Floor Drain Tool Torx-head type screws?

New here. Hope this is the right forum. I have an Anthony & Sylvan pool. I noticed that the screws for the floor drain are coming loose and one is missing (never installed). I tried using a Torx screw, but the star has a raised, round dot in the center preventing a Torx from being inserted.

Does anyone know what this tool is called and where I can get one to tighten the screws?

TIA,
Jeff

Security screws, so look for security bits.
I may not give you the answer you want to hear, but I will give an honest opinion of your situation as you decribe it.
