      Meeting The Customer Authentication Challenge

      Forrester clients often face a hybrid challenge with customer-facing websites: optimizing both security and user experience. The tightest security can be a usability disaster, and the most user-friendly user identification methods can put business assets at security risk. Poor online account recovery processes are costing businesses millions of dollars in operational costs to their contact centers as well as losses due to fraud. This report provides an assessment framework that helps security professionals identify scenario-specific login security and usability issues and make improvements in both -- rather than treating them as a zero-sum game.

      Online Bankers

      In an increasingly connected world, it’s not surprising that over three quarters of the US population are banking online on a PC: checking their account balances, transferring funds, or paying bills. For this Technographics Overview we’ll look at who are these online bankers, and explore their preferences and behaviors. Compared to the 24% of the population who are not banking online, online bankers have more investable assets and higher household incomes. Also, banks should take notice of their preference for multiple banking channels, openness towards branchless banking, desire for online money management tools through their own bank, and the inevitable shift towards digital banking on connected and mobile devices.
