Brazil Bank redefines secure banking with installation of integrated security system from RISCO Group

Caixa Economica Federal bank has been using RISCO Group's security products for the last four years

Caixa Economica Federal bank operates as the main agent for the Federal government public policies in Brazil and is present in the lives of millions of Brazilians today. The bank serves not only its clients, but the whole Brazilian population through lotteries, urban infrastructure investments and social programmes payments.

The challenge

Caixa Economica Federal Bank was looking to enhance the security of its hundreds of branches. A fully integrated TCP/IP based security solution with reliable commercial and perimeter detectors was required. Special requirements included an integrated security system that enables control of the bank vaults, data transfer and management via TCP/IP network, and remote control and diagnostics of each component of the security system.

An important factor was a high level of cooperation and support between the manufacturer, the integrator and the bank. The bank was looking for a reliable manufacturer that responds quickly to requirements and is committed to excellent support.

The solution

RISCO Group's ProSYS Integrated Security System was chosen as a solution that met all the above requirements. The security solution also included RISCO Group's flagship iWISE DT Greenline commercial detectors, Shock and Glassbreak detectors and a special model of a 2-button keyfob, transmitting on a low voltage battery.

The highlights

• ProSYS Integrated Security System and RISCO Group's detectors will be installed in over 800 branches.
• RISCO Group's Anti-Cloak™ Technology (ACT™) and Anti-Mask Technology were reinforced by the bank as standard.
• Anti-Cloak™ Technology is a patented innovation that enables superior catch performance by switching to microwave-only mode either when room temperature is close to body temperature or when a cloaking attempt is identified.
• RISCO Group's technical team is part of the installation team - giving all the support and training the bank's branches need.

The customer's point of view

Caixa Economica Federal bank has been using RISCO Group's security products for the last four years, and has adopted RISCO Group's patented technology as standard. With the realisation that RISCO Group products suit the exact needs of customers, more and more integrators across Brazil are selecting these products for the high-end security market.
