User:Lachlangunn1/European ATM Security Team

The European ATM Security Team (EAST) was founded in February 2004 at a meeting hosted by Banksys in Brussels, Belgium. The initial idea for EAST came from Martine Hemmerijckx and Lachlan Gunn, and Rafael Rondelez was one of the launch team. EAST was founded as a user group for deployers of automated teller machines (ATMs) and ATM networks. In 2007 EAST gained its own legal identity as European ATM Security Team Limited, a Scottish company, limited by guarantee. EAST is a non-profit organisation.
