New era of ATM monitoring

New era of ATM monitoring

With the prosperity of socialist construction in our country, the electronic construction of the financial industry has also developed rapidly. In order to activate the financial market and facilitate people's lives, all major bank outlets have set up ATMs. The number of bank ATMs continues to increase, and the scope of use is also expanding. However, due to the automatic withdrawal function of the ATM machine and the unattended use environment, there have been many criminal activities of stealing the money of legal cardholders and various malicious incidents that damage the ATM machine, and banks have also appeared constantly. Disputes with depositors. How to combat the crime of using ATM machines, reduce or eliminate disputes between banks and depositors, and ensure the safe and normal operation of ATM machines to protect the interests of banks and depositors has always been an urgent problem to be solved.

In order to prevent ATM machine cases from happening so frequently, people in banks and security circles use various methods to install an ATM monitoring system around the ATM machine, which is mainly used to monitor criminals using stolen bank cards or others on the ATM machine. Forged cards illegally withdraw cash, collaborate with others, interfere or destroy on ATMs, take other people ’s cards to withdraw cash, or deliberately beat or destroy ATMs and other criminal acts, trying to be able to leave surveillance videos after the incident, for police to use Investigation and evidence collection after the incident.

However, in terms of actual use, this ATM monitoring system actually only solves the problem of investigation and evidence collection after the fact. It cannot prevent the crime of ATM machine. The ATM monitoring system used by most banks in the market today can basically fall into the category of "post-event video query system". This monitoring system can only record what happened in front of the ATM machine 24 hours a day without interruption. In addition to providing video recording afterwards, it cannot issue warnings or alarms to stop crime.

First of all, the current monitoring system on the ATM machine is 24 hours of uninterrupted recording, which is not only a great challenge to the continuous working ability of the machine, but also a great waste of video storage space, because the current hard disk for the recorded images All are covered, which means that after a certain period, the original video recording will disappear, which is very unfavorable for the investigation and evidence collection of some cases. Even if there is enough space to store these images, in the work of retrieving video after the incident, a lot of time is wasted because the video volume is too large, and after the human eye works for a long time, it is easy to produce fatigue. It is easy to miss criminal images that occurred in a short time when recording.

Secondly, there are many violent crimes nowadays. Many banks' ATM machines have been damaged by violence, and these situations are often discovered after the fact. At this time, when the ATM machine is repaired, the bank has suffered a lot of losses. . Faced with this situation, some manufacturers have introduced a vibration monitor to monitor abnormal vibration. From the actual use, the effect is not satisfactory. The reason is very simple. These vibration monitors are not standardized. The fake vibration sensor generally senses the vibration signal through the shaking of a hammer fixed on a spring. When the vibration reaches a certain amplitude, the hammer hits The metal sheet next to it forms a closed-circuit current to determine that a vibration has occurred. In principle, this vibration is easy to miss a lot of destructive vibrations, and it is easy to produce false alarms, not to mention the collection of vibration data. In the ATM monitoring market, the products are mixed with fish and dragons, which are filled with sub-charging and substandard, often causing damage to end users.

Moreover, I believe that many stolen cardholders have such an experience. After they found that the money in the bank card was stolen, when they went to the bank to request to watch the video, they often found that the bank ’s video monitor had died For a long time, no video materials were left at the time of the incident. This situation often makes the victims unable to recover their losses. The occurrence of this situation proves once again that the existing ATM monitoring system is a very passive device. Without human intervention, it can not send a signal to remind the relevant staff after stopping work, not to mention self-repair and restart.

What's more, stolen cardholders are not all negligent because they forgot to remove the card, which caused economic losses. Many people are because the ATM machine is equipped with a card stolen device and the card number and password are copied. I felt that I had lost money, and similar cases were committed across regions. Criminals have a lot of mobility. This police cracking case brings great difficulties. How to prevent this type of card theft is the most urgent delay for security. The problem that needs to be solved the most.

Although there are so many security products to enhance the performance of the ATM monitoring system, it is not enough to be satisfied with the technology developed at present. The height of the road is high, and the tricks of criminals are endless. Only Keeping up with the security situation, constantly upgrading, upgrading, and meeting the security needs can ensure that the crime hazards of the ATM machine can be strangled in the cradle before it is further expanded, and truly protect the safety of people's economic life.
