Banking Technology Connections: June 26, 2012

June 26, 2012


Welcome to Banking Technology Connections. The goal of the newsletter is to communicate recent trends and issues facing Banking Technology Professionals.

Interesting survey in this week's selected articles, noting how the tech-savvy younger generation is more prone to security issues ("Keep an eye on the kids: Survey reveals tech security generation gap"). While this may seem contradictory, the younger generation is typically overly confident about their tech knowledge and thus ignores many of the security warnings, unlike the suspicious and skeptical older generation. Just another reason to continually look to enhance your security awareness training programs and help keep "the kids" out of trouble.
