NORTH CANTON, Ohio, March 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Expanding a partnership that brought deposit automation to the automated teller machine (ATM) in 2005, Diebold, Incorporated (NYSE: DBD) and Suncoast Credit Union are again revolutionizing the self-service channel. Diebold and Suncoast, supported by FIS™ (NYSE: FIS), will enable full cash recycling at the ATM with Diebold's Opteva® Flex Performance Series ATMs. This will allow the ATMs to reuse consumer-deposited cash for future withdrawals, enhancing ATM availability and reducing the frequency and cost of cash replenishment visits.

"We foresee impressive savings potential for our locations that experience heavy cash transaction volumes."

FIS, the world's largest banking and payments technology provider, is designing and implementing the back-end processing required to facilitate full cash recycling.

Diebold's Opteva Flex Performance Series ATMs have a recycling capacity of up to 10,800 notes and accept deposits of up to 13,100 notes in a five-cassette configuration.

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, July 15, 2014

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, July 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- With visions of personal bankers spending less time handling transactions and more time delivering richer consumer experiences, Guaranty Bank & Trust has adopted advanced solutions from Diebold, Incorporated (NYSE: DBD) to support the bank's branch transformation strategy. Expanding into Texas' Longview and Bryan/College Station markets, the bank has now opened five locations featuring deposit automation-enabled Opteva® automated teller machines (ATMs) and Express Cash Recyclers (ECRs) from Diebold. Inside these locations, bank customers will manage the majority of their own transactions and work with personal bankers to complete more complex tasks.

The Mount Pleasant-based institution operates 20 branches in 11 counties throughout the state and is undergoing a transformation to enhance consumer services and operational efficiencies.

"We've already introduced deposit automation and teller automation solutions to a number of locations, which has streamlined transactions to give our staff more time to build deeper customer relationships," said Gene Erwin, senior vice president, Guaranty Bank & Trust. "We're continuing to implement transformative technologies across our location network to deliver more meaningful banking experiences to our customers."

Inside Guaranty Bank & Trust's locations, personal bankers invite customers to interactive "dialogue towers" that feature self-service terminals and collaboration areas. There, customers can complete fully automated cash and check deposits, as well as withdrawals, balance inquiries, transfers and other transactions, on deposit automation-enabled Opteva ATMs.

For more advanced needs, customers move to the collaboration area to work one-on-one with personal bankers. To streamline transactions and give representatives more face time with customers, representatives use an ECR to manage cash. The ECR automatically accepts, verifies, sorts and stores cash securely, and then redispenses deposited notes.

"In managing recent renovations at its traditional locations, Guaranty Bank & Trust had the foresight to leave room for future implementations of in-branch self-service terminals and collaboration areas," said Mychal D. Kempt, vice president, North America operations, Diebold. "Now, with five transformed locations opened, the bank has been able to measure the success of this model and is moving forward with rolling it out to all of its other locations."

Diebold is also helping Guaranty Bank & Trust secure its branch network, providing electronic security solutions and services across the bank's enterprise, including video surveillance, fire detection and alarm monitoring.

About Guaranty Bank & Trust

Founded in 1913, Guaranty Bank & Trust is one of the oldest and most respected banks in Texas. With more than $1.2 billion in total assets, the bank operates 20 branches in 11 counties throughout Texas. For more information, visit www.gnty.com.

Diebold Stops ATM Fraudsters In Their Tracks With World's Most Secure Anti-Skimming Card Reader
16:05 29.07.14

PR Newswire

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, July 29, 2014

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, July 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Skimmers beware. Diebold, Incorporated (NYSE: DBD) is thwarting criminals' ability to capture automated teller machine (ATM) users' card data with its new ActivEdge™ card reader. The industry's first complete anti-skimming card reader prevents all known forms of skimming – the most prevalent type of ATM crime – as well as other forms of ATM fraud. ActivEdge can help financial institutions avoid skimming-related fraud losses which, according to the ATM Industry Association, total more than $2 billion annually worldwide.


ActivEdge approaches skimming from a different angle, literally, by requiring users to insert cards into the reader via the long edge, instead of the traditional short edge. By shifting a card's angle 90 degrees, ActivEdge prevents all modern skimming devices from reading the card's full magnetic stripe, eliminating the devices' ability to steal card data.

"Card fraud at the ATM is a serious and prevalent crime that leads to significant losses. ActivEdge will be a game changer in our industry's fight to protect consumer data," said Andy W. Mattes, Diebold president and chief executive officer. "In addition to our recent acquisition of Cryptera and the formation of the ATM Security Association, ActivEdge is yet another step forward in Diebold's ongoing efforts to increase ATM security."

Diebold's usability research confirms that consumers support financial institutions' use of ActivEdge. Of consumers who participated in Diebold's study, 95 percent preferred ActivEdge over current readers for its enhanced security and did not mind changing their card insertion behaviors for more secure transactions. Consumers inserted their cards correctly on the first attempt, or were able to quickly determine the proper way to insert the card.

Diebold's patent pending ActivEdge card reader addresses a comprehensive set of concerns related to skimming, trapping and fishing attacks. ActivEdge prevents known skimming-related fraud by mitigating criminals' four primary attack vectors: external skimming, internal skimming, USB sniffing and device substitution. ActivEdge's encrypted technology inhibits criminal modifications to the card reader. Its encrypted communication to the ATM's central processing unit eliminates the ability to fraudulently capture and track data. In addition, each reader is paired with a specific ATM, precluding the installation of fraudulent readers.

To counteract card trapping and fishing attacks, ActivEdge features automatic gate-locking functionality, which prevents fraudsters from freeing trapped cards. Such attacks have surged, with European ATM Security Team (EAST) reporting that card trapping incidents in Europe rose 98 percent from 2,726 attacks in 2012 to 5,394 attacks in 2013.

ActivEdge is EMV compliant and is available as an option on most new Diebold ATMs. It can also be retrofitted to a variety of existing Diebold ATMs.

"ActivEdge subtly alters the ATM card user experience, while greatly shifting the balance of power in the fight against ATM crime," said Frank Natoli Jr., executive vice president and chief innovation officer, Diebold. "Altering the card orientation has crippling consequences for skimming devices. With ActivEdge, financial institutions will be able to stay ahead of today's sophisticated devices and fraud attacks."
