FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                     MSGI CLARIFIES PILOT PROGRAM WITH NYPD


NEW YORK, NY, September 26, 2005 - MSGI Security Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: MSGI),
a leading provider of proprietary security products and services, today
clarified the status of its pilot program with the New York City Police
Department.

According to Chairman and CEO Jeremy Barbera, MSGI was asked by a Commanding
Officer of the NYPD Transit Police to develop a covert surveillance solution for
New York's subway stations, and the company signed a 60 day agreement for a
pilot program. Both MSGI and the NYPD Transit Police operated in good faith,
with the highest possible integrity, in regards to this program. However, in the
process of rapidly deploying the system, there was evidently some
miscommunication within the police department. While MSGI has not received
notice of cancellation from the NYPD Transit Police, the company understands
that the project is on hold until such time as proper authorization is obtained.

Furthermore, it is the company's understanding that the quality of its system is
not in question. MSGI's products apparently worked flawlessly and led to at
least one immediate arrest. MSGI sincerely hopes that the NYPD administrative
issues can be resolved so that the company can redeploy the system as soon as
practical. In the interim, MSGI is contacting other transit systems in major
metropolitan markets to offer the same covert surveillance product successfully
tested in New York.
