The fraud landscape is changing rapidly. While financial institutions have implemented strong authentication to prevent fraudsters from gaining access to bank accounts, fraudsters have been developing sophisticated ways to circumvent established security measures such as one-time password (OTP) authentication. There has been a sharp increase in the number of man-in-the-middle and Trojan attacks, and it is imperative that financial institutions take the necessary precautions to protect their organizations and customers. RSA published the "Mitigating Man-in-the-Middle and Trojan Attacks Whitepaper," to help financial institutions understand the best practices for combating these dangerous threats by implementing a layered security approach.
