Business Editors/High Tech Writers

MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 27, 2001

SAC Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:SACM) dba BIO-key(TM) International; announced today the retention of Benjamin Netanyahu as Worldwide Strategy Advisor to the Company's Board of Directors and executive management team. Mr. Netanyahu's expertise in security issues, fighting terrorism and international business will greatly assist BIO-key in positioning and deploying its biometric technology to safeguard the American public, prevent identity theft, secure networks and instill privacy. Both private and government sectors have expressed significant interest in the potential of the Company's biometric solution to secure computer networks, facilities and aviation and other public transportation.

Mr. Netanyahu served as Israel's Prime Minister from 1996 to 1999. During that time he reduced terrorism by roughly 90%. Mr. Netanyahu championed free markets and economic liberalization, embarking on widespread privatization, deregulation, and deficit reduction. During his tenure, inflation reached an all time low, while investment in Israel high tech sector reached all time highs. Prior to becoming the Prime Minister, Mr. Netanyahu served as Israel's ambassador to the U.N., Deputy Chief of Mission of Washington, and as an officer in Israel's elite commando unit where he was wounded liberating a high jacked airplane in Tel-Aviv. Mr. Netanyahu is a graduate of Sloan School of Management of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and worked as a consultant for Boston Consulting Group.

"BIO-key's biometric finger identification technology is an excellent foundation for enhancing security measures in combating terrorism, securing data dissemination, access control, and identity fraud," states Mr. Netanyahu. "I'm enthusiastic about assisting BIO-key's management in developing deployment strategies for the use of their technology within their client base. The tragic events of September 11th have brought about a heightened awareness for how biometrics can contribute to a more secure environment for all of us. BIO-key's capabilities are unique to the biometric market place and represent a significant advancement over its competitors."

"BIO-key is very excited and encouraged to have the expertise of Mr. Netanyahu available to us. The current addition of his book Fighting Terrorism is a terrific example of the insights he possesses to combat terrorism and secure freedom for us all," Jeffry Brown, CEO of BIO-key states. "Mr. Netanyahu's experience and knowledge in both areas- fighting terrorism and advancing worldwide business- are great assets for our company and we look forward to working with him as our worldwide strategy advisor."

"Over the last two months we have demonstrated BIO-key technology to U.S. congressmen and senators, the FBI, FAA, Department of Defense, Defense Intelligence Agency, the State Department, the White House Office of Science and Technology, U.S. Customs and others within the Federal Government," continued Brown. "We have also met with a myriad of enterprise prospects, systems integrators, and network providers. We have entered into evaluation licenses with several of these prospects and are in discussions with others regarding license agreements for BIO-key products and the creation of strategic partnerships. We believe the insights of Mr. Netanyahu will prove to be very valuable to these endeavors and expect to make further announcements in the coming months."

BIO-key biometric technologies are cost effective solutions, which can provide security and positive identification on thousands of airport travelers, credit card users, business operators, medical environments and corporate enterprises, and should be considered when evaluating other biometric companies such as Visionics (VSNX), Viisage (NasdaqNM:VISG) and Identix (AMEX:IDX).

BIO-key welcomes the opportunity to discuss its technology advantages in working with other biometrics or as a stand alone solution and invites interested persons to contact the Company for an evaluation at www.bio-key.com.
