Abstract | In recent years, significant evolution of internet technology has created an opportunity for financial institutions to provide easy access and convenience to banking services for their customers. Online banking services have been found since the early 1980’s with the aim of empowering banking customers with the ability to access their banking accounts and perform a variety of financial transactions from anywhere, at any time (Shannak, 2013). Although, the adoption of online banking has significantly increased over the past years, so has the daily risks and threats associated with this adoption where online banking customers are considered the weakest link in the security best practice chain. Therefore, in order to protect and secure online banking customers from these cyber threats, security control enforcement mechanisms must be in place and the financial institutions should provide guidelines to their customers to in avoiding such threats. |
