In 2012, Raiffeisen Bank Aval, one of Ukraine's largest banks, embarked on a new direction in its intelligent integrated security system. AxxonSoft and Raiffeisen Bank Aval have a long partnership history dating back to April 2006, when Axxon VMS was installed at three of the bank's headquarters buildings. The software met the bank's requirements. Soon it was decided to widen its application to 14 of the bank's regional branches. Ukrainian security systems integrator Istagroup joined the project in 2010 to implement the system. Currently the system protects 630 bank locations, with around 2,500 IP cameras and 9,500 analog cameras by JVC, a long-term partner of Axxon. Any bank is a special kind of institution, with a product that demands particular vigilance and security.

A bank must have the trust and loyalty of its clients, who can rest assured that their savings are under careful guard. So the security system for a bank must be: 1) comprehensive (defend not just central offices but also all branches, departments, and other affiliates), 2) fault-tolerant and absolutely reliable, 3) flexible and manageable from a central hub, and 4) easily scalable (since the bank may be constantly opening new branches and installing new ATMs).
The VMS fit the bill precisely, having previously acquitted itself at Raiffeisen. But the bank is continually growing and adding new branches, making it necessary to supplement and broaden the system. In essence, the bank needed to install a wide range of security hardware and then tie it together with VMS. The software encloses all bank sites (branches, offices, ATMs, cash pickup/dropoff points) and allow centralized management.
