EVT signs strategic distribution agreement with leading security distributor in Russia

EVT, a developer of video management software, recently announced that it has received a large license order to deliver its Vertex networked video management and recording software to L.B. DeFence, a Russian subsidiary of Israeli Group L.B., a security systems holding company.  The initial order includes 1,000 licenses for Vertex networked video management software.  The licenses will be used for large-scale surveillance deployments in Russia.

EVT signed an exclusive distribution agreement with L.B. DeFence at the start of 2008.  Under the terms of the agreement, L.B. DeFence will distribute, install and support EVT's Vertex system, to its diverse customer base in Russia.

L.B. DeFence is a leading distributor of security systems with offices in Israel, Moscow, and Kiev providing modern security systems for the protection of key government and large enterprises, including the airports of Kiev, Moscow, Ivanovo, Taganrog, the Ministry of Defence of Russia and Ukraine, leading companies like Rosneft, Rainko and Mosvodokanal.

"The Russian video surveillance market offers a huge commercial potential for video management solutions.  However, owing to bandwidth limitations, the large size of the sites requiring remote monitoring and control of hundreds of cameras, it is a limited to very flexible solutions," said Mike Sutovsky, vice president Group LB.  "After thorough examination of the video management solutions available on the market, EVT was chosen as the best to meet the requirements of this challenging market."

"This agreement represents a major step forward in achieving revenue growth for EVT from the Russian market," said Oren Feldmann, VP of Sales and Marketing at EVT.  "This growing market is facing complex surveillance challenges, in securing its governmental, educational, banking, transportation and tourism complexes.  The combination of EVT's video management software and DeFence's extensive security experience should allow us to rapidly address many of these challenges as well as to help protect Russian's leading enterprises and government facilities."
