Vandalism mostly happens in poorly visible spots. Some risk can be cut before the machine is placed.
Risk falls with a visible, lit spot, less cash thanks to cashless payments, solid locks, and telemetry alerts, such as for door opening or power loss. Quick repairs matter too, as a neglected machine attracts more damage.
