The termination of support for the operating system Windows XP could pose security threats to the ATMs.
A survey of CNN Money shows that 95% of world's ATMs still use this operating system. As of April 8 Microsoft stops the technical support for it, which means that there will be no security updates and the ATMs could become an easy target for hackers.
