The damage costs more than the cash.
An ATM is attacked with tools and explosives, not with code. A camera can see that starting.
ATM physical attacks in Europe in 2024, up 28% on the year before.
EAST, European Payment Terminal Crime Report 2024, 14 April 2025
explosive attacks, for €8.56m of losses
ATM rip-out and burglary, 506 to 592 incidents
total losses from physical attacks, up 33%
EAST adds the part that does not appear in the loss column: the collateral damage to equipment and buildings routinely exceeds the value of the cash taken.
Same cameras. A different answer.
How it is handled today
Hundreds of alarms on movement, to open and read.
A tilt sensor that fires on a passing lorry and on a crowbar alike. The clip is opened the morning after, when the fascia is already open.
With Focoos
One alarm, already analysed.
One event that already says a person is prying at the fascia with a tool, face covered. The operator opens a clip with a sentence attached, not a timestamp.
What Focoos wrote about this clip
One person approaches the ATM, tries to force it with a metal object and then leaves the area.
Real surveillance footage, and the model’s own sentence about it. The event types are the ones it raised.
What it watches for on this kind of site.
The usual list for this point of view. It is yours to change, camera by camera: the model is the same everywhere, and only the ticked boxes differ.
These are event types from the same twenty. Nothing is built for this market, which is why a site with a forecourt, a shop and a yard runs one model and not three systems.
On the cameras you already have.
A branch already has cameras on the machine and on the lobby. Focoos reads those streams, decides on site, and sends one event with the reason already written.
The brain: observes, understands and decides on-prem, on your own network.
Where your team settles the events, from every site you run.
