“All target branches were brought under a standardized burglar alarm system, deterring several attempted break-ins and enabling immediate responses without disrupting regular banking operations.”

Karur Vysya Bank (KVB), a leading private sector bank in South India, sought a security alarm system to safeguard 70 of its branches from unauthorized access and theft. The solution needed to provide real-time alerts to security teams and branch managers, especially after banking hours. Brihaspathi Technologies was chosen to supply and install advanced burglar alarm systems across the selected locations.

Challenges

Customizing installation plans for each branch’s unique layout to cover all vulnerable entry points.
Balancing alarm sensitivity to avoid false triggers from movement, vibration, or environmental noise.
Setting up rapid notification systems to alert branch heads and law enforcement during alarm triggers.
Ensuring system functionality during late hours and holidays when branches were unattended.

Solutions

Fitted each branch with a burglar alarm panel connected to motion sensors and magnetic contacts at entry doors, windows, and vault areas.
Ensured continuous operation with power backups to maintain functionality during outages.
Configured instant alerts via SMS or automated calls to bank officials and local security teams upon alarm triggers.
Installed panels in concealed locations to prevent tampering.

Results

All target branches were equipped with a standardized burglar alarm system.

Several attempted break-ins were deterred due to immediate alert-triggered responses.

The project was completed without interfering with regular banking hours or customer operations.
