The official total loss amounts to around 14 million euros. The main point of attack is security loopholes in conventional PIN\/TAN procedures.<br \/>\nThis makes it relatively easy for online fraudsters to obtain account access data and use an intercepted TAN to initiate a bank transfer, for example, usually via (unsuspecting) middlemen to a foreign account.   <\/p>\n<h2><strong>Greater security and more convenience for customers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>  More and more German banks are reacting to the worrying increase in crime on the Internet and are switching the authentication of their online services to the HBCI \/ FinTS security standard.<br \/>\nThe Volksbanken and Raiffeisenbanken affiliated with GAD in northern and western Germany, for example, will no longer be sending out TAN lists printed in advance from next spring.<br \/>\nThe simple Smart TAN procedure will also be phased out.<br \/>\nAs an alternative, cooperative banks will then offer a convenient HBCI legitimization option via VR-BankCard, among other things.<br \/>\nHBCI stands for Home Banking Interface &#8211; a security framework that the German banking industry agreed on back in the 1990s and which has since been further developed into the &#8220;Financial Transaction Service&#8221; (FinTS).<br \/>\nThe combination of HBCI and chip card is currently regarded as the most secure protection against hackers and Trojans.<br \/>\nA card reader such as the cyber <strong><i>Jack<\/i><\/strong>\u00ae from Reiner SCT must be connected to the customer&#8217;s PC.<br \/>\nAccount transactions are therefore very simple: first, the electronic transfer form is filled out on the computer as before.<br \/>\nThe customer then inserts their chip card into the reader and enters their PIN.<br \/>\nBefore the order is sent to the bank, it is signed and encoded by the chip on the card using a digital encryption key.<br \/>\nThe code and signature are invisible to hackers as they are only stored on the chip and a secure bank computer.<br \/>\nAs soon as the bank has received the order via encrypted lines, it decodes the digital signature and compares it with the stored signing key.<br \/>\nThe transaction is only carried out if both match.              &lt;p &#8220;Banks that enable their customers to bank online using HBCI-enabled chip cards are positioning themselves as particularly security-conscious service providers,&#8221; says Carsten Sommer, Managing Director of Reiner SCT.<br \/>\nThe Furtwangen-based company is one of the leading manufacturers of chip card readers and has long been a strong advocate of the use of HBCI and digital signatures.<br \/>\nThe aim is to significantly increase the security level of electronic business transactions.<br \/>\nWith its cyber <strong><i>Jack<\/i><\/strong>\u00ae product series, Reiner SCT offers a wide range of certified readers for a wide variety of applications.<br \/>\nFor online banking, for example, it is important that a card reader meets at least security level 2, i.e. that it has its own keypad.<br \/>\nSnooping programs that log entries on the PC keyboard unnoticed (so-called key loggers) therefore have no chance.<br \/>\nThe cyber <strong><i>Jack<\/i><\/strong>\u00ae family also includes models with their own display and biometric recognition, which correspond to security levels 3 and 4.<br \/>\nThe use of digital signature cards is also interesting for banks beyond secure account access via the Internet.<br \/>\nThis is because they can offer additional services, improve customer loyalty and exploit new business opportunities.<br \/>\nFor example, the cash card can be conveniently topped up via the web; your own PC becomes an ATM, so to speak.<br \/>\nAn HBCI \/ FinTS-enabled bank card is also ideally suited as a secure and anonymous means of payment for Internet purchases.            <em>(The text contains approx. 4,762 characters)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Furtwangen, January 15, 2008 &#8211; Security remains the central issue in online banking: according to the BKA, 3,100 cases of fraud had already been reported by the end of October 2007 &#8211; as many as in the whole of 2006.
