In "Using the Web to Access Online banking? Who is Protecting the Browser Side?", Pedro Fortuna suggests what organizations in the Banking and finance sector should do next to protect their users, reputation, and business, apart from server-side measures.

"To date, there hasn’t been a way to understand if online users are being compromised or to be sure precisely what they are seeing whilst visiting and interacting with a web page. We know that endpoint security and anti-viruses fail and online users can be infected even with all the precautions that they may take. Server-side security is now very mature and excellent progress has been made in that particular field."

"Web technologies, and JavaScript in particular, were developed 20 years ago and were meant to do simple operations. But today’s JavaScript apps are much more complex.
