Upgrading ATM Security Using Finger Vein Authentication and Anti Theft Module

Abstract

Since crimes pertaining to ATMs have been increasing in recent times, there is a crying need to look into the issue. There have been various systems to prevent the misuse of ATM cards or breaking open the ATM machine but there is a lack of a single system to secure the whole ATM from both physical and logical attacks. This paper proposes a two-module system that contains an RFID and finger-vein authentication module as an alternative to the conventional ATM cards and a Raspberry Pi module for continuous monitoring and automated control when the security of the ATM is at risk. This two-factor authentication and a real-time monitoring system provide better security than the previous techniques which make use of biometric authentication such as fingerprint and face recognition or CCTV cameras.
