Abstract:
Methods and systems for safeguarding financial transaction kiosks may include components configured to monitor for criteria indicating tampering with a kiosk. The kiosk may include a safe, a computer disposed external to the safe, and a cash dispensing device disposed at least partially within the safe and selectively coupled to the external computer by an electronic communication path. Using processing logic disposed in the safe, a switch disposed in the electronic communication path may be caused to open in response to detection of one or more of the tampering criteria, thereby automatically severing the communication path.

Claim (Index 18):
A financial transaction system comprising:\n a safe housed in a kiosk; a cash dispensing device disposed at least partially within the safe; a computer disposed external to the safe and coupled to the cash dispensing device by a first electronic communication path, wherein the computer is configured to control the dispensing device to selectively dispense cash stored in the safe; a switch disposed in the first electronic communication path and controlled by processing logic disposed in the safe; and a camera system configured to capture digital images of an area adjacent the kiosk and save the captured digital images; wherein the processing logic is configured, in response to one or more criteria indicating tampering with a kiosk, to automatically sever the first communication path by causing the switch to open and to automatically cause one or more of the captured digital images to be communicated to a remote user.
