That floppy disk controller is the only way into the box and isn't nearly as vulnerable as a modern usb controller since there's no smarts!! The windows 95 system is going to be safer than a patched windows 10 on the network for their use case.
- vlovich123 6y agoFor the common-case en masse compromises, not a concern. For targeted attacks it can still be an issue. Stuxnet is an example of this where they compromised an air-gapped system. Stuxnet was obviously extremely sophisticated, technically and for the overall operation, but the principles still apply. Also people frequently misjudge how big of a target they may be & what their risk profile really is (not saying for this use-case specifically, just in general).
