ATM uses cloud computing for security reasons

Miel's electronic security Avinash Kada, in an information weekly, writes that ATM's private cloud computing can help solve problems such as ATM theft, safe cutting, the use of explosives to blow up ATM and Rob cash processing, as this can become a more automated process.

Talk of cloud computing and security over the past few years has prompted the cloud to become safer now, according to the Wall Street Journal, where a company seeks protection for data collected by ATM's cloud. Diebold is developing a machine that will use the cloud to remotely store information to reduce the risk of data disruption.

Sources say the number of ATMs around the world is expected to rise to 3.2 million by 2016 from 2.4 million in 2011. And most of the growth will come from India and China, but technologies like this are useful in helping protect sensitive data. Many security experts don't know what to think about, but this is an interesting attempt.

"Cloud computing is an opportunity, but it also raises a whole new set of security vulnerabilities," said Shawn Henry, assistant administrator of the FBI's crime, network and response service.
