Abstract
In this paper one of the most affective factors on security of e-banking will be discussed, by
accepting the use of information technology for the execution of the Traditional e-banking, As we
know that e-banking is done online and the customers are considered the active element and the
other party in e-banking operations. So if the level of customer knowledge in the use of IT ‫ص‬ low,
then this points that customers are not professional in the execution of the traditional e-banking
using IT , furthermore this create flaws in the security of e-banking by facilitating the sneaking into
the personal information and distrust in customer confidence of the e-banking security. which
leads to reject the use of technology in e-banking, And this is what will be discussed in this paper
by offering some security gaps which is resulting from the low level of customer knowledge in
information technology, and that will be studied through Technology Acceptance Model and In
light of this we will suggest some solutions.
Keywords: Trust, E-Banking, Customer Knowledge, Information Technology, Technology
Acceptance Model.
1. INTRODUCTION
Due to the important role of commercial banks in this era both in terms of economic or social
factors, the need has increased to use modern technology of computers, e-service systems
electronic banking basic and secondary rather than traditional information systems, and as a
result started the need to learn scientific methods to study these systems and can be introduced
and implemented in order to make them more efficient , effective , accurate and reliable
information for the beneficiaries.
The new information technology (IT) is turning into the most important factor in the future
development of banking, influencing banks marketing and business strategies. In recent years,
the adoption of e-banking began to occur quite extensively as a channel of Distribution for
financial services due to rapid advances in IT and intensive competitive banking markets [1]
While the use of online banking services is fairly new experience to many people [2] Carry with
them the underlying assumption that designs should encourage exploration or, at least, allow for
a trial-and-error approach to learning how to use systems. However, for e-banking and other
security-sensitive systems, a trial-and-error approach is generally not acceptable because a
security breach caused by an error may be exploited by an attacker before the error is revoked by
the user [3].
User adoption of a technology has become a crucial measure for the success of that technology
[4] For carrying out Internet banking properly, a basic knowledge of computers and the Internet is
required, which limits the number of people willing to gain this facility. Many people, who are not

familiar with computers and the Internet, often find it difficult to use Internet banking. Therefore,
for beginners, Internet banking is really time-consuming. In addition to this, people also find a
difficulty in trusting a completely mechanized system like Internet banking, in case of financial
matters. In many instances, a simple mistake, like clicking a wrong button, may create a big
problem [5].
Technology is evolving every day and in almost in every aspect but not everything that is coming
in the way is being accepted. Before anyone adopt a technology, all the Information about the
technology will be collected and combined to develop a belief about using the technology and that
belief will in turn make the individual to accept or reject the technology [6] when users are
satisfied with a technology the technology adoption is likely to be higher. In addition, Technology
Acceptance Model (TAM) asserts that users’. Decision to use a technology depends on two
factors: perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness [7]. Understanding users’ attitude
towards the adoption of new technologies has proved to be one of the most challenging issues in
technology adoption literature [8].
The increasing number of internet banking users indicates that the internet backing’s acceptance
level has improved. Internet baking’s acceptance level can be influenced by several factors. One
model that is often used to describe acceptance level of information technology is TAM
(Technology Acceptance Model) (Davis, 1989).perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use
is believed to be the basis in determining acceptance of information technology. Both of these
factors influence intention to use information technology before it can finally create the actual
usage in daily life [9].
This paper will discuss affective factors on security of e-banking in addition to the main factors
that affect e-banking security; the remainder of this paper is structured as follows: Section 2
describes Knowledge and skills of IT. Section 3 shows the threats to the security of e-banking..
Section 4 discusses Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) which used in this research. our
preposition to solve the problem and RESEARCH MODEL are given in section 5 , and we
conclude and present future work in Section 6.
2. KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS OF IT
Knowledge and skills improve people’s ability to meet their needs, extend the variety of options
open to them in all areas of their lives. The skills people possess can also enhance their sense of
self-worth, security and belonging. We live in a society where access to information and
proficiency with technology are becoming more important. An inclusive society will increasingly
require everybody to have high levels of knowledge and skills. Knowledge and skills include
education and training, as well as abilities gained through daily life [10] Individuals who are skilled
and always using the internet significantly affect the acceptance of Internet banking services.
Users who are knowledgeable in using computers and the Internet will influence them to use
Internet banking services [11]
Internet banking helps banks in cost saving, increase customer base, enable mass customization
for e-Business services, extend marketing and communication Channel, search for new
innovation services, and explore and develope of non-core business. However, customers’ ability
to subscribe to the Internet-base banking services depend on several factors such as user-
friendly interface, level of Internet experience, types of services provided, (for example e-mail, file
transfer, news, online financial services, shopping and multimedia services), attitude and
perception, access and delivery time and experience with the Internet [12]
3. THREATS TO THE E-BANKING SECURITY
Online banking is a main step for many customers as it is popular for customers to just go onto
their computers at home or work and log onto the online banking site, the customers will then be
able to exchange money from one account to another and pay bills with a press of a button. As
more technology for online banking is increasing and the security seems to be getting tighter

there are still possibilities that the accounts that you are going on can get hacked. There are
always chances to reduce the risk of fraud [13].Each and every time you log onto the internet
your computer is at risk of various threats with the aim of getting your personal details and
accessing your money. Behind the scenes we use various security measures to ensure that your
transactions and personal information are protected and safe. However, you as a customer can
also play a big part in protecting your banking and personal information. The first step in that
process is to understand the main threats to your computer [14]Unawareness of threat - If users
are unaware that their personal information is actively being targeted by criminals, they may lack
the standpoint needed to identify phishing threats and may not take the proper defense when
conducting online activities[15].
Many factors affecting why customers are concerned about their online banking security. The
same factors are also driving the need for enhanced authentication for online banking solutions.
These factors include the growing number of phishing attacks, the increased usage of pharming
and malware, and widespread data security breaches [16]
3.1 Cookies
A cookie is a small chunk of data generated by a web server and stored in a text file on your
computer’s hard disk. Cookies allow a web site to store information on a client computer for later
retrieval [17] furthermore Cookies are used as an authentication tool to allow users automatically
access certain web sites without asking the server to look at authorized users at the database
.the user’s log in name and password are stored in the cookie so that the user can access a
subscribed web site automatically each time the user clicks on the web page. The use of cookies
has privacy concerns because cookies contain information about the URL of the web page you
accessed [18]. Therefore Cookies have become a source of privacy concern in recent years .as
with most technologies in the computer industry ,this reputation has been earned by the misuse
of the technology more than the technology itself. Many web browsers have the use of cookies
enabled by default (without user caution), and many people have taken advantage of this
situation by profiling customer tendencies, collecting unnecessary personal information, and so
on .the semantics of cookies are fairly well designed for the task they are intended to accomplish.
The abuse, however, has resulted in cookies having a rather negative connotation [19].
3.2 Phishing
The term ‘phishing’ has its origins from the analogy that identity thieves who are using lures
usually in the form of e-mails to ‘fish’ for passwords and financial data from the ‘sea’ of Internet
users, [20] Phishing is typically carried out by e-mail spoofing or instant messaging and it often
directs users to enter details at a fake website whose look and feel are almost identical to the
legitimate one. Phishing is an example of social engineering techniques used to deceive users,
and exploits the poor usability of current web security technologies. Attempts to deal with the
growing number of reported phishing incidents include legislation, user training, public
awareness, and technical security measures [21] Phishing threat, instead a comprehensive
education and awareness program should be devised to go hand in hand with other technical
countermeasures to minimize the impacts of phishing to the Internet banking sector and regain
users trust[22] a phishing website is a broadly launched social engineering attack that attempts
to defraud people of their personal information including credit card number, bank account
information, social security number and their personal credentials in order to use these details
fraudulently against them. Phishing has a huge negative impact on organizations’ revenues,
customer relationships, marketing efforts and overall corporate image [23].
3.3 Key Logging
Keystroke logging which is often called key logging is the action of tracking (or logging) the keys
struck on a keyboard, typically in a covert manner so that the person using the keyboard is
unaware that their actions are being monitored [24] a keystroke logger on a consumer's personal
computer. It may create security risks if it exposes communication channels to hackers.
Spyware also may adversely affect the operation of personal computers, including slowing
processing time and causing crashes, browser capturing, home page resetting, installing dialers,

and the like. These harms are problems in themselves, and could lead to a loss in consumer
confidence in the Internet as a medium of communication and commerce [25] unfortunately for
consumers; key loggers are becoming very sophisticated. Once on a PC, they can track websites
visited by the user and only log the keystrokes entered on the websites that are of particular
interest to the cyber criminal; for example online banking websites [26] the principal problem with
internet banking is that customers use acknowledged untrusted systems in gaining access to the
bank internet facilities Trojan horse key loggers can, as has been identified in the scarfo case be
lurking on a customer's own computer collecting relevant information which can later be used for
nefarious activity[27].
3.4 Padlock
A common mistake made by end users believes that their online banking session is perfectly safe
when they use an SSL connection. Security experts continually state that everything is safe if
there is a yellow padlock symbol in the browser window But SSL is designed as a secure tunnel
from the end user computer to the bank mainframe and does not protect the end points such as
the end user’s computer [28]
FIGURE 1: The Yellow Padlock Symbol as Displayed in Internet Explorer.
External trust seals are items of a general nature that are used to engender trust, such as the
VeriSign symbol and the padlock representing security. Internal regulatory seals include the
banks’ own policy declarations, and corporate branding. The wide-ranging nature of the
referenced phenomena demonstrates the differing ways in which the subjects are choosing to
interpret the signs of trust embedded within the e-banking home-pages [29].
4. TECHNOLOGY ACCEPTANCE MODEL
The technology acceptance model (TAM), developed by Davis, F., et al., (1989),is one of the
most widely used and influential models in the field of information systems, technology and
services. It has been validated to be powerful as a framework to predict user acceptance of new
technology. The goal of TAM is to predict information system acceptance and diagnose design
problems before users have any noteworthy experience with the system. TAM measures the
determinants of computer usage in terms of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use.
TAM has been effective in the modeling of acceptance of IT and has received extensive
experimental support through the studies predicting the use of information systems [30] TAM has
proven to be a theoretical model in helping to explain and predict user behavior of information
technology [31] User acceptance remains a obstacle to the success of new information
technologies (IT). In an attempt explain this, Davis (1989) a thorough understanding of the TAM
model may help us to analyze the reasons for resistance toward the technology and would further
enable us to take efficient measures to improve user Acceptance of the technology. TAM used in
several IS studies and proved useful determining technology acceptance, especially to explain
computer usage behavior. Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) has been widely used to predict
user acceptance and use based on perceived usefulness and ease of use [32]. In our research
we will update the TAM into more suitable model for security of e-banking , we will show that in
the next section in figure 2.
5. RESEARCH MODEL AND HYPOTHESES
When the information technology began the development of information systems, the users
believes it is difficult to deal with these systems and the prospect of facing a problem in the daily
implementation of e-banking. So, we must take into account the fact that the failure use of
information technology in the application of banking are often due to lack of users acceptance

and the lack of knowledge in the use of banking applications using information technology, the
lack of knowledge indicator leads to falling into some flaws This flaws and gaps are recorded
against the negative use and because it deals with the systems that contains financial values,
and this generates among customers who are not familiar with information technology fears of
using e-banking, and these fears pointer to the lack of confidence in the application of e-banking.
FIGURE 2: Research Model (Technology Acceptance Model).
TAM shows the situation of the user to the technology in general, our updated model shown in
figure 2 adds several factors such as the extent of knowledge of users in the use of e-banking ,
risk factor that affects the security and confidence factor, as all these factors affect the
acceptance of the use of technology in e-banking . The study used a model to accept an
expanded technology shown in the figure 2 so as to examine the factor customer knowledge in
information technology affecting the use of IT in the banking applications. Accordingly, the
following subsections will express the propositions emerged from our model:
5.1. Customer’s Knowledge of IT
In general the customers know the low-level techniques lead to the appreciation of the potential
added value that is inherent in the technology. Experience with the use of the computer, such as
the practice of some online business, correspondence and communicate with friends, may affect
customers' attitudes towards online banking [33] Therefore the skills to use computers and the
Internet for customers of the basics of online banking and this, some countries in Europe
worthwhile to develop individual abilities and skills to use the Internet users have Increasing the
skills of the individual lead to a trend in most of the application of online banking services [34] In
addition, the Some users who do not have a good knowledge about the security risks of online
banking, although they are aware of the risks, or perhaps because they know that there is a
danger or just ignore the risk [35] In spite of this, people want to use and benefit of technology,
including, but cannot ignore the effects and risks that may result from it, however, remains lack of
knowledge of an obstacle to the use of technology [36] Although the electronic banking process
enables customers to control banking operations. Clients such as students, who are familiar with
the internet, you should not find electronic banking processes are complex, however, and
efficiency. Customers can also find some difficulties with the service and personal computers and
the Internet (such as security and safety concerns complexity, and distrust of regulations and
standards, and traditional principles) [37].
H1a: The level of knowledge a customer’s has about IT affects on Perceived ease of use.
When the level of customer’s knowledge in information technology is high this will lead to high
understanding of the banking procedures and doing them faster and thus will be reflected

positively on the ease of use, leading to the benefit from the use of information technology in the
Daily banking practices.
This proves that the customer will evaluate e-banking easy to use if they have experience of
computer use .The experience on the use of computers owned by the customer, will make
customers more familiar in using e-banking . Customers who have experience on the use of
computers will be easier in the use of e-banking, compared with customers who do not have
experience on the use of computer [38].
H1b: The level of knowledge a customer’s has about IT affects on perceived usefulness.
5.2 The Perceived Ease of Use and Perceived Usefulness
Earlier research suggested two determinants that are especially important. First, people tend to
use or not use an application to the extent they believe it will help them perform their job better.
We refer to this first variable as perceived usefulness. Second, even if potential users believe that
a given application Is useful, they may, at the same time [39]
For studying the acceptance of e-banking, the general TAM is inadequate because the
technology used and the transaction environment in e-banking are different from that of
conventional IT and the normal business environment. Before accepting e-banking services,
users should be aware about benefits, security issues and the risk associated with it [40].
Perceived ease of use was observed to have no direct effect on behavioral intention but have an
indirect effect influence on behavioral intention through its effect on perceived usefulness and
perceived risk this result probably is caused by the fact that a big portion of our sample consists
of mature internet banking user who are not facing problems in using the system given the
usefulness of the system properties .the impact of Perceived ease of use on perceived risk is
appeared to be significant meaning that the system friendliness Lowers customers fears about
the problems that may have about their transactions security and personal privacy .finally
perceived risk was observed to negatively affect usage continuance[41].
H2 a: Perceived ease of use effect on perceived usefulness.
H2 b: Perceived ease of use effect and create security risks.
When customers believe in ease of use of information technology in the implementation of
banking, this is indicator to the absence of any risks that may arise from doing business banking,
hence the customers underestimate the risks that threaten the security of banking which leads to
the low probability of risk through belief in ease of use. Accordingly customers reassure and do
not take any degree of security interest and this may lead to security threats
5.3 Perceived Risk
Perceived risk is defined as a consumer's perceptions of the uncertainty and the possible
undesirable consequences of buying a product or service [42]. It's only human. People make
mistakes, learn from them, and move on to the next challenge usually without dire consequences.
But in business, particularly in information technology, mistakes can be costly. From information
theft to lost worker productivity to missed sales opportunities, technology errors can put your
business at risk. [43]
Legal risk becomes an important issue in internet banking, and one aspect of this is how any
losses from security breaches should be apportioned between banks and their customers.
Customers should be responsible for any security breach or system problem that is due to
negligence on their part, and this should be reflected in the contractual agreements for internet
banking services. But if the damage is occurred for system breakdown, negligence of bank
employees, attack by hacker or any other parties; the bank must be liable to cover the damage
[44] this also results in large security risks imposed on users that have little or no knowledge
about the risks and damage that can be inflicted by using the Internet.[45] In history of IT

especially security incidents, the biggest mistake has always been to rely on the trust of the other
systems and assume the systems are not compromised.
H3 a: the Perceived risks have a negative impact on perceived usefulness.
H3 b: the Perceived risks have a negative impact on Security and privacy
As Koller (1988) wrote, the level of the significance of a decision specifies the influence of the
potential risk. It is obvious that the acceptance of electronic trading is a long-term important
decision for most of the customers and that is the reason why the role of risking is so important
here [46]. Lim also indicated that the perceived risks are so important in explaining the customers’
behavior, in that, the customers are willing to increase their satisfaction from on-line purchase to
its maximum rate by stopping making mistakes. Regarding the theory of the perceived risk, the
customers perceive the risk because they face a kind of uncertainty and potential dissatisfaction.
Such feelings originate from the consequents of their purchase [47] the risk perception of thee.
Banking customers primarily grows out of the IT lapses and the resultant losses incurred in
fraudulent access to customer accounts [48] the main components of Perceived Risk are
perceived security and trust, which have emerged as the top issues in banking adoption. This
construct reflects an individual’s subjective belief about the possible negative consequences of
some type of planned Action, due to inherent uncertainty which is likely to negatively influence
usage intentions. Trust is at the heart of all kinds of relationships [49] there are still customers
who fear to make use of IB, as they are concerned with security aspects of such a system.
Previous research has found the risk associated with possible losses from the online banking
transaction is greater than in traditional environments [50]
5.4 Security and privacy
Security Privacy is an indicator used to measure the perceived security and privacy of e-banking
[51]. It consists of five elements namely the financial security of e-banking, the trust which
individuals have in the service, privacy protection of the customer, security level password and
the presence of a third party to validate the Bank’s identity. Ease of Use is also an index based
on Davis (1989), which contains 4 elements namely e-banking is easy to use, simple, has a user-
friendly website and is a flexible system for interaction [52].
Concept of perceived security may be useful to capture the user’s subjective perception of the
security risks involved in e-banking. Several studies including Jih et al. (2005) indicate that user
adoption of e-banking is affected by perceived security. This supports a view of security as crucial
to the overall usability of e-banking systems [53] Security issues are a major source of concern
for everyone both inside and outside the banking industry. E-banking increases security risks,
potentially exposing hitherto isolated systems to open and risky environments [54] the importance
of security and privacy for the acceptance of online banking has been noted in many banking
Studies [55]
H4. Security and privacy have a negative impact on trust
If the index of security and privacy is low, it generates fears among customers leading to reduced
customer Trust indicator; in this case the customer will go to non-use of electronic banking
5.5 Trust
Trust can be defined as “function of the degree of risk involved in the e-banking transaction ,and
the outcome of trust is proposed to be reduced perceived risk ,leading to positive intention
towards adoption of e -banking [56].Trust and security have always been essential features of
the banking system and protection of information assets is necessary to establish and maintain
trust between the bank and its customers [57] Lack of Customer trust is a major hurdle in the
growth of e-banking although winning consumer trust is more important in online environment;
online trust does share a number of characteristics with the offline trust [58] Customer trust in the
technology of e-banking is a huge hurdle given the intangible nature of the service .trust includes

essential notions of technology security Reliability and protection against hackers and theft of
client identity or financial information [59] added that to increase external validity of TAM, it is
necessary to further explore the nature and specific influences of technological and usage–
context factors that may alter the user’s acceptance. For instance, recent research has indicated
that “trust” has a striking influence on users’ willingness to engage in online exchanges of money
and sensitive personal information [60] The use of this new technology is too new to the
developing countries, and this may be a cause of the lack of trust from the customers in using the
internet banking or e-banking as a whole. When the customers have a feeling of no trust and
uncertainty for the phenomena, it is believed that they look at it as a risk [61] numerous studies
have tried to find correlations between trust and experience with a new system, concept, or
relationships, including a correlation to the frequency of e-commerce Activity, and as such, other
researchers have noted that trust may be significantly influenced by the culture of a given society
[62] the importance of trust and security as direct or indirect influencing factors in an individual’s
intention to engage in online transactions. Trust refers to a degree of an individual willingness to
be vulnerable to the actions of others [63].
H5. Lack of Trust has a negative impact on actual e-banking Use
6. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
Through this study we conclude that the level of customer knowledge in information technology is
important factor influencing the security of banking, in other words the higher the level of
customer knowledge in information technology the fewer security flaws that may occur, and this is
an indicator that the banking security risks will be reduced and increase the degree of safety , this
shows that increase the degree of safety generate confidence among customers who use
banking applications through the Internet, We conclude that the high level of customers
knowledge leads the customers to take precautions and follow the correct behavior to protect
their data from attack. When users become more familiar with a technology and Internet, in this
case, they tend to have higher expectations towards the technology. This research is initial step
for future work; in the future we will conduct experimental studies to test our model.
