Vault, Cash Office and Treasury Security Management

Cash offices, vaults and treasury centres concentrate enormous value behind a few doors, making them prime targets for armed robbery, insider theft and sophisticated attack. This course protects the point where money is stored and counted rather than the vehicles that move it. Delegates learn vault design, dual control, insider risk management and robbery response for banks, retailers and cash centres across Africa.

What you will be able to do

  • Assess the physical and procedural security of a vault or cash office.
  • Apply dual control, time locks and access limits to protect stored cash.
  • Design counting room and treasury layouts that reduce robbery and theft opportunity.
  • Manage insider risk through segregation of duties and reconciliation controls.
  • Prepare staff to respond safely to armed robbery and hostage situations.
  • Coordinate alarms, surveillance and response for cash handling areas.
