Because of the sensitive nature of the assets and information they maintain for customers, ensuring a highly secure environment is mission-critical for banks and other financial institutions. Any breach of or lapse in security can be disastrous and costly, with revenue loss, higher operating costs and damaged reputation heading the list of potentially damaging consequences.
Financial institutions have long recognized the need for a high level of security, and many have made significant investments in their IT infrastructure and other solutions that help secure customer data and assets from cyber breaches. Other physical security solutions address the need to know and control who is in a facility, where they are, what areas they can (and do) access, and for what duration of time.
