Exton, PA, September 7, 2005  – CAP Index, Inc., the world leader in crime vulnerability and loss prevention analytics, said it is demonstrating its CRIMECAST OnLine™ crime vulnerability service, its new RedFlag™ risk assessment software tool, and its Proximity Analysis™ mapping service at this year’s ASIS.

Jon Groussman, CAP Index President, said: “Over the past year, CAP Index has made significant progress on a variety of fronts.  First, we broadly introduced CRIMECAST OnLine™ to the market place, where it has been extremely well received.  We completed the first customization of our RedFlag™ risk assessment software tool for financial institutions, an initiative driven by our financial industry customer base.  And we continued introducing our powerful Proximity Analysis™ mapping service as a complementary environmental threat and mapping solution.

CAP Index said its CRIMECAST™ crime vulnerability data analytics have been adopted by hundreds of organizations – including banks, mass retailers, REITS, and government agencies.  Customers use CRIMECAST™ reports and maps to assess crime risk at specific locations and make data-driven security and risk management decisions.  CRIMECAST OnLine™ is designed to help users make faster decisions as well as conduct site studies in a secure online environment easily available to authorized users.

The RedFlag™ risk assessment software tool, which is powered by Sandia National Laboratories’ RAMPART™ software application, provides a robust, user friendly solution for security, loss prevention, and property mangers to survey multiple properties and identify security vulnerabilities and risks. RedFlag™ provides an objective measure of current conditions and highlights areas in the need of improved security.  RedFlag™ is available in an enterprise version as well as in a version customized for financial institutions to use at their management and operations centers and retail sites. 

Proximity Analysis™ is a mapping service that provides customized maps showing the proximity of specific sites to potential crime and terrorist targets (power plants, bridges, airports, chemical facilities), public infrastructure (public safety and health care facilities), and such business development sites as competitor sites, vacant land, and transportation arteries.
