an important tool with which to accomplish that.”
