DALLAS, May 14, 2007 -- Safeguard Security Holdings Inc. (Pink Sheets:SSHS), a provider of corporate and industrial security systems and personnel, announces that its subsidiaries, Acquient Security Consulting Inc. and SYSTEMSgroup Inc., have been awarded contracts for the design and installation of a massive 23-site integrated security management system for the Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD).

The Tarrant Regional Water District (TRWD) provides raw water resources to more than 30 customers in the North Central Texas area, including the cities of Fort Worth, Arlington, Mansfield, and the Trinity River Authority of Texas. The project design includes a state-of-the-art, networked video, access control and communications management system, employing the latest IP, wireless communication and networking equipment.

"The project will provide TRWD with an integrated, high-end, intelligent security management system, operating on a single unified and network-based platform," said Mike Webster, CPP, co-president of Acquient Security Consulting Inc. "This integrated security system will enhance TRWD's overall security program to a level that will place it as a security flagship among the water utility industry."

Safeguard's CEO, R. Michael Lagow, added, "We are excited about the future opportunities that this project will bring to the Safeguard business units. Our business plans exhibit a merged set of services amongst our divisions and companies as the key element that differentiates our firm from the majority of the security providers. This is a prime example for our shareholders to see the results and benefits of such a plan."

Through its operating subsidiaries and divisions, Safeguard is a single source security solutions provider, integrating technical and physical security assets. The company is organized along three distinct lines of business; Technical Systems, Security Personnel and Security Outsourcing Solutions. Its operations are directed from its offices in Dallas and Houston.
