This will be a special version of windows XP with all the rubbish taken out and only the required services running etc. We used a similar version of XP as a base OS for a security camera control device.

It will have been security validated to the extreme and to assume it is anything like the commerical version is wrong

Does it feature the bugs that WannaCry utilised? When you were tested those bugs were probably not known yet, so what if they are in the specialised version as well? I guess a security camera is connected to a network?
