This article illustrates the complexity of a well developed Malware application installed on ATMs around the world. I thought this article was significant because of the duration and maturity of this program. The level of sophistication this program was able to achieve is remarkable, but at the same time very chilling. This article shows how people not only need to be careful while shopping online and using online banking, but also mindful about where they use their debit card or ATM card. Staying diligent about reconciling bank accounts on a regular basis has obviously become even more essential. I chose this article because nearly everyone uses an ATM from now and then, in doing so, exposing ourselves to yet even more risk.
