ATMS how to break them to stop the fraud
summary
Collections of real ATM incidents show money emptied with no logs because low-level device commands and firmware lack authentication and encryption. Demonstrated attacks use a Raspberry Pi black box soldered into dispenser or USB/RS-485 lines to send replayable dispense commands (about two minutes to steal ~40 notes per cassette), malware hooks XFS/service providers to issue commands without disk traces, and a rogue processing center on the LAN to control many ATMs. Banks can change configs and monitoring now; vendors must fix firmware and device protocols.
