This is mainly because we have not completely solved the growing probl em of computer viruses and Trojans that can act on our computers against ou r will. Several methods are used against them, although none can be conside red 100% effective. Even more, most personal computers have little or no vi rus protection, so they are very easy to attack. This can become a problem as nearly all PC banking systems rely on authentication with identification passwords. This system is vulnerable and we will show that it does not pro vide enough protection for the users that want to make transfer operations from their accounts.
