NICE Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: NICE), today announced that it is a member of the Secured Urban Transportation - European Demonstration (SECUR-ED) consortium. The SECUR-ED consortium is comprised of 39 members, which include all the major stakeholders from across Europe.

Based on the best practices that are being developed together with the project partners, SECUR-ED will integrate a consistent, interoperable set of technologies and processes, covering critical aspects of transport security. The result will be the proposal of new standards for mass transit, and creation of solutions and process that can be implemented in urban transport systems in cities across Europe and improve response, prevention and preparedness.

SECUR-ED's rationale is to create a pan-European improvement in mass transportation security which promotes the entire public transport sector in order to better serve the needs of European citizens. SECUR-ED develops packaged modular solutions that are validated through local demonstrations. These demonstrations will serve as the product pilots that will run in Madrid, Paris, Milan and Berlin. These solutions are aimed to be transferable onto transport systems in the medium and large sized cities of Europe. SECUR-ED aims to promote the entire public transport sector as a whole, in order to better serve the needs of European citizens.

Yaron Tchwella, President of the NICE Security Group and Executive Vice President of Business Operations said, "NICE is very pleased to have many elements of our Public Transport solution as part of this consortium. The extensive experience that NICE brings to the consortium, will help provide best practices on how to integrate various technologies, processes and people management, to effectively counter security and safety risks. We are proud to be a part of this important and prestigious consortium."
