Abstract

A site management system may include a user interface with a display device, a network interface, and a controller coupled to the user interface and the network interface. In some examples, the controller may be configured to determine the location of a first machine and compare the location of the first machine to one or more second machines. After determining the first machine crosses a predetermined geo-boundary of a second machine, the controller may be configured to elevate a threat level associated with the second machine.

Claims

1. A site management system comprising:

a user interface comprising a display device;

a network interface; and

a controller coupled to the user interface and the network interface, the controller configured to;

determine the location of a vehicle;

compare the location of the vehicle relative to the location of one or more automated teller machines (ATM);

after determining the vehicle crosses a predetermined geo-boundary of a particular ATM, elevate a threat level associated with the particular ATM, where elevating the threat level of the particular ATM includes;

sending one or more control signals requesting security information associated with the particular ATM, the security information associated with the particular ATM including information from one or more sensors, motion detectors, alarms, cameras and/or other devices associated with the particular ATM;

sorting and prioritizing security information relating to the particular ATM over at least one other ATM; and

displaying at least some of the received security information from the particular ATM on a larger display area of the display device of the site management system relative to the display area used for displaying security information of at least one other ATM.

2. The site management system of claim 1, wherein the controller receives the location from the vehicle through the network interface.

3. The site management system of claim 1, wherein the vehicle carries a global positioning (GPS) device and a network interface.

4. The site management system of claim 3, wherein the vehicle communicates coordinates determined by the GPS device to the controller through the network interface.

5. The site management system of claim 1, wherein the controller further comprises a memory, and the memory includes the location of the particular ATM.

6. The site management system of claim 1, wherein the vehicle carries a portable device that includes a global positioning (GPS) device and a network interface.

7. The site management system of claim 6, wherein the portable device is a smart phone.
