ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- CompuDyne Corporation (NASDAQ:CDCY), an industry leader in sophisticated security products, integration, and technology for the public security markets, announced today that CompuDyne's public safety and justice unit, Tiburon, Inc. of Pleasanton, CA, completed the installation of a new Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system for Brevard County, FL, Fire Rescue Department. Tiburon is an industry-leading provider of automated public safety and justice systems to meet the demanding and complex needs of law enforcement, fire, rescue, corrections, and justice environments.

Brevard County Fire Rescue (BCFR) replaced their existing system to take advantage of the new functionality and technologies provided by Tiburon's CAD solution. Operating from 33 fire stations throughout the County, BCFR serves the unincorporated areas of Brevard County, and the cities of Port Canaveral, West Melbourne, Palm Shores, Melbourne Village, Rockledge, Malabar, Melbourne Beach, and Cape Canaveral, home of the Kennedy Space Center. The new CAD system will allow BCFR call takers and dispatchers to respond, manage, and track emergency calls more efficiently and provide improved response to this national landmark.

The CAD system operates on fully distributed Microsoft Windows[R] workstations and provides server-independent processing of all critical CAD functions for a reliable configuration with virtually 100% system availability. Tiburon has successfully deployed this unique system architecture in more than 40 city, county, and statewide public safety communication centers across the country.
