TMD intros integrated access management solution for ATM, secure room, branch

April 4, 2019

TMD Security, a provider of ATM security and access management solutions, has announced the launch of Access Management, which it describes as "the first integrated keyless access management solution for the ATM safe and top box, secure room and branch."

According to a press release, TMD and its sister company TMS ATM Software partnered with leading providers of certified lock technology to combine high-security locks with intelligent software, and encrypted one-time codes with a mobile app instead of physical keys.

The solutions are based on R&D interviews with ATM deployers and service providers around the world that highlighted the hidden costs and inefficiencies of old-fashioned ATM locks and manual processes. 

Benefits of the TMD Security Access Management solution include:

• Elimination of need for physical keys.
• A high-security mobile app that allows remote, real-time granting or removal of access.
• Real-time one-time-codes generated according to predefined permissions.
• High-security encryption and certification of messages between host, mobile app and certified lock.
• Real-time audit trails that record time of lock opening and closure and user ID.
• Remote management and control of schedules, privileges and more.

"Developing a 'game-changing' integrated access management solution is not easy," TMD CEO Cees Heuker of Hoek said in the release. 'That is why the banking industry and ATM deployers have been using the same locks and manual processes for the past 20 years. The impact on ATM availability and the hidden costs are significant but someone is paying the bill. Our priority is to help to reduce operational costs for deployers, CITs and service providers, improve ATM uptime and effectively protect the ATM and the cash inside it."
