Product Code: R717-4Description This Prophis eResearch report summarizes general and detailed assessments and comparisons of 15 selected Internet banking security concepts. Findings are based on a representative survey of 990 US adults with Internet access conducted between December 2006 and January 2007 by Prophis Research. It provides the financial services sector needed actionable and relevant information to develop, manage, and market the enhancements of Internet banking security more effectively. It provides both a wealth of findings as well as insightful interpretive analysis and lays out findings in a way that empowers readers to interpret and draw their own conclusions and develop their own strategies. As such, it is intended to be a valuable tool to both decision-makers and their advisers.Table of Contents 1 Background
