offers major opportunities to banks and their customers. This has made the transition to

should train its staff on the use and the benefits associated with technology transfer
adoption so that they can assist customers when the need arise, the banks should always
update their information security systems to mitigate the occurrence of cyber-attacks. The
banks should invest in cyber security infrastructure to safeguard their information system

the country. The bank management must organize seminars, to solicit the views of the
