ARLINGTON, Va., March 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Homeland Security Capital Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: HMSC - News), a company focused on acquiring, developing and consolidating homeland security-related businesses, announced today that it has signed a letter of intent to acquire Milwaukee-based SecurityInc, a single-source manufacturer of active radio frequency identification (RFID) enabled security solutions for commercial and government sectors.

SecurityInc's three component companies generated approximately $3 million in revenues in 2005 serving a variety of industries. With over 1,000 installed systems, SecurityInc has one of the largest installed bases of active RFID product solutions in the U.S. We believe the company and its subsidiaries will be an outstanding platform to build a significant RFID-enabled security company in a highly fragmented industry.
