Kaspersky Lab: Το 43% των Ευρωπαίων χρηστών του Διαδικτύου θεωρεί ότι οι παραδοσιακές τραπεζικές συναλλαγές στα ταμεία είναι ασφαλέστερες από τις online transactions, according to research Kaspersky Lab and B2B International. 
Despite these fears, however, most of them still make some of their online payments, but many do not even take the basic security measures, endangering their money, but also the reputation of the banks.
One of the easiest ways to get criminals to access online bank accounts is to present themselves as their owners.
This can be done by stealing information about the account, with scammers either creating phishing pages where users unwittingly enter their login information, or use a banking Trojan when users link to legitimate websites of the bank.
Both traditional computers and mobile devices are vulnerable to attacks they.

In addition, about half (49%) reported that offline payments are more reliable than online payments. At the same time, 43% agrees that "natural" banking is safer than online.
However, despite these fears, the majority of Internet users make online payments. 78% of European Internet users use desktop or laptop computers for online payments, 27% uses tablet and 29% smartphone.
It is worth noting that 12% of Smart-TV owners have admitted that they have used their Smart-TV for such actions. At the same time, according to the survey, almost one in five European users (17%) does nothing to protect their financial data on the Internet.
"Consumers seem to prefer traditional banking because they are afraid of falling victim to Internet fraud. This may prevent adoption online and mobile devices payment systems, which even have high profit margins. This will force banks to invest more of their resources in shops, which generally have a low profit margin.
At the same time, among those who have adopted it online payments and mobile payments, there is an ongoing security issue, as they may be putting their money – and a bank's reputation – at unnecessary risk. Therefore, it is vital today that banks invest in technology to ensure a safe online environment for their customers.
