FAIRFIELD, NJ--(Marketwire - July 14, 2009) - Virtual Ed Link, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: [ VRED ]), the marketer of the most advanced and comprehensive, integrated web-based Safety and Security Management System, announced today that they have updated their website ([ www.virtualedlink.org ]) to better portray their solution.

"The mass notification system services market has witnessed strong growth with overall market revenues reaching $357.5 million in 2007 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.9 percent for the period from 2009 to 2013," notes the analyst of this research service. "The government segment has the highest revenue contribution as citizens perceive the government to be the primary entity responsible for their safety and protection." The corporate sector comprises the second-largest segment while the education segment is the smallest segment. However, the education segment is expected to register high growth in the next two years and growth in the government and corporate sectors will remain consistent.

Today, leaders are faced with increasing pressures to secure their facilities and keep their communities safe and secure. Many organizations have implemented standardized lockdown procedures, however, organizations with open, expansive sites and more transient populations need more advanced emergency communications plans to deal with these challenges. Virtual Ed Link has developed an integrated system that supports lockdown procedures, provides emergency notification and integrates with building camera systems to support surveillance, deliver alarms and alerts, and enhance the awareness and responsiveness of security personnel and administrators.

For the past six months, VRED has been meeting and forming alliances with other companies who see the power of portal technology. We have increased our portfolio of safety and security resources through these alliances. The Virtual Ed Link solution allows organizations to leverage existing infrastructure investments for voice and data while adding video and mobility components for comprehensive; safety and security -- awareness, response coordination and mass notification.

(SWN is used by Fortune 500 companies, leading state, local and federal agencies and Global 1000 firms.) -- An integrated system that allows interactive communication to and from the SSMS administrator allowing for prompt response coordination and notification. -- A system that provides users with relevant real time information to base critical decisions is delivered through Virtual Ed Link™ Information Management. -- The ability to distribute Safety and Security Information through an Integrated Web-based Public Dash Board
