| The World
Computer Security Corporation is a subsidiary spin-off of Minatronics
Corporation, a company that has been in business since 1961. Minatronics Corporation started as a security system company
that provided commercial and residential alarm systems, closed circuit TV, card access and
central station monitoring services. In 1986, the president of Minatronics Corporation was
approached by Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh to help CMU protect the university
owned computers that were beginning to be installed in 24 hour computer labs all over
campus.
Ed Wilson, the president of Minatronics Corporation invented
the LightGard detection
system to help Carnegie-Mellon University protect the college-owned computers located on
their campuses. Because Minatronics was also an alarm installation company for CMU, they
not only manufactured the LightGard product, but they also installed and monitored the
security device. This added "after sale" experience helped Minatronics strive to
make LightGard not only difficult for a thief to defeat, but easy to install, and false
alarm free.To the best of our knowledge, Carnegie Mellon University has had no thefts to
date among the over 5,000 pieces of equipment protected by the LightGard system, and
continues to order new systems every year.
Word of mouth spread, and over the last several years,
hundreds of universities and educational facilities across the country began using
LightGard to protect their PC computer labs. Now
LightGard is being used internationally by thousands of satisfied customers in
educational, retail, government and commercial industries.
Over the last few years, LightGard detectors have dropped in
price, making LightGard cost effective for protecting a single computer. Besides computer equipment, the highly versatile system can also
protect virtually any valuable item that can be secured with a 1/8 inch diameter Fiber
Optic Cable, like retail display equipment, audio visual equipment, and medical equipment.
The World Computer Security Corporation was started by Ed
Wilson's daughter, Carrie Hafeman, to market the LightGard computer security product. As
laptop theft and information theft began escalating, the company has added over 75
new additional computer security items to provide customers with different types
of options that can meet not only their needs, but their budget.

educational, corporate and government organizations. Because of the large quantities of
