ATM Security - Protecting You and Your Customers
An industry standard has been designated by Underwriters Laboratories for ATM security referred to as UL 291. Also called 24-hour safes, these units are capable of holding cash unattended after business hours.All units offer either combination or electronic locks. Larger cash cassettes are also available to minimize the frequency of reloading. GPS units can also be installed to facilitate the tracking of the ATM machine for further protection.
Manufacturers recommend installing an ATM unit by securing it to a surface, preferably bolting it to a cement floor. Customer safety and trust is a high priority. In the interest of ATM fraud prevention, all new ATM machines must be Triple Data Encryption Standard (DES) compliant.
