Banksys was founded in 1989 through the merger of two Belgian payment networks: Mister Cash and Bancontact. For Banksys and their customers security is considered to be a high priority at every stage of a transaction - from the retail terminal to the central server (HOST). Banksys: "Centrale computer is springlevend" - Datanews (419 words) Banksys gaf eindelijk tekst en uitleg (en weerlegde enkele hypotheses van het artikel dat we hier vorige week maandag publiceerden) maar het zal wellicht nog verschillende maanden duren eer de precieze oorzaak meegedeeld kan worden. Banksys kon niet eerder bevestigen dat zijn leverancier geen schuld trof (zelfs niet tijdens de persconferentie van afgelopen donderdag) omwille van het onderzoek en omwille van verzekeringsredenen. Banksys preciseert nog dat HP de technologie voortdurend vernieuwt en verbetert, "zodat het meer dan belachelijk is te spreken van 30 jaar oude technologie." Bankys is in 1999 overgegaan naar de laatste versie van het platform, de S-serie.
