Publisher's Synopsis
Although it is widely perceived that banks and other financial institutions are virtually defenceless against computer fraud, this is not actually the case. There are a number of technical safeguards and operational guidelines available which can reduce the risks of interference with the computer system. This book addresses problems of system security and provides a comprehensive review of the kinds of threats that exist and the best defences against them. It looks at common practices in the financial world which provide criminals with opportunities.
