Mobile Banking Apps


Security Vulnerabilities Found in 90% of Top Mobile Banking Apps.



   “A researcher has discovered several security vulnerabilities in 40 personal banking apps from 60 of the world's biggest banks.”  This is the first time I have read an article which made me realize how serious a problem it is to use the banking apps. The article made it clear to me, for example, the risk for my wife. I often tell my wife not to use baking apps or online banking for her checking account. Also the article mentions how important it is to use the SSL protocol. It says, “Ariel Sanchez from IOActive found that 90% of the apps contain non-SSL links,” That made me shudder how they aren’t use the SSL protocol.
