Latest version.
  • Every banking institution shall maintain
      the following security measures with respect to each  of  the  automated
      teller machine facilities within its dominion and control:
        1.  A  surveillance camera or cameras, which shall view and record all
      persons entering an automated teller machine facility located within the
      interior of a building, or which shall  view  and  record  all  activity
      occurring within a minimum of three feet in front of an automated teller
      machine  located  outside  a  building and open to the outdoor air. Such
      camera or cameras need not  record  banking  transactions  made  at  the
      automated  teller machines. The recordings made by such cameras shall be
      preserved by the banking institution for at least forty-five days.
        2. Adequate lighting.
        3. With respect to an indoor automated teller  machine  facility:  (a)
      entry  doors  equipped  with  locking devices which permit entry to such
      facility only to persons using a magnetic-strip plastic card or  similar
      access device.
        (b)  To  the  extent  practicable,  as  determined  by  an expert with
      competence in such matters and as permitted by local building codes,  at
      least  one  exterior  wall  which  provides  an unobstructed view of the
      interior of the automated teller machine facility.
        (c) A reflective mirror or mirrors, as necessary,  placed  in  such  a
      manner as to permit a person entering an indoor automated teller machine
      facility to view areas within such facility that are otherwise concealed
      to plain view.
        (d) A clearly visible sign which, at a minimum, provides the following
      information:
        (1)  the  activity  of  the automated teller machine facility is being
      recorded by a surveillance camera or cameras;
        (2) customers should close the entry door completely upon entering and
      exiting;
        (3) customers should not permit any unknown  persons  to  enter  after
      regular banking hours;
        (4)  customers  should place withdrawn cash securely upon their person
      before exiting the automated teller machine facility;
        (5) complaints concerning security in  the  automated  teller  machine
      facility  should  be  directed  to  the  banking  institution's security
      department or the banking department, together  with  telephone  numbers
      for  such  complaints,  and  that the nearest available public telephone
      should be used to call the police if emergency assistance is needed.
