FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

            MSGI LAUNCHES SUBWAY SURVEILLANCE PILOT PROGRAM FOR NYPD


NEW YORK, NY, September 23, 2005 - MSGI Security Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: MSGI),
a leading provider of proprietary security products and services, today
announced that it has begun to install a subway video surveillance system as
part of a pilot program for the New York City Police Department (NYPD). The
program features covert wireless video surveillance engineered by MSGI to
observe criminal activity underground.

Multiple subway locations in the Borough of Manhattan will be monitored over the
course of the next 60 days, based on historical crime statistics, and the NYPD
will also use the new system as a counter-terrorism tool in high profile areas.
MSGI's secure, covert technology has already been deployed in three undisclosed
subway locations - leading to two arrests within the first hour of operation.

Jeremy Barbera, chairman and CEO of MSGI, commented, "This program builds upon
MSGI's success in deploying encrypted video surveillance systems for the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security and law enforcement agencies. To meet the needs
of the NYPD, MSGI designed a rapidly-deployable, mobile video surveillance
system that can be easily installed and utilized within an underground
environment. Our SafetyWatchTM software seamlessly controls the IP-based
technology platform, and the surveillance video is viewable in real-time both
above and below ground. MSGI's technology and customized systems offer
leading-edge, secure, surveillance solutions for a multitude of applications,
which we believe will be of interest to a wide array of law enforcement
agencies."

The NYPD system utilizes advanced surveillance technology engineered by
Innalogic, an MSGI operating company.
