Michigan county court deploys Diebold ATM for juror payment
Washtenaw County 22^nd circuit court recently deployed an Opteva® 520 lobby, cash-dispensing ATM to distribute juror payments. The ATM dispenses cash cards in one of four fixed denominations, based on the amount of time they serve as a juror as well as their mileage reimbursement, immediately following jury service.

In addition to juror reimbursement, the ATM is also available to other courthouse visitors. Besides reducing administrative time and costs, the ATM will save the finance department more than $5,000 a year in postage and staffing costs for processing and mailing checks.

Diebold’s new office marks official entry into government security market
Diebold recently opened a new office in Sterling, Va., to mark its official entry into the government security market. The office includes a government solutions exhibit hall, featuring Diebold security applications such as biometric access control, closed-circuit television, smart cards, visitor enrollment and photo identification badge system, network video recorders, intrusion detection and certified Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility solution (SCIF).

Diebold has two competitive advantages in the government security market. First, it is the only company of its kind that can install and service barrier, logical (IT) and physical security solutions. It also features solutions that comply with HSPD-12 (Homeland Security Presidential Directive) standards. This federal mandate, designed to improve security at government agencies, involves a government-wide standard for secure and reliable forms of identification issued by the federal government to employees and contractors, and covers physical and logical access to federally controlled facilities and information systems.

A grand opening celebration is scheduled for June 28-29, and will include tours of the facility.

Newsletter provides valuable information about ATM fraud and security issues
Diebold’s SecurityMatters newsletter is a quarterly publication designed to facilitate open communication about and awareness of fraud and security-related issues that affect financial institutions.  Created by Diebold’s Global Security Task Force, it features tips for protecting ATMs, including free-standing island terminals, provides guidance for selecting and keeping PINs secure, highlights recent fraud reports and more. The latest issue includes a Diebold Card Fraud Survey that shows men are more vulnerable than women.

Diebold joins Technology Professional Services Association
Diebold recently joined the Technology Professional Services Association (TPSA), an organization that provides information, concepts, models and best practices required for success in the technology marketplace.  TPSA also documents intellectual property, recommends training vendors and curricula and analyzes and certifies programs that have demonstrated exceptional thought leadership and skill enhancement in selling, delivery and management of technology professional services.

“As technology providers to our customers, it is imperative that Diebold is engaged in the establishment of standards and best practices as validated by TPSA,” said Chuck Somers, vice president, managed and professional services. “The growth of professional services in product-centric companies is something that many companies struggle with.
