Introduction
Banks and financial institutions face some of the highest security risks of any commercial sector. Comprehensive video surveillance is not optional—it is a regulatory and operational necessity for protecting assets, deterring crime, and ensuring compliance with banking security standards.
Camera Requirements
High-resolution cameras (4–8 MP) are essential for capturing facial detail and transaction evidence. ATM areas, teller counters, vaults, lobbies, and parking lots all require dedicated coverage. Cameras must deliver clear images regardless of lighting conditions.
Recording and Retention
Financial regulations in many jurisdictions require footage retention of 30–90 days. Use enterprise-grade NVRs with redundant storage (RAID) and H.265+ compression to maximise recording days while protecting against drive failure.
Integration with Banking Systems
Hikvision’s HikCentral VMS can overlay transaction data from POS terminals onto video footage, making it easy to locate the exact recording of a disputed transaction. This level of integration streamlines investigations significantly.
