Online Banking: Information Security Law vs. Intruders

Abstract

In this paper I will discuss four scenarios regarding cyber crimes specifically directed at
financial institutions and give specific examples. Also, I will discuss the malicious Zeus and URL zone
bank malware Trojans that is currently causing security issues and threats to some financial institutions.
Expected results from study and research is to bring awareness of increased activity of cyber-attacks
directed at financial institutions, call for a global alliance against cyber-pirates, and point out that
financial institution's have a responsibility to protect and secure information as custodians of their
customer's sensitive/legacy data online.
