INTRODUCTION
ATM made money transaction easy. Other side is enhancement of culprits action to get unauthentic access. Improved Technology is used. Facial Recognition is recent technology used at ATMs.
History of an ATM
Many inventors contribute to the invention. Don Wetzel invented first successful and modern ATM.
He got the idea while waiting in line at Dallas Bank. It was not in a lobby. It was actually in the wall of the Bank. Had a canopy over IT for protection.
What is an ATM
A Banking Terminal that accepts deposits & dispenses cash. It has two input devices viz ; 1. A card reader that reads magnetic strip. 2. A keypad. It has four output devices viz ; 1. A speaker. 2. A display screen. 3. A printer. 4. A safe & cash dispensing mechanism.

ATM
Networking ATMs are connected to interbank network enabling people to withdraw and deposit money from machines not belonging to the bank where they have their account. Hardware ATMs contain secure cryptoprocessors, generally within an IBM PC compatible host computer in a secure enclosure.

Software ATMs are moving away from custom circuit boards and into full-fledged with commodity operating systems such as Windows 2000 and Linux . Reliability ATMs are generally reliable, but if they do go wrong customers will be left without cash or giving out higher value notes.

ATM Frauds
These had two common forms.
1.
In the low-tech form, the user's PIN is observed by someone watching as they use the machine. By contrast, the most common high-tech modus operandi involves the installation of a magnetic card reader over the real ATM's card slot, and the use of a wireless surveillance camera to observe the user's PIN.

AtMs in OperAtiOn
Used mainly in Law Enforcement Agencies & Security Surveillance. Also has several other uses : 1. Eliminating voter fraud. 2. Check-Cashing identity verification. 3. Computer security. Also used to pinpoint the face in the crowd & measure its features.
Computer Security
Facial Recognition mechanism is also used to pinpoint a face in the crowd & measure its features.
Working
Facial Recognition analyzes Characteristics of face through digital camera. There are peaks & valleys on face called nodal points. There are around 80 nodal points on face. Some of them are : 1. Distance between eyes. 2. Width of nose. 3. Depth of eye sockets. 4. Cheekbones. 5. Jaw line. 6. Chin.
These nodal points are measured to create a numerical code that represents face in database. This code is called face-print. These measurements are then used for comparison when user stands before camera. Does not require physical contact with image capturing device.
Identification Steps
Take a photo of the individual & encode it. Match the encoding against database. Display the result (i.e. verified or notverified).
Verification
Advantages
Frauds are minimized. It does not require any physical contact with image capture device. Does not require any advance hardware. Convenient to use because additional security information (smart cards, pwd. etc) can be skipped. Usually helps in situation where certain biometric feature is not optimal. e.g. hard workers may have raw finger prints.
Disadvantages
Face is not so unique, so its recognition reliability is slightly lower. To match with the database image, it requires lot of time.
Conclusion
As ATM frauds are increasing, or the culprits probability to get the unauthentic access is increasing, additional security like Facial Recognition mechanism is necessity.
