November 2019


The new ASA (ATM Security Association) website is now up and running - completely separate from the ATMIA website.

The ASA's mission is to "help keep ATMs as the world's most secure financial services consumer touchpoint by providing relevant intelligence, information alerts, best practices and industry standards and solutions for the protection of ATM cassettes, and the cash inside them, in compatibility with health and safety principles and in line with the concept of taking away the reward for the criminal targeting ATMs."

The Joint Security Council is the governing body of the ASA with elected officers chosen for a two year term. The working groups and committees include:

  • Next Gen ATM Security Committee
  • Global Security Intelligence Committee
  • The ATM Skimming & Card Data Compromise working group
  • The Cassette Security working group
  • The ATM Cyber, Software and Encryption Security Alliance
  • And the ATM Security Discussion Forum.

ASA hosted webinar in October on ATM cassette security. Prior to that, the group produced its first white paper which was a general introduction to cassette security, including an infographic of the way in which we handle cassettes, cash replenishment and the cycle of ATM cassette management and protection. This general overview will be used for deciding on more focused studies and white papers in the future.

All ATMIA members are welcome to participate in ASA committee groups. Access to documents such as the 2019 Fraud Survey Report, best practices, and the Theoretical Risk Assessment tool do require an annual subscription.
