This may not be an ATM, but.. a large proportion of the security of an

Industry standards are two examples of such standards.



...if companies which handle credit/debit card transactions actually
follow these guidelines.

The reason I mention this is that, if I recall correctly, this was
the issues with (specifically) TJX -- they 'chose' not to follow the
PCI requirements.
