With an increasing number of banks in Japan, it has been necessary to equip ATMs with advanced security systems in order to discourage robberies, prevent would-be criminals, catch card fraud and settle disputes between clients and banks, thus giving bank personnel peace of mind and a better ability to focus on their jobs, while also leaving customers free to go about their business.

Having a reliable security system with seamless integration of alarm sensors were both major requirements of H Bank. Therefore, the optimal solution required a system with continuous recording duration and alarms activated on sensors triggered by unauthorized tampering with ATMs.

In the H Bank solution, the video captured from ATMs is recorded to removable hard disk drive installed in the AcroSecure DVR. The recording mode is set to ¡§motion detection¡¨ in order to record only the movements of customers accessing the ATMs. The security staff of H Bank can monitor the status of any ATM from a remote security center, made possible with network access. Security management can monitor live video via the Internet at any PC at anytime using the appropriate authentication protocols. For the purposes of archiving evidence, recorded video can be backed up to external USB CD-RW drives. Through MPEG-4 frame compression technology, capacity can be extended for recording over long periods of time. The user-friendly user interface offers easy operation and playback. In addition, administrators or managers can search for or download recorded video data on remote computers via the local network or the Internet, giving instant access and allowing for immediate action when needed. When ATMs are vandalized, the sensors will trigger alarms for real-time action. Over the past two years, AnexTEK¡¦s surveillance solutions have been implemented in numerous banks and prominent financial institutions in Taiwan and Japan. AnexTEK offers several lines of DVRs, scaleable for the most demanding of requirements and flexible for a wide range of industries.
