BACKGROUND

[0002] With the advancement of financial informatization construction, various intelligent financial self-service equipment has begun to be popularized in various bank outlets. While providing convenient, efficient and comfortable business handling for customers, it also brings the bank the benefits of downsizing, efficiency and speed. However, with the continuous development of Internet finance, the information security problem of intelligent financial self-service equipment is increasingly prominent. Especially under the background that the Internet U-shield has become an indispensable tool in enterprise and personal financial business, the USB port is usually reserved in the operation area of the bank self-service equipment to facilitate customers to insert the U-shield for security authentication when handling business, but this also leaves a security risk. This causes bad people to use USB disk or mobile hard disk and other electronic devices with USB interface to access self-service equipment for virus propagation, hacker intrusion and theft of sensitive information, and even to commit fraud. At present, the existing technology cannot isolate this security risk with the bank's system software, and the structural solution usually only adds a manual dial piece at the USB port to block the USB port by sliding the manual stop piece, but this cannot completely eliminate the risk and still has the problem of using the USB port to invade the bank business system. Although the traditional automatic gate such as the ATM cash gate can also be considered for protection, but because the U-shield plug-in segment is limited in length, and there are usually more modules arranged on the self-service equipment operation panel, the internal available space is relatively tight, so the larger ATM cash gate is not suitable for the USB port. Therefore, in order to protect the information security of individuals and enterprises, the existing technology must be improved to completely solve the above security risks.
