The old hardware vs new OS challenge!

Our associate Jeremy Skinner comments:

“The owner of WhatsApp is caught between a rock and a hard place as a result of the underlying OS. The ATM Vendors have done much the same, as the old ATM Application has to be replaced when moving to Windows 10. The reason for change relates to support for the ATM vendors as opposed for security for WhatsApp. In both cases, hardware has changed to accommodate a new OS and a new Application.”
