e-Smart® and InfoZen to Team:
Companies Join Biometric Technology With Information Management

Washington DC, March 10, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ — e-Smart® Technologies, Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets: ESMT), today announced that it has entered into a "Teaming Agreement" with InfoZen, Inc., a leader in information management, specializing in Risk Management and Secure Solutions, Transformational and Strategic Solutions, and E-government and Infrastructure Services.

Under the terms of the Teaming Agreement, the parties have agreed to work to identify projects, beginning with the US government on domestic homeland security projects and expanding to commercial and international projects, which will integrate the unique biometric and other security technologies and systems developed by e-Smart® with the proven experience and superior background verification, credentialing and Automatic Adjudication system of InfoZen.

As an established leader in risk management, credentialing and secure solutions, InfoZen's advanced and unique RapidAdjudicator™ credentialing and verification platform was recently deployed by the United States Federal Government.

e-Smart® is the exclusive supplier for the USA and Asia of the Biometric Verification Security System™ ("BVS2™"), featuring the Super Smart Card™, which experts believe to be the world's only commercially available smart card with a full on-card system for biometric ID verification. e-Smart® is also the supplier of the Super Smart Passport™, the world's first digital passport that authenticates the passport holder's identity via an on-board fingerprint sensor and biometric matching system wirelessly powered, with no physical connection required.

Commenting on the Teaming Agreement, Raj Ananthanpillai, CEO of InfoZen, said, "In the face of the growing need for safe, timely and accurate information to assure domestic security, it seems wholly appropriate for InfoZen and e-Smart® to join forces. It is important to piece together all the critical information and analyze them in a timely fashion. Together, InfoZen and e-Smart® can provide credentialing and identity management solutions."

Mary Grace, President and CEO of e-Smart® commented, "There is nothing more important than the safety and security of the American people, and by coupling e-Smart®'s advanced biometric technology with InfoZen's highly respected information management systems and services we are ever closer to delivering that most necessary peace of mind."
