Abstract
Air is pressurized in a pressurized security apparatus which surrounds a housing for a safe of a media recycler/dispenser or a housing for the media recycler/dispenser. Air pressure is monitored for the pressurized security apparatus. Air pressure that drops below a configured amount causes a security event to be sent to a security system as an indication that the safe and/or recycler/dispenser has been tampered with by unauthorized individuals. The security system initiates security actions that can include dispatching authorities to a location associated with the recycler/dispenser.
