The system enables secure transfers between commercial entities with real-time monitoring by law enforcement authorities, replacing traditional cash transport companiess.
SIRA has mandated the use of security bags that meet testing and certification requirements. The bags include smart alarm systems, sirens for security breaches, electronic locks, and protection against cutting or breaking tools.
