CANYON LAKE, Texas, Jan. 13, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- COPsync, Inc. (OTCBB:COYN), a software technology provider to law enforcement and emergency service professionals, announced today that it has received a contract to provide the City of Van, Texas Police Department with the Company's state of the art law enforcement software platform, COPsync(tm).
Van Police Chief Kelly Smith made the determination to implement COPsync after a recent demonstration of the software's capabilities. "After examining offerings from several other companies, COPsync(tm) clearly stood out by providing a complete mobile information sharing package. With the COPsync(tm) technology, our officers will benefit from the safety provided by real time information sharing, and our community will benefit from more efficient and proactive police protection," commented Smith.
The COPsync software is the first and only integrated software product that provides a real-time, nationwide information sharing network for law enforcement officers.

The technology assists in all of the activities that an officer could expect to encounter while on duty, in a simple format and at the touch of a button, allowing officers more time on the street instead of behind a desk.
"We are encouraged by the response and commitment we have been receiving among Texas Law Enforcement agencies. Once educated about our software and its associated benefits, the COPsync software becomes an obvious choice for law enforcement agencies," stated COPsync, Inc. CEO Russell Chaney. "Through the implementation of our software, the City of Van will become a safer place."
