ATM pokie

In what the presenter suggests is a more successful attack than John Conner on an ATM, Barnaby Jack gave a successful second-time presentation at the 2010 Black Hat Conference in Las Vegas, after last years was pulled at the request of one of the ATM vendors. He demonstrated two exploits, one via the network connection, the other via USB. You might ask how you can get at the ATMs USB slot; well the vendors provide a standard lock. As happens so often it seems that only a combination of physical and software security will provide a robust system.

Really interesting demonstration and a great example of thinking outside the (strong) box.
