ATM Maker Readies Anti-Hack Patch
 

The maker of a popular line of automated teller machines is planning a software upgrade that forces operators to change a default administrative pass code, after a surveillance tape showed a high-tech thief successfully hacking one of its ATMs in a Virginia gas station.

"If we can make them change this default password, the security will be infinitely greater," said Hansup Kwon, CEO of California-based Tranax Technologies.

Last week, news and video reports circulated of a swindler who strolled into a Virginia Beach, Virginia, gas station and, with no special equipment, reprogrammed a mini ATM to act as if it had $5 bills in its dispensing tray instead of $20 bills.
