Secure Fortress Plc (Tickers: PLUS: SCFP; XETRA: SFK) today announces it has been awarded 19 patent actions  by

the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the company's 'Secure Cable System' sold under the brand name

'Fortress'.   The  included patent actions describe a series of processes and procedures that  embody  the  key

differentiators of the Secure Fortress solution: secure cabling connections; secure communication  distribution

panels;  the embedded distribution cassette boxes; the included keyed communication cable of predefined  length

which  ensures ease in installation and reduction in production and installation costs and; the secure external

surfaces which significantly enhance the security of the system.



Alexandre  Clug,  Chief  Executive of Secure Fortress Plc, said: "These patents  further  solidify  our  unique

position  in  the growing secure structured cabling market.  The system was specifically designed  for  the  US

Departments of Justice and Defense. Our system not only meets the highest levels of security clearance, but can

be  installed in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost of traditional systems.  And because it's

a  modular  system,  it  can  easily be changed, expanded or even completely  recycled  and  moved  to  another

location."

                   The Directors of the issuer accept responsibility for this announcement.

security scheme, was specifically designed to meet US Department of Defense security requirements.  Its

patented design was created as a pre-engineered "plug-and-play" optical fiber and shielded cabling system that

is both more secure, less expensive and significantly easier to install in high security environments than any

traditional cabling methods currently available.
