Banks hold vast amounts of valuable assets and information that must be protected from a range of security threats. A solid security system is crucial to keep personnel and information safe, including preventing access to unauthorized people through doors, windows, and control systems. Although some settings may face lower security threats than others, installing the most secure systems from the beginning can save criminal damage such as break-ins and theft. With that in mind, this article will discuss how to build a bulletproof bank security system with suitable doors and windows that provide optimal security.

Identifying Potential Threats

Banks around the world face serious security threats, from theft to cyber phishing attacks, which compromise the bank’s security and the personal data of its customers. We will briefly outline many of the threats banks face, but this post’s primary focus will be physical and bulletproof security measures.

  • Access control by unauthorized people
  • Cyber threats such as phishing attacks, ransomware, and trojans
  • Financial fraud
  • Physical attacks
  • Robbery

Any and all of these threats can have severe consequences for the bank, making risk assessments and high-level physical security critical. Risk assessments are carried out in most settings as they provide valuable information on an establishment’s risk level and specific threats. As a result, business owners can implement the most suitable security measures, including bulletproof solutions, where it is most needed.

Bulletproof Security Windows and Doors

Security guards, computer software, and electronic access control systems can only do so much to prevent attacks on a bank, especially if lives are at risk. Installing ballistic-grade bulletproof windows and doors provides a high-level, impenetrable barrier designed to withstand ballistic attacks, making them ideal solutions for developing a bulletproof security system for banks.

Using the right doors and windows is paramount and offers substantial security when used with several electronic and physical barriers. Armortex® is dedicated to developing high-quality security systems that offer protection against commercial crime and other attacks.
