Banks

The perfect protection while the bank is closed

Vault areas, safe deposit boxes, server rooms, ATM areas and loading areas are being protected with security fog, blinding the criminals and preventing them from stealing or vandalizing the valuables of the bank.

A proactive security solution

ATMs are being attacked around the world. The criminals use gas to blow them up, or they use a tractor loader to drag the ATMs out of the premises. Both types of attacks cause great damage to the building and ATM and cost six-digit figures before the bank is back in business. This also means long downtimes, which will be both a financial problem for the bank and a big inconvenience for the customers of the bank.

 

Banks need to be known as a safe place to store monetary valuables for customers to choose them. If not, customers will most likely take their money elsewhere, to a bank where they truly feel like their valuables are being protected. Even though the easier targets in banks, such as computers, flat screens, and designer furniture, have been the burglars’ preferred targets for a long time, as the cash is locked up in safe vaults, it can still lead to customers having a lack of confidence in the bank.

 

In customer areas and back offices where cash is handled, it can feel very unsafe if security doesn’t seem to be prioritized. Incidents in banks can lead to staff and customers feeling less safe, which all banks would like to avoid.

Enhance the trust in your bank

PROTECT™ Security Fog Systems has solved these problems. The fog cannons activate instantly when a burglary or attack occurs. Within seconds, thick fog is discharged, blinding the criminals and attracting attention, giving the police and guards time to arrive at the scene.

 

In this way, the attack will be stopped before it develops. This means that downtime for the bank will be significantly minimized, if not completely removed. The bank will experience little to no damage and will avoid many of the financial consequences of an incident.

 

Trust in the bank will also be strengthened as customers can see that the bank takes their finances seriously and protects their valuables. Sometimes, simply installing a fog cannon can be a psychological barrier for the criminal, who will go elsewhere to find a target that doesn’t protect itself proactively.

 

By installing a PROTECT™ Fog Cannon, the staff and customers can also have peace of mind, knowing that the criminals’ actions can be stopped before anything actually happens. With a panic button solution, the staff will also be able to activate the fog themselves and avoid any uncomfortable situation escalating with a simple press of a button.
