ATM Surveillance With AI Protection

ATMs are high-value targets for criminals employing increasingly sophisticated attack methods. Skimming devices have evolved to be nearly invisible to the untrained eye, capturing card data from thousands of customers before being discovered. Shoulder surfing, cash trapping, and forced transaction fraud continue to cause significant losses across the banking industry.

Physical attacks are equally concerning. Ram raids, explosive attacks, and vandalism damage or destroy ATMs, creating repair costs that far exceed the cash losses. These attacks often occur at off-peak hours when no security personnel are present, and traditional alarm systems only activate after the damage is already done.

Existing ATM cameras typically provide low-quality footage stored locally on the machine itself. When an ATM is physically attacked, the recording device is often destroyed along with the machine, eliminating the evidence needed for investigation. Even when footage survives, the quality is rarely sufficient for identifying suspects or supporting prosecution.

Surveillant transforms ATM security from passive recording to active threat prevention. Our AI analyzes video feeds from ATM cameras in real time, detecting skimming device installation attempts, suspicious loitering patterns, and physical attack preparations before they succeed. Alerts reach your security operations center within seconds of detection.

Cloud-based storage ensures footage survives even if the ATM is destroyed. High-quality video is streamed to secure servers in real time, creating forensic-grade evidence that cannot be tampered with or lost during a physical attack. Investigators can search footage across your entire ATM network instantly, connecting incidents across locations.

The system monitors environmental patterns around each ATM, learning normal activity for that specific location and time of day. When behavior deviates from established patterns, such as someone lingering unusually long at the machine or approaching during typically zero-traffic hours, the AI escalates for human review before a crime occurs.
