This code can hack nearly every credit card machine in the country

Tuesday, June 9, 2015 10:46

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

‘The passcode, set by default on credit card machines since 1990, is easily found with a quick Google searach and has been exposed for so long there’s no sense in trying to hide it. It’s either 166816 or Z66816, depending on the machine.

With that, an attacker can gain complete control of a store’s credit card readers, potentially allowing them to hack into the machines and steal customers’ payment data (think the Target (TGT) and Home Depot (HD) hacks all over again). No wonder big retailers keep losing your credit card data to hackers. Security is a joke.

This latest discovery comes from researchers at Trustwave, a cybersecurity firm.’
