Information Security Risk in Financial Institutions
The history of technology and banking is examined as
it relates to risk and technological determinism. It is proposed that
the services that banks offer are determined by technology and that
banks must adopt new technologies to be competitive. The adoption
of technologies paradoxically forces the adoption of other new
technologies to protect the bank from the increased risk of
technology. This cycle will lead to bank examiners and regulators to
focus on human behavior, not on the ever changing technology.
