WIRED BANKS OPEN TO RISKS
hi there
its smarty back with a new news
A nationalised bank in delhi reported an unusual robbery a couple of weeks ago. An amount worth 27 lakhs or say 59000$ were missing from one of its customers account .But there was no evidence of a robbery or loot , as it was much more sophisticated.
An employee of an infotech company,who took care of the annual maintainence of the computers for that bank had siphoned off the money in front of banks staff as no one even knows what he was doing , he broke into account details and transfers the money to his account by just a click of a button.
the incident probably exposes the state of e-security here in india espacially in banking sector ,
though banks have been agressive in wiring there buissness but no one had gone to provide the security to these banks and even banks aren't intrested in e-security as they thaught its waste fo time and money ,
but this incident tells us that u just had to know someone's account no. and access to his pc or just some information about the the guy and anyone can take off his money.
the banks are paying a lot of amount to make their business wired or say are using computers , by now 90% of banks had been connected to computers but very few pays attention and money for INFORMATION SECURITY(IS) .
well hope that with this incident banks and other peoples starts paying attention to IS.
well thats for now
see you again
