                                  RISK FACTORS

     The securities offered hereby involve a high degree of risk. Prospective
investors should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to
the other information set forth in this Prospectus in evaluating an investment
in the securities offered hereby.

     The Units offered hereby are speculative and involve a high degree of risk
including, but not necessarily limited to, the risk factors described below. The
purchase of Securities is suitable only for persons who can afford the loss of
their entire investment. Prospective investors should carefully review and
consider the following risks as well as the other information contained in this
Offering Memorandum. Investment in the Securities offered hereby is highly
speculative. Prospective investors should retain their own professional advisors
to review and evaluate the economic, tax and other consequences of investment in
the Offering and are not to construe the contents of this Memorandum, or any
other information furnished by the Company, as legal or tax advice.

     Accumulated Deficit; Anticipated Future Losses. For the fiscal years ended
December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company experienced a net loss from continuing
operations of $6,881,840 and $5,261,426, respectively, and for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 had net loss of $1,479,786. The Company has an
accumulated deficit as of September 30, 1997 of $10,243,801. The Company
anticipates continued losses for the foreseeable future. The Company's operating
results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties including, but
not limited to, the effects of any writedowns, if necessary, of the Company's
capitalized software which had a value of approximately $3.3 Million as of
September 30, 1997. The Company anticipates significant expenses in its
foreseeable future, including research and development expenses, sales and
marketing costs, general administrative expenses and capitalized costs. There
can be no assurance that the Company will achieve sufficient additional revenues
to offset anticipated operating and acquisition costs of its U.S. operations.
Inasmuch as the Company will continue to have high levels of operating expenses
and its sales and marketing infrastructure development, the Company may
experience significant operating losses that could continue until such time, if
ever, that the Company is able to generate sufficient additional revenues to
support its operations. There can be no assurance that the Company's technology
and products will be able to compete successfully in the marketplace and/or
generate significant revenue. See December 31, 1996 Form 10-KSB and September
30, 1997 Form 10-QSB - "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."

     Working Capital Deficit; Renegotiation of Long Term Debt and Capital
Formation. The Company's capital requirements in connection with its development
and sales and marketing activities will continue to be significant. As of
September 30, 1997, the Company had a working capital deficit of $328,928. The
Company has no current arrangements with respect to sources of additional
financing. The Company currently does not have any line of credit or other
short-term credit facilities established with U.S. banks and limited short-term
credit facilities established with Brazilian banks. There can be no assurance
that additional financing will be available to the Company on commercially
reasonable terms, or at all. The Company currently has capital to enable it to
meet its obligations through January 31, 1998.

                                       5
<PAGE>

     The Company obtained its long-term debt financing from two Brazilian banks.
These loans bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum, plus an inflation
adjustment, which in 1996 was 10%. In January 1997, the Company completed a
restructuring of $2.9 million of $3.8 million of these long-term loans. The
revised terms of the loan extend the commencement of the principal amortization
to March 1998 and the amortization period from 35 to 50 months. The interest
rate charged on the outstanding loan balance remains unchanged. As of November
14, 1997 the Company successfully renegotiated the terms of its $.9 million long
term debt obligation. The loan is to be amortized monthly in various amounts
commencing in November 1997 with interest at 12% plus an inflation adjustment.
The loan also continues to be guaranteed by the chief executive officer of the
Company and is further guaranteed by certain of the Ensec S.A. maintenance
contracts, a rental agreement, and the commission contract between Ensec S.A.
and the former minority shareholder of Ensec S.A. On October 8, 1997 the Company
entered into an Agency Agreement with an investment banker to raise up to $5
million through the issuance of a minimum of 30 and a maximum of 50 units. Each
unit will consist of a five year, $50,000 10% secured note and between
18,000-22,000 Class B warrants. The number of Class B warrants to be issued
decreases from 22,000 depending on which tranche the unit holder enters into.
The Notes will be secured by the Company's software. The Notes will mature in
five years with interest only being paid on January 1 and July 31 of each year.
The Class B warrants will be exercisable at $1.25 and will be callable by the
Company when certain criteria are met. The units will be sold on a best efforts
basis. In connection with the offering, the Investment Banker will receive a 10%
commission and Class B warrants in the amount equal to 10% of the total amount
of notes to be issued. The aforementioned terms of this offering are subject to
change based on current market conditions and other factors. The Company is
responsible for all expenses of the offering. The initial closing of the first
tranche has not been scheduled and there can be no assurance an offering will be
completed. Should the offering be unsuccessful the Company would have to seek
other sources of capital in order for its U.S. operations to continue to
operate. The Company has commenced negotiations with such other sources,
however, no closings have been scheduled with the other sources. Should the
Company become unable to obtain additional capital and/or additional financing
in the immediate future it will not complete its acquisition plan and would be
required to reduce or eliminate altogether its U.S. operations which would have
a materially adverse impact on the Company's sales and immediate future growth.
See September 30, 1997 - Form 10-QSB "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

     Current Infringement Claims; Value of Collateral. In April 1997, the
Company was notified of its infringement of U.S. Patent No. RE 35,336. The
Company has reviewed the claim, and has proposed a settlement. On September 18,
1997 the Claimant rejected the Company's offer, reaffirmed its infringement
claim, asserted a new claim of infringement of U.S. Patent No. 4,218,690 and
reaffirmed the proposal set forth below. The Claimant's latest proposal, which
expired on November 17, 1997, provides the Company with a non-exclusive,
worldwide license, with the maximum cost of the license being a $75,000 initial
payment with a royalty payment equal to 5% on all future qualifying sales
through February 1998. The Company is reviewing this proposal and had requested
an extension until December 31, 1997 to respond. As of the date of this
Prospectus, no further discussions have taken place between the Claimant and the
Company. However, if the Company is unable to settle these claims or if the
Company is found to infringe on the Claimant's patents, the Company's financial
condition would be materially adversely affected and the value of the Collateral
could be significantly impaired. While these are the only infringement claims
known to the Company, future claims may be brought against the Company and the
value of the Collateral could be significantly impaired. In addition, the cost
of defending or settling them could be significant and have a material adverse
affect on the Company. See September 30, 1997 - Form 10-QSB "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition."

     Dependence on Significant Customers and Suppliers. Although the composition
of the Company's largest customers has changed from year to year, historically
                                       6
<PAGE>

the Company's revenues have been materially dependent on a limited number of
customers. During fiscal 1996, 3 customers accounted for approximately 38% of
the Company's total sales while in fiscal 1995, 2 customers accounted for 29% of
such years' sales. See December 31, 1996 Form 10-KSB Note A in Notes to 1996
Consolidated Financial Statements. While management expects the Company's
customer base to expand at an accelerating rate, a limited number of large
orders may continue to account for a significant portion of the Company's sales
during any given period for the foreseeable future. As such, the Company's
financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely
affected by a delay, reduction or cancellation of orders from one or more of its
significant customers or the loss of one or more of such customers.

     The Company currently relies on a limited number of suppliers of components
and other parts for its security systems. Failure or delay by the Company's
suppliers in fulfilling its anticipated needs would materially adversely affect
the Company's ability to deliver and market its products and services. The
Company may have difficulty in obtaining alternative contractual agreements with
the suppliers of such materials due to, among other things, possible material
shortages or possible lack of adequate purchasing power.

     Lengthy Sales Cycle. The sale of the Company's high-end integrated security
systems typically involves a significant technical evaluation and commitment of
capital and other resources, with the attendant delays frequently associated
with customers' internal procedures to approve large capital expenditures and to
test and accept new technologies that affect key operations. For these and other
reasons, the sales cycle associated with the Company's products is typically
lengthy and subject to a number of significant risks, including customers'
budgetary constraints and internal acceptance reviews, that are beyond the
Company's control. Because of the lengthy sales cycle and the large size of
customer orders, if revenues forecasted from a specific customer for a
particular quarter are not realized in that quarter, the Company's operating
results for that quarter could be materially adversely affected.

     Evolving Market; New Product Development; Technological Obsolescence. The
markets for the Company's products are characterized by evolving industry
requirements which may result in product or technology obsolescence. As a
result, certain companies may be developing technologies or products of which
the Company is unaware which may be functionally similar, or superior, to some
or all of those offered by the Company. As a result of all of the above, the
ability of the Company to compete will depend on its ability to adapt, enhance
and improve its existing products and technology and, if necessary, to develop
and introduce new products and technology to the marketplace in a timely and
cost-competitive manner. However, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to compete successfully, that its competitors or future competitors
will not develop technologies or products that will render the Company's
products and technology obsolete or less marketable or that the Company will be
able to successfully enhance its products or technology or adapt them
satisfactorily. See December 31, 1996 Form 10-KSB - "Business--Integrated
Security Systems."

     New product development efforts are subject to all of the risks inherent in
the development of new technology and products (including unanticipated delays,
expenses, technical problems or difficulties, as well as the possible
insufficiency of funding to complete development). There can be no assurance as
to when, or whether, new products will be successfully developed. No assurance
can be given that additional technologies and prototypes can be developed within
a reasonable development schedule, if at all. There can be no assurance that the
Company would have sufficient economic or human resources to complete such
development in a timely manner, or at all, or that it could enter into
economically reasonable arrangements for the completion of such products by
third parties. 
                                       7
<PAGE>
 
    Following the completion of additional products, the Company must
successfully complete a testing program for the products before they can be
marketed. Although management believes that its testing program is highly
sophisticated, unforeseen technical problems arising out of such testing could
significantly and adversely affect the Company's ability to manufacture and
market a commercially acceptable version. In addition, the Company's success
will depend upon its current and proposed technologies and products meeting
acceptable cost and performance criteria in the marketplace. There can be no
assurance the technologies and products will meet applicable price or
performance objectives or that unanticipated technical or other problems will
not occur which would result in increased costs or material delays. Also, there
can be no assurance that new technologies will not be developed in the near
future by the Company or its competitors which would render the Company's
present software obsolete, and thus would negatively impact capitalized software
costs.

     Product Protection. The Company relies on a combination of patent, trade
secret, copyright and trademark laws, together with non-disclosure agreements,
to establish and protect proprietary rights in its EnWorks(TM) product family.
These measures afford limited protection, and there can be no assurance that the
steps taken by the Company to protect these proprietary rights will be adequate
to prevent misappropriation of its technology or the independent development by
others of similar technology. In addition, the laws of Brazil, where the Company
maintains its patents and copyrights, and has pending patent applications, do
not protect the Company's proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws
of the U.S. The Company intends to seek copyright protection under U.S. law with
respect to some of its technology. While the Company believes that it would be
impractical and not cost-effective for anyone to attempt to copy complex
software and controlling hardware such as that used in the EnWorksTM product
family, unauthorized parties, nevertheless, might attempt to copy aspects of the
Company's products or to obtain and use information that the Company regards as
proprietary. The cost of enforcement by the Company of its information rights
could be significant, regardless of the outcome of such enforcement proceedings.

     Competition. The Company's products compete with those of numerous
well-established companies, including Sensormatic, Casi-Rusco, The Pittston
Brinks Group, Diebold, Pittway, Inc., Johnson Controls and Honeywell, among
others, which design, manufacture or market integrated security systems or other
security products. Many of these companies have substantially greater financial,
technical, personnel and other resources than the Company and have established
reputations for success in the development, licensing, sale and service of their
products and technology. Certain of these competitors have the financial
resources necessary to enable them to withstand substantial price competition or
downturns in the market for integrated security systems and related products. In
addition, many of the Company's sales of its products are anticipated to be
through the competitive bid process. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be awarded contracts or purchase orders for its products as a result of
such bid process. See December 31, 1996 - Form 10-KSB "Business--Products and
Services" and "Business--Competition."

     Dependence on Charles N. Finkel; Retention of Key Personnel. The Company's
operations are materially dependent upon the services of Charles N. Finkel, its
founder, President and Chief Executive Officer. The loss of the services of Mr.
Finkel would materially adversely affect the Company's business. The Company has
obtained term insurance on the life of Mr. Finkel providing for a death benefit
to the Company of $1,000,000. The Company also has entered into an employment
agreement with Mr. Finkel, which includes non-competition provisions. The
employment agreement is for an initial three-year term, which commenced in May
1996 and will automatically renew for successive three (3) year terms unless
either party provides written notice to the other party at least 90 days prior
to renewal. The success of the Company 
                                       8
<PAGE>

is also dependent upon its ability to hire and retain additional qualified
executive, technical and marketing personnel. However, there can be no assurance
that the Company will retain the members of its current management or that it
will successfully attract and retain qualified management, engineering and sales
personnel in the future. See "Management" and "Employment Agreements." On
September 21, 1997, Ensec Inc.'s Chief Operating Officer ("COO") tendered his
resignation. The Company is unable to predict what effect, if any, such
resignation will have on its U.S. operations on a going forward basis. The
Company intends to fill the COO position upon the completion of a proposed
acquisition with the CEO of the acquiree of such acquisition. However, there can
be no assurance that an acquisition will be completed and a new COO will be
hired. However, there can be no assurance that a suitable candidate can be
found, and if found, the Company can come to terms with such candidate.

     Challenges of Growth. The Company anticipates a period of rapid growth that
is expected to place a strain on the Company's administrative, financial and
operational resources. The Company's ability to manage any staff and facilities
growth effectively will require it to continue to improve its operational,
financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures, to install
new management information and control systems and to train, motivate and manage
its employees. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will install
such management information and control systems in an efficient and timely
manner or that the new systems will be adequate to support the Company's future
operations. Because of the complexity of its products, the Company has
previously experienced and expects in the future to experience a time lag
between the date on which technical and sales personnel are hired and the time
at which such persons become fully productive. In addition, the success of a
customer's project could be affected substantially by the quality of the
Company's post-sales implementation process and, in many cases, its maintenance
and service capabilities. If the Company is unable to hire, train and retain
qualified systems engineers and consultants to implement these services or is
unable to manage the post-sales process effectively, its ability to attract
repeat sales or provide references could be materially adversely affected,
thereby limiting the Company's growth opportunities. If the Company's management
is unable to manage growth effectively, such as if the Company's sales and
marketing efforts exceed its capacity to install, maintain and service its
products or if new employees are unable to achieve performance levels, the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition could be
materially adversely affected.

     Sales and Marketing Expansion. The Company's intention to develop a direct
sales and marketing sales force in the U.S. and expand its operations into
additional international markets will require significant management attention
and financial resources. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's
efforts to develop a U.S. direct sales force and international sales and support
channels will be successful. The ability to recruit and obtain the sales and
marketing personnel for its U.S. operations is dependent upon the Company's
ability to identify qualified personnel, offering competitive salary and
benefits, overcoming competitive disadvantages of short operating history in the
U.S., limited capital and lack of established sales and marketing efforts.
Alternatively, the Company will resolve some of its personal requirements
through the proposed acquisition. However, there can be no assurance that this
acquisition will be completed. In addition, International sales are subject to a
number of risks, including potentially longer payment cycles, unexpected changes
in regulatory requirements, import and export restrictions and tariffs,
difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations, the burden of
complying with a variety of foreign laws, greater difficulty in accounts
receivable collection, potentially adverse tax consequences, currency
fluctuations and potential political and economic instability. Additionally, the
protection of intellectual property may be more difficult to enforce outside of
the U.S.. In the event that the Company is successful in expanding its
international operations, the imposition of exchange or price controls or other
                                       9
<PAGE>

restrictions on foreign currencies could materially affect the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition.

     Control of the Company. Charles N. Finkel beneficially owns the vote of
approximately 60.55% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (without giving
effect to the possible exercise of any 2,703,333 outstanding options or warrants
and the common stock being registered herein) which, among other things, will
allow Mr. Finkel to elect the entire board of directors. Such concentration of
ownership could limit the price that certain investors might be willing to pay
in the future for shares of the Company's Common Stock, and could have the
effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of
discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire control of the Company.

     Political, Economic and Social Conditions in Brazil. While the Company
intends to continue to shift more of its operations and sales to the U.S., a
significant amount of its business will continue to be based in Brazil for the
foreseeable future. The Brazilian market in which the Company operates has been
characterized by volatile and frequently unfavorable economic, political and
social conditions. See Notes A and B in Notes to December 31, 1996 Consolidated
Financial Statements. High inflation and, with it, high interest rates are
common. Although inflation has declined in Brazil, it nonetheless continues to
be high. As of December 4, 1997 and for fiscal year end 1996, the per annum
inflation rate was approximately 7% and 10%, respectively, in Brazil (compared
to in excess of 900% in 1994). Brazil has also experienced significant currency
fluctuations. See "Currency Fluctuations."

     Inflation adversely impacts the Company's contract revenues which are
fixed and rise more slowly than costs or are otherwise not adjusted for
inflation. Further, inflation can erode purchasing power and thereby materially
adversely affect sales. Consequently, margins diminish if product prices fail to
keep pace with increases in supply and material costs. While the Company has
been able in most recent years to increase prices in local currency terms
overall at least as much as inflation, net sales in local currency terms may
nevertheless remain flat or decrease if, among other things, inflation
diminishes purchasing power, Although the Company expects that prices will
generally keep pace with inflation in the immediate future, there is no
assurance that sales volume will not decline or that supply and material costs
will not rise more rapidly than prices. See "--Currency Fluctuations" regarding
the impact of depreciation on net sales in dollars.

     The government of Brazil has historically exercised substantial influence
over many aspects of its economy. In recent years, the government of Brazil has
implemented important measures to improve its economy, although the current
climate in Brazil may create significant uncertainty as to future economic,
fiscal and tax policies. In implementing these measures, the Brazilian
government may in the future decide to effectuate a devaluation of the Brazilian
currency, the real, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company
and its operations in Brazil. In November 1997, the Brazilian Government
introduced a budget cutting plan designed to control Brazil's budget and trade
deficits. The plan, which includes measures ranging from tax increases to public
sector layoffs is designed to save the Brazilian government approximately $20
billion Reals. These proposed changes in addition to future changes in, or the
implementation of, such policies, and increased Brazilian political uncertainty,
could also have a material adverse effect on the Company and its financial
results.

     The Brazilian government has had some success in controlling inflation,
although there can be no assurance that this will continue. In addition, in
recent years there have been allegations of government improprieties which may
have adversely affected its ability to implement a successful economic program.
Midway through 1994, the government of Brazil launched an economic stabilization
program, the Real Plan, which improved economic conditions in Brazil and created
                                       10
<PAGE>

a new currency, the real. Inflation, which had been at double-digit monthly
rates, began to decrease, purchasing power improved and the consumption of goods
and services began to increase. Since December 1994, however, the Brazilian real
has depreciated slightly. See "--Currency Fluctuations." The Company is not able
to predict the long-term effects that the Real Plan and related economic
measures may have upon the Brazilian economy and financial markets and the
real/U.S. dollar exchange rate in general, or upon the Company. In addition,
although the inflation rate in Brazil has declined significantly since the
adoption of the Real Plan, there can be no assurance that the Company's
operations in Brazil will not be adversely affected by renewed hyperinflation.

     In view of the foregoing, Subscribers should recognize that the Company's
business, earnings, asset values and prospects may be materially adversely
affected by developments with respect to inflation, interest rates, currency
fluctuations, government policies, price and wage controls, exchange control
regulations, taxation, expropriation, social instability, and other political,
economic or diplomatic developments in or affecting Brazil. Although the Company
has been able to operate successfully in Brazil for over 13 years, it has no
control over such conditions and developments, and can provide no assurance that
such conditions and developments will not adversely affect the Company's
operations or the price of or market for the offered Securities.

     Currency Fluctuations. Because the majority of the Company's consolidated
cash flow from operations is generated in the currency of Brazil, the real, the
Company is subject to the effects of its fluctuations in its value. Brazil has
historically experienced significant currency fluctuations relative to the U.S.
dollar. Although the magnitude of the recent fluctuations has diminished the
exchange rate of the Brazilian real was 1.09, 1.04 and 1.11 reais (plural of
real) per U.S. dollar at December 1, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Such fluctuations have generally not materially adversely affected
the profitability of the Company, as Brazilian revenues and substantially all
related costs of sales and expenses are incurred in the real. However, in
certain cases, such fluctuations, particularly depreciations which are
accompanied by high inflation and declining purchasing power, can adversely
affect sales as well as income to the Company and its stockholders. Because the
Company's financial statements are prepared in U.S. dollars, net sales (and
other financial statement accounts, including net income) tend to increase when
the rate of inflation in each country has exceeded the rate of depreciation
against the U.S. dollar. Alternatively, net sales and other financial statement
accounts generally are adversely affected if and to the extent that the rate of
depreciation exceeds the rate of inflation in any period. In addition, when and
if dividends are distributed to the Company by Ensec, S.A., the Company's
Brazilian subsidiary, the payments are converted from reais to U.S. dollars, and
any future fluctuations of the real relative to the U.S. dollar could result in
a loss of dividend income to the Company and ultimately to the Company's
stockholders.

     In periods of high inflation and interest rates, borrowings denominated in
the real and indexed to the U.S. dollar or other foreign currencies place the
risk of depreciation on the borrower. In periods of fluctuation, U.S.
dollar-indexed borrowings can generate income statement losses or charges
against stockholders' equity. The Company could be materially adversely affected
by a depreciation in the real if it becomes necessary to increase dollar-indexed
indebtedness in order to provide working capital, finance capital expenditures
or for other purposes. Currency translation gains and losses may contribute to
fluctuations in the Company's results of operations. The Company has engaged in
currency hedging transactions on a limited basis and in the future may undertake
currency hedging to reduce currency exposure and spreads. However, there can be
no assurance that hedging transactions, if entered into, would materially reduce
the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on the Company's
                                       11

results of operations. See 1996 December 31, 1996 Form 10-KSB - "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

     No Anticipated Dividends; Reliance on Subsidiaries. Payment of dividends on
the Common Stock is within the discretion of the Board of Directors of the
Company and will depend upon the Company's earnings, its capital requirements
and financial condition, and other relevant factors. The Company does not
currently intend to declare any dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable
future. See December 31, 1996 Form 10-KSB - "Dividend Policy."

     As a holding company, the Company's ability to pay operating expenses, debt
obligations and dividends materially depends upon receipt of sufficient funds
from its subsidiaries. Brazil does not currently restrict the remittance of
dividends paid by Ensec, S.A. to the Company, although Brazil has laws in effect
which provide limitations on the exchange of local currency for foreign currency
at official rates of exchange. Brazil has imposed more restrictive exchange
controls in the past, and no assurance can be given that more restrictive
exchange control policies will not be imposed in the future. The enacting of
such restrictive exchange controls would materially adversely affect the ability
of Ensec, S.A. to pay dividends to the Company. The payment of dividends by
Ensec, S.A. is also subject to statutory restrictions or restrictive covenants
in debt instruments in certain instances and is contingent upon the earnings and
cash flow of and permitted borrowings by Ensec, S.A.

     Possible Volatility of Stock Price. While the Company's Common Stock is
currently listed on the Nasdaq-SmallCap Market ("Nasdaq SCM") Nasdaq SCM
currently requires, among others, (i) either Net Tangible Assets of $2,000,000,
Market Capitalization of $35,000,000 or Net Income (in last fiscal year or 2 of
last 3 fiscal years) of $500,000, and (ii) $1.00 minimum bid price. However, no
assurance can be made that the Company will continue to be able to satisfy such
listing maintenance criteria in the future, as such, the Common Stock may be
delisted from quotation on the Nasdaq-SCM and will have to be quoted on the
over-the-counter electronic bulletin board. Consequently an investor could find
it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the
price of, the Company's Securities. This stock market generally, and the
technology sector in particular, has experienced and is likely to experience in
the future significant price and volume fluctuations which could adversely
affect the market price of the Common Stock without regard to the significant
fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly operating results,
shortfalls in sales or earnings below analyst estimates, developments in the
electronics and security industries, stock market conditions and other factors.
There can be no assurance that the market price of the Common Stock will not
experience significant fluctuations or decline below the initial public offering
price.

     Shares Eligible for Future Sale. The Company has 5,656,250 shares of Common
Stock outstanding, (without giving effect to shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of 2,703,333 options and warrants) of which 3,425,000 are not
registered and are held by "affiliates" of the Company within the meaning of the
Act and are subject to the resale limitations of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Act.

     The Restricted Shares were issued by the Company in private transactions in
reliance upon one or more exemptions contained in the Act. The Restricted Shares
are deemed to be "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144
promulgated under to the Act and may be publicly sold only if registered under
the Act or held by the holder thereof for a prescribed amount of time. As of the
date of this Offering, all of the Restricted Shares will have been held for more
than one year and are eligible for public sale in accordance with the
requirements of Rule 144. Mr. Charles N. Finkel, President and Chief Executive
                                       12
<PAGE>

Officer of the Company and beneficial owner of all 3,425,000 shares of Common
Stock has agreed with the Underwriter of the Company's initial public offering
not to offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of 3,425,000 shares of
Common Stock until after September 24, 1998 without the representative's
consent. In addition, Mr. Finkel has agreed with the Underwriter not to offer,
sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of 800,000 of the shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by him until September 24, 2006, without the
representative's consent; provided, however, that such restrictions will be
released with respect to 500,000 of such shares if the Company reports income
before income taxes in excess of $4,000,000 for fiscal 1997 and with respect to
the remaining 300,000 shares if the Company reports income before income taxes
in excess of $7,000,000 for fiscal 1998.

     It is not possible to foresee all risk factors which may affect the
Company. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the Company will effectuate
successfully its current business plan. Each Subscriber is encouraged to analyze
carefully the risks and merits of an investment in the Units and should take
into consideration when making such analysis, among others, the risk factors
discussed above.

                                   THE COMPANY

General

     The Company, through its operating companies Ensec Inc., a U.S. subsidiary
incorporated in Florida, and Ensec EngenharIa e Sistemas de Seguranca, S.A.
(Ensec, S.A.), a Brazilian subsidiary, designs, develops, assembles, sells,
installs and services security systems for large commercial or governmental
facilities, ranging from single function installations to high-end integrated
security systems. The Company's high-end integrated systems are based on its
proprietary software and related hardware which permit multiple devices or
systems to be combined into a unified system covering multiple sites. Since its
inception , the Company has installed approximately 400 systems. nearly all of
which have been in Brazil, for large corporations (such as Bosch, Caterpillar,
Eastman Kodak, General Motors, IBM, Microsoft and Texaco) and government
agencies (such as the Brazilian Bureau of Mint & Engraving and the Central Bank
of Brazil).

     In 1995, the Company completed the development of its second-generation
state-of-the-art, integrated security system; the EnWorks(TM) product family
using object oriented design methodology and real time operating system. The
Company dedicated four years and over $5 million to the development of the
flagship product in the EnWorks(TM) product family, the En2000(TM) system, and
continues to expand the capabilities of this system by adding features. The
Company's high-end integrated security systems are based on distributive
intelligence architecture and proprietary software that permit the integration
of various security devices or systems into a unified system operating through
the use of graphical user interfaces. Distributive intelligence architecture
permits individual components of the Company's integrated security system to
process information independently so that such components may continue to
operate even when the central processor or another component in the system
malfunctions or is rendered inoperative. In addition, an integrated security
system that uses distributive intelligence architecture can operate more
efficiently because individual components are able to complete independent tasks
simultaneously.

     The Company began marketing its En2000(TM) system in 1995 at which time the
Company was selected by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey through a
competitive bid process to provide the new integrated access control system for
the parking facilities located in the World Trade Center. Other significant
                                       13
<PAGE>

customer contracts awarded to the Company's U.S. operations for its En2000(TM)
System include the EDS headquarters in Texas and its other facilities located in
Sacramento, California and Middlesex, United Kingdom; A.D.T. Securities Systems,
Inc. ("ADT") headquarters in Boca Raton, Florida and its facility in Denver,
Colorado and Lockheed Martin facility in Orlando, Florida. In 1996, the Company
entered into contracts to install 16 additional En2000(TM) systems. During the
first nine months of 1997, the Company entered into contracts to install [10]
En2000(TM) systems. In addition, the Company currently has [44] service and
maintenance contracts with customers who have purchased the Company's products,
covering [50] installations. Other examples of the Company's completed projects
involving prior versions of the Company's systems include (i) an integrated
security system for the Brazilian Bureau of Mint & Engraving; (ii) an access
control. time and attendance, closed-circuit television ("CCTV") and fleet
management system for Companhia Vale do Rio Doce, a large Brazilian iron ore
mining company with over 15,500 employees; and (iii) a postal tracking and
tracing system for the Brazilian Postal Service.

     The Company's systems have the capability of being integrated thereby
enabling communication between otherwise disparate subsystems and include the
following functions based on a customer's tailored needs:

 o Access Control     o Time and Attendance           o Facilities Management
 o Alarm Monitoring   o Guard Tours                   o Parking Facility Control
 o Data Security      o Restaurant Revenue Reporting  o CCTV
 o Vehicle Tracking   o Elevator Control              o Video Badging

     The Company recognizes its revenue upon delivery and acceptance for normal
product sales, which are those systems which do not require significant software
customization and are completed within relatively short time-frames. Revenues
from those turnkey systems that require significant customization are recognized
as contract revenues under the percentage of completion method. Earned revenue
is based on the percentage that incurred costs to date bear to total costs after
giving effect to the most recent estimates of total cost. Revenue received under
maintenance contracts is recognized over the term of the related agreements.

     In Brazil, normal product sales are due fifteen days from shipment for
maintenance contracts fifteen days from the beginning of the monthly contract
period of the contract and for the turnkey projects (i) twenty percent of the
contract value is generally required upon signing, (ii) payments for product
portion of the project are due fifteen days from shipment and (iii) payments for
installation and development revenue are received as negotiated but generally at
specific milestones within the project (including final acceptance). Turnkey
projects generally last approximately four months and down payments reduce
amounts to be received upon final acceptance.

     In the United States, normal product sales are due thirty days from
shipment, for its maintenance contract thirty-five days from the beginning of
the monthly contract period of the contract and for the turnkey projects
generally one-third of the portion of the contract that relates to development

                            DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

General

     The following description of the material terms of the Common Stock is
subject to the Florida Business Corporation Act (the "FBCA") and to the
provisions contained in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the
"Articles of Incorporation"), and By-laws, as amended, copies of which have been
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. See "Available Information."

     The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 20,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, and 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock,
par value $.01 per share (the "Preferred Stock"). As of December 4, 1997, there
were outstanding 5,656,250 shares of Common Stock and no shares of Preferred
Stock.

Common Stock

     The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, no
par value per share, of which as of the date of this Prospectus, 5,656,250
shares of Common Stock are outstanding. All outstanding shares of Common Stock
are, and all shares of Common Stock to be outstanding upon completion of this
offering will be, validly authorized and issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.

     Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all
matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and do not have cumulative voting
rights. Accordingly, holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock
entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors
standing for election. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably
such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of
funds legally available therefor, subject to any preferential dividend rights of
any outstanding Preferred Stock. Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of the Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably the
net assets of the Company available after the repayment of all debts and other
liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding Preferred Stock.
Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or
conversion rights. The outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares
offered by the Company in this Offering will be, when issued and paid for, fully
paid and nonassessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of
Common Stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the
holders of shares of any series of Preferred Stock which the Company may
designate and issue in the future.
<PAGE>

Preferred Stock

     The Board of Directors has the authority, without further action of the
stockholders of the Company, to issue up to an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock in one or more series and to fix or alter the designations,
preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the
shares of each such series thereof, including the dividend rights, dividend
rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including sinking
fund provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the
number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series.

     The Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, can issue Preferred
Stock with and conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power of
holders of Common Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock may have the effect of
delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. Except
pursuant to the terms of a proposed private offering, the Company has no present
plans to issue any shares of Preferred Stock.

Public Warrants

     The Public Warrants were issued in registered form pursuant to an agreement
dated September 25, 1996 and as amended October 4, 1996 (the "Warrant
Agreement"), between the Company, Rickel & Associates, Inc. (the
"Representative") and Janssen-Meyers Associates, L.P., (collectively the
"Underwriters") and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the "Warrant
Agent"). The following discussion of certain terms and provision of the Public
Warrants is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of
the Statement of Rights, Terms and Conditions for each Public Warrant which
forms a part of the Warrant Agreement.

     One Public Warrant represents the right of the registered holder thereof to
purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share,
subject to adjustment (the "Purchase Price"). The Public Warrants will be
entitled to the benefits of adjustments in their respective Purchase Prices and
in the number of shares of Common Stock and/or other securities deliverable upon
the exercise thereof in the event of a stock dividend, stock split,
reclassification, reorganization, consolidation or merger.

     Unless previously called for repurchase, the Public Warrants may be
exercised commencing September 25, 1997 until the close of business on September
25, 2001 (the "Expiration Date"). On or after the Expiration Date, the Public
Warrants automatically become wholly void and of no value. The Company may at
any time extend the Expiration Date of all outstanding Public Warrants, for such
increased periods of time as it may determine. The Public Warrants may be
exercised at the office of the Warrant Agent.

     The Company has the right at any time beginning September 25, 1997, or such
earlier date as the Representative may determine, to repurchase the Public
Warrants at a price of $.10 each, by written notice mailed 30 days prior to the
repurchase date to each Public Warrant holder at his address as it appears on
the books of the Warrant Agent. Such notice may only be given within three days
<PAGE>

following any period of 20 consecutive trading days during which the
high closing bid or trading price of the shares of Common Stock (if then traded
on the Nasdaq-SCM or on a national securities exchange) equals or exceeds $10.50
per share, subject to adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits and the
like. If Public Warrants are called for repurchase, they must be exercised prior
to the close of business son the date immediately preceding the date of any such
repurchase or the right to purchase the applicable shares of Common Stock is
forfeited.

     No Public Warrant will be exercisable unless at the time of exercise the
Company had filed with the Commission a current prospectus covering the shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Public Warrant and such shares of
Common Stock have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the
securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of such Public Warrant.
The Company will use its best efforts to have all such shares of Common Stock so
registered or qualified on or before the exercise date and to maintain a current
prospectus relating thereto until the expiration of the Public Warrants, subject
to the terms of the Warrant Agreement. While it is the Company's intention to do
so, there is no assurance that it will be able to so do.

     No holder, as such, of Public Warrants shall be entitled to vote or receive
dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of Common Stock for any purposes
whatsoever until such Public Warrants have been duly exercised and the Purchase
Price has been paid in full.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

     The validity of the issuance of the securities offered hereby will be

                                     EXPERTS

     The audited consolidated financial statements of Ensec International, Inc.
as of December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, and for each of two fiscal years
in the period ended December 31, 1996, incorporated by reference into this
Prospectus, have been audited by GrantThornton, LLP, independent certified
public accountants, as indicated in their reports with respect thereto, and are
included herein in reliance upon the authority of said firm as experts in giving
said reports.

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     The Articles of Incorporation of the Company provide that every director
and every officer of the corporation, every former director and former officer
of the corporation, and every person who may have

                                       20
<PAGE>

served at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of another
corporation in which the corporation owns shares of capital stock or of which it
is a creditor, and the heirs, executors, administrators, and assignors of all of
the above persons shall be indemnified by the corporation for expenses actually
and necessarily incurred by him in connection with the defense of any action,
suit, or proceeding to which he may be a party by reason of his being or having
been a director or officer of the corporation or of such other corporation
regardless of whether or not he continues to be a director or officer at the
time of incurring such expenses, except with respect to matters as to which he
shall be finally adjudged in such action, suit, or proceeding to be liable for
negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty. The rights of
indemnification set forth in the Articles of Incorporation shall not be
exclusive of any other rights to which such person may be entitled by law or
otherwise.

     The provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act that authorize
indemnification do not eliminate the duty of care of the director and, in
appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms
of nonmonetary relief will remain available under Florida law. In addition, each
director will continue to be subject to liability for: (a) violations of
criminal laws, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; (b)
deriving an improper personal benefit from a transaction; (c) voting for, or
assenting to, an unlawful distribution; and (d) willful misconduct or conscious
disregard for the best interests of the Company in a proceeding by, or in the
right of, the Company to procure a judgment in its favor or in a proceeding by,
or in the right of, a shareholder. The statute does not effect the director's
responsibilities under any other law.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

Item 15.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         The Articles of Incorporation of the Company provide that every
director and every officer of the corporation, every former director and former
officer of the corporation, and every person who may have served at the request
of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation in which the
corporation owns shares of capital stock or of which it is a creditor, and the
heirs, executors, administrators, and assignors of all of the above persons
shall be indemnified by the corporation for expenses actually and necessarily
incurred by him in connection with the defense of any action, suit, or
proceeding to which he may be a party by reason of his being or having been a
director or officer of the corporation or of such other corporation regardless
of whether or not he continues to be a director or officer at the time of
incurring such expenses, except with respect to matters as to which he shall be
finally adjudged in such action, suit, or proceeding to be liable for negligence
or misconduct in the performance of his duty. The rights of indemnification set
forth in the Articles of Incorporation shall not be exclusive of any other
rights to which such person may be entitled by law or otherwise.

         The provisions of the Florida Business Corporation Act that authorize
indemnification do not eliminate the duty of care of the director and, in
appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms
of nonmonetary relief will remain available under Florida law. In addition, each
director will continue to be subject to liability for: (a) violations of
criminal laws, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; (b)
deriving an improper personal benefit from a transaction; (c) voting for, or
assenting to, an unlawful distribution; and (d) willful misconduct or conscious
disregard for the best interests of the Company in a proceeding by, or in the
right of, the Company to procure a judgment in its favor or in a proceeding by,
or in the right of, a shareholder. The statute does not effect the director's
responsibilities under any other law.

Item 17.  Undertakings.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officer, and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

         The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

         (a)      The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:

                  (i) to file, during any period in which it offers or sells
securities, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include
any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution;

                  (ii) that, for determining any liability under the Securities
Act, treat each such post-effective amendment as a new Registration Statement of
the securities offered at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof;

                  (iii) to file a post-effective amendment to remove from
registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the
offering; and

                  (iv) to include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement.

         (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's Annual Report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                  (the "Company"), 591,250 Shares of Common Stock

Gentlemen:

         This opinion is submitted pursuant to the applicable rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the registration by the
Company of 591,250 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common
Stock") to be sold by the Selling Security Holders designated in the
Registration Statement. The shares of Common Stock to be sold consist of (i) up
to 231,250 shares issuable upon conversion of upon the exercise of Common Stock
Purchase Warrants held by Selling Security Holders; (ii) 330,000 shares issuable
to consultants to the Company, pursuant to written consulting agreements; and
(iii) 30,000 shares issuable to legal counsel to the Company.

         In our capacity as counsel to the Company, we have examined the
original, certified, conformed, photostat or other copies of the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation (as Amended), By-Laws, instruments pertaining to
the issuance of the shares of Common Stock, and related exhibits and corporate
minutes provided to us by the Company. In all such examinations, we have assumed
the genuineness of all signatures on original documents, and the conformity to
originals or certified documents of all copies submitted to us as conformed,
photostat or other copies. In passing upon certain corporate records and
documents of the Company, we have necessarily assumed the correctness and
completeness of the statements made or included therein by the Company, and we
express no opinion thereon.

         Based upon and in reliance of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that
the Common Stock and Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the
Convertible Notes and exercise of the Warrants, is and when issued in accordance
with the terms of such security, will be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.

Integrated Security Resources, Inc.

Attention:  Mr. Joseph Costa

Gentlemen:

         This letter sets forth the terms and conditions upon which the business
and operations of Integrated Security Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), will be combined with those of Ensec International, Inc.
("Ensec"). The Company will join in this combination through a tax-free business
combination with Ensec or a subsidiary of Ensec (the "Business Combination") as
set forth below. The offer set forth in this letter of intent will expire at
5:00 p.m, New York time, on November 13, 1997, unless this letter of intent is
signed by the Company and the owners of a majority of the common stock of the
Company (the "Controlling Stockholders") on the appropriate line below and
returned to the undersigned such that it is received prior to such time.

          1. Consideration. In the Business Combination, the outstanding shares
             -------------
of the capital stock of the Company will be exchanged for 2,000,000 shares of
Ensec common stock and warrants to purchase an additional 1,000,000 shares of
Ensec common stock (the "Consideration"). The warrants shall be on substantially
similar terms including, but not limited to price, as those to be issued to the
investors in Ensec's private placement with Burnham Securities, Inc. and shall
provide for a cashless exercise feature. The purchase price has been determined
assuming that the earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization
("EBITDA") of the Company, as adjusted, is not less than $400,000 for the 12
months ended June 30, 1998 and the Company's total revenue for such period, in
accordance with U.S. GAAP, is at least $4,000,000 based upon annualized numbers
for the six months ended December 31, 1997. If such assumptions are not correct,
Ensec and the Company shall negotiate adjustments to the Consideration. The
Acquisition Agreement shall provide for post-closing adjustments to the
Consideration based upon the Company's adjusted EBITDA and revenues for the year
ended June 30, 1998. The Controlling Stockholders will be issued options to
purchase a total of 3,000,000 shares of Ensec Common Stock on the following
terms:
