Abstract: Systems and methods described herein may provide automated teller machine (ATM) security. For example, an ATM security system may comprise an ink staining system, an electronic lock, and a processor in communication with the electronic lock and the ink staining system. The processor may be configured to determine that the lock is being opened, disable the ink staining system in response to the determining, and enable the ink staining system when the lock has been closed.

Abstract: A method and system for communicating, comprising: at least one master device comprising at least one master driver with at least one intelligent vending controller application; at least one slave device comprising at least one slave driver; and at least one controller area network (CAN) bus facilitating communication between the at least one master device and the at least one slave device; the master device facilitating communication between at least one host application and the at least one master device and the at least one slave, wherein the at least one IVC application needs to be updated or changed only in the at least one master device, but an upgraded CPU affects the at least one slave device.

Abstract: A cash container may be configured to fit within a money depositing machine. The cash container may comprise a substantially rectangular box configured to fit within a cash deposit receiving cavity of the machine. An opening may be provided on one side of the box, the opening being configured to receive cash deposited into the machine. Dimensions of the opening and of the box are such that cash entering the opening is substantially oriented in a stacked configuration within the mold.
