Lloyds Banking Upgrades Windows XP ATMs to Windows 7

[Silviu]

Banks are still working to move their ATMs from Windows XP to a newer and more secure platform, and today Lloyds Banking Group announced that 1,200 cash machines will switch to Windows 7 in the coming days.

V3 is reporting that consumer banking software company NCR is preparing an upgrade campaign for several companies, including the Lloyds Bank, Halifax, Bank of Scotland and TSB.

"Consumers are increasingly aware of the value that technology can provide when they bank with us and demand a compelling experience," said Gillian Sephton, head of ATM channel and branch security at Lloyds Banking Group.

Thanks to Windows 7, bank customers can now be provided with some new features, including larger screens and voice support for visually impaired people. The 15-inch screens will also be quicker to respond to commands, while the new Windows 7 platform will provide enhanced security and support for contactless readers.

Worldwide, approximately 95 percent of the ATMs were estimated to be running Windows XP, but banks are one by one taking the necessary steps to upgrade all their cash machines to a newer platform. Some have decided to purchase extended Windows XP support from Microsoft until the transition is successfully completed.

E o discutie mare pe un alt forum despre asta, legat de faptul ca pana acum, toti baietii care aveau DUBRUTE pornit 24/7 nu puteau prinde XP-uri datorita autorului care a sacrificat autentificarea pt XP in favoarea Windows 7.
