Rather than having different manufacturers trying their best to come up with just a piece of the puzzle that is ATM Security, we see the need for a total, integral concept. Irreversibly degrading the cash inside the ATM (no cash, no crime) is a great starting point, but we can do more to discourage criminals to attack ATMs.
Banknotes immediately lose their value, if you can’t pay with them. In previous articles, we wrote about the two available types of cash degradation and compared them according to two important critical success factors: ambiguity and reversibility. In this article, we zoom in on the need for an effective activation mechanism and the differences in the available options today.
All over the world, the number of explosive attacks on ATMs is increasing. The need for a solution is urgent. We are convinced that the gas attack Modus Operandi can only be eradicated if we remove the criminal’s motivation to rob an ATM; the availability of cash money inside an ATM. We need to degrade the cash; unambiguously and irreversibly.

In order to help prevent the spread of the Corona virus, Mactwin has taken all necessary precautions, in accordance with the advice given by Dutch government body RIVM. The health of our employees and customers is of paramount importance to us.
All around the world, we see an increase in physical attacks on ATMs. There is a great need for a solution for this problem. We developed a Whitepaper Cash Degradation in ATMs, in which we describe preventive measures that banks, ATM suppliers and/or service parties can take to fight this Modus Operandi effectively. Because we believe in the power of Cash Degradation, the emphasis lies on this specific security measure.

GPU (Gas Protection Unit) indefinitely protects against ATM gas attacks, outperforming any other solution available in the market today. GPU prevents the explosion, minimizes damage and leaves the criminal empty-handed. After split-second gas detection, GPU neutralizes the gas inside the ATM; indefinitely! GPU is already successfully deployed in numerous ATMs throughout Europe. Recently, Mactwin introduced a brand-new version, making the system even more compact and easy to install. Moreover, the system status can now be monitored remotely.
