Some methods for ATM hacking :)

BEST METHODES FOR HACKING ATM 

Fake processing center : 

• This method can be used if an attacker is able to access the cable that connects the cashier to the network. A hacker disconnects the ATM from the bank's network and then connects it to a device that acts as a fake processing center.

• The cashier is used to control the withdrawal of cash and sends commands to the cashier requesting that money be withdrawn from the selected tray. Voila! The attacker can use any card or enter any PIN code, the false transaction would seem legitimate.

Remote attack on several ATMs

• In this method an infiltrate is needed to work in the bank. The offender remotely obtains (acquires) a key used to open the cashier's rack. Although this key does not allow the attacker to access the withdrawal of money, the network cable would be exposed. The hacker disconnects the ATM from the bank's network and connects a special device that sends all the data to its own server.

• Often, the network to which you connect to the ATM is not segmented and the ATMs themselves may be misconfigured. In this case, with this device, a hacker could compromise several ATMs at once, even if the malicious device is only connected to one of them.

• The rest of the attack is carried out as we have explained before. A fake processing center is installed on the server and the attacker gains full control over the cashier. Using any card, the culprit can withdraw money from the cashier, regardless of the model

Black Box Attack

• As in the method described above, the attacker obtains the key from the cashier's frame and puts the machine into maintenance mode. Then, the hacker connects the so-called black box to the exposed USB port. A black box is a device that allows the hacker to control the cash drawer.

• While the criminal alters the cashier, the screen shows a message that says "in maintenance" or "out of service", although, in reality, it is possible to get money from it. In addition, the black box can be controlled wirelessly with a  smartphone . 

• hacker only has to press a button on the screen for sacardinero in cash and get rid of the black box to hide the evidence.

Malware attack

• There are two ways to infect a cashier with malware : inserting a USB device with malware (that means having the key to open the cashier's rack) or infecting the machine remotely, all after having compromised the bank's network.

• If the cashier is not protected against malware and does not use whitelists, a hacker can have the malware send commands to the cashier and sell money. The attack could be repeated until the cashier's money runs out.
