DDSI Digital Descriptor Systems, Inc. Announces First Commercial Market Sale of
New Fingerprint Matching System (FMS)

FAIRLESS HILLS, Pa., Nov. 15, 2001 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX) -- Digital Descriptor
Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:DDSI) a leading designer and marketer of digitized imaging
systems and biometric identification solutions for the criminal justice and
security markets, today announced the first non-criminal justice market sale of
its new Fingerprint Matching System (FMS) the only fully scaleable fingerprint
identification system in the world designed to take full advantage of the
Windows(r) NT/2000 environment.

FMS was first launched in September of this year, the system sale announced
today has been acquired by a county's Department of Health and Human Services
(HHS) for the purposes of identifying and tracking its homeless population.

The county will be integrating the FMS SDK with an existing application
developed in Lotus Notes, which contains all the necessary demographic
information. FMS will be used to track the homeless population that resides at
the county's shelter providing positive identification for staff members.

Digital Descriptor Systems CEO Mr. Garrett U. Cohn commented, "This sale was a
direct result of our plan to leverage our existing sales channel to grow our
business as we roll out new products. DDSI's history with this county goes back
more than five years. Our technology is widely recognized within the Criminal
Justice market, with an installed customer base of nearly 300 video mugshot
installs. That credibility should prove value to our sales efforts as we expand
our new FMS and "Identify on Demand" products into new commercial bio-metric
security and identification applications."
