      <title>Breakthrough in Monitoring Convicted Terrorists in Prisons and Parole</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Releasing convicted terrorists can now be done safely and with confidence.</p><p>London, UK -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 02/05/2020 --  The UK prison and parole system has a huge problem in how firstly how to release convicted terrorists and secondly how to monitor them post release. Do they intend to commit further atrocities, are they planning an imminent attack, have they been further radicalised post release or are they sleepers? These are the questions that must be answered for each and every convicted terrorist. We have the solution and urge the government to take up our scientifically validated technology, VAST. <br />
<br />
VAST is a British company that has invented an automated screening device that can be deployed to rapidly screen large numbers of people. It is ideally placed to screen convicted terrorists before release as well as monitor post release behaviour and intentions.<br />
<br />
The technology has been scientifically validated by Kings College, University of London. It is based on polygraph technology which is already recognised and used by the Probation Service.Our system is currently being used with great success by Kent Police as a screening device,to monitor sex offenders post release.  It has also been purchased by the Internet Crimes Against Children task force in America, where they are using our technology to protect children from harm.<br />
<br />
VAST is an extremely powerful investigative tool that is accurate, cost effective, can be used in any language including sign language and the participant does not even need to speak as it is based on a recognised  known polygraph technique called silent answer.<br />
<br />
The VAST system would be very effective with terrorist suspects prior to release from prisons and to monitor their adherence to their parole conditions. As well as indicating current behaviour the VAST system can also be used to indicate future intentions. <br />
<br />
The advantage of the VAST system is that it requires very little training and can be easily deployed in any offender management organisation throughout the UK. Its use would drastically reduce the danger of releasing determined terrorists as well as monitor their behaviour post release.<br />
<br />
As stated VAST is currently being used successfully by Kent Police to manage the risk of sex offenders within this region. The trials have been extremely successful in identifying individuals who pose a risk to the community post release. <br />
<br />
We realise that uptake of new technologies by government organisations is difficult but in view of the grave danger posed by the release of radicalised, convicted terrorists I would urge you to look into our ground-breaking scientifically validated screening technology, it can save lives.<br />

      <title>New British Integrity Screening System - the Answer to Child Safeguarding Issues</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">New technology announced to help prevent abuse of children</p><p>London, UK -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 08/22/2018 --  A brand new British screening instrument was launched last week at the Crimes Against Children conference (CACC) in Dallas. Heralded as a new breakthrough in screening technology, VAST (Validated Automated Screening Technology) was shown to have had major success when trialled for child protection issues in the UK.<br />
<br />
Speakers at the conference confirmed that large numbers of people actively target Charities and Aid organisations in order to infiltrate their organisations and gain access to vulnerable young people and adults. The use of the VAST screening system would ensure that such people were identified long before entering the Aid sector thereby enabling the safety of victims of disaster throughout the world.  <br />
<br />
Calls have been made worldwide for charity leaders  to provide new safeguarding procedures to help protect vulnerable children from offenders – but are they doing enough? An innovative technology company, VAST Screening Technology Ltd, has created an integrity screening system that could root out potential predators fast – helping to make Charity organisations safer for young and vulnerable people.<br />
<br />
This new platform is able to provide organisations with bespoke integrity screening services  using a twenty-minute screening questionnaire-based procedure. This allows organisations to develop standardised integrity screening systems for a range of experiences – from pre-employment checks to employee management audits.<br />
<br />
VAST can provide trustworthy integrity screening for a range of child safeguarding organisations and works in any language making it ideal to screen charity workers both at home and overseas. The system gives instant, unbiased results using innovative and proprietorial algorithm technology, which allows charities to work quickly to identify those individuals who need closely scrutiny before embarking on aid work at home or abroad.<br />
<br />
This integrity screening service could help change the safeguarding landscape within UK and Global Charity Organisations. Charities could deploy this screening solution to help improve public trust whilst improving overall child safeguarding policymaking. <br />
<br />
Validated by King&apos;s College London, VAST was found to have an overall accuracy approaching 90% in truthful subjects and was proved to be unbiased, standardised and eliminated human error in interpretation of results, a major problem in integrity screening.<br />
<br />
VAST Spokesperson, Pat Mellody, believes that the VAST integrity screening system will help improve tarnished reputations within a range of child safeguarding environments – from charities, churches, social services, youth services and beyond. Mr Mellody states, "We are excited about the prospect of helping to resolve many of our nation&apos;s child safeguarding problems using the VAST system and working in partnership with a range of child-centric safeguarding service providers. It is vital that all charities and aid organisations throughout the world work with us to use this new technology to ensure the protection of all vulnerable children and people in their care."<br />
