They are networked, but the OS is simple enough to be audited and should be super stripped down too.
even if it's networked, hacking anything only through network (without any entrypoint) is very much complicated.
I don't know anything about their security, but if someone tries to hack them without any entrypoint, i'm pretty sure the hacker will be detected long before he ever get his way in.

Networking is always a possible entrypoint.

I don't think anybody consider this as an entrypoint. it is just way too hard/complicated to hack a machine 100% through network. Unless you mean "Local area network", it is another thing. But hacking anything 100% from outside+ 0 actual entrypoint, it is almost impossible, even for professional hacker.

Hacking an ATM is actually completely possible via networking, and it's not as hard as you'd initially think. The streams aren't hard to intercept depending on how it's set up. The problem in-lies that the information is encrypted, usually via a method contracted by the bank (or just a bolstered established method such as triple encrypted 256-bit AES as a general standard).

It'd be an absolute bitch to do, but it's certainly possible.

When there's a flaw, there's always a way.
it is not a question of flaw, it's just that if someone is trying to acces to your own router, he will get detected long before he can do anything. The best way for a hacker to get what he wants is through an entrypoint. That's why they keep sending spam mail, their goal is to trap a single, common, little, not important at all employee, for him to click on the link, and boom, the hacker got his entrypoint.

If it was only a question of flaw, there would be tons of companies who would be bankrupted by now.

:rofl2: 256-bit? a bitch to do? i think "a bitch to do" is kind of a light word for that ;)
