The FBI is warning financial institutions that their ATMs could be targeted in a hacking attempt.
The threat was reported Sunday by Krebs On Security, a popular cybersecurity blog run by the journalist Brian Krebs.
Krebs reported that the scheme is known as an “ATM cash-out,” which means the attackers can hack a bank or payment card processor and use stolen information to withdraw large sums of money at ATMs worldwide. His report cited a confidential alert the FBI shared with banks last Friday.
