GLBA

Online banking introduces new risks to information security

The Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA) protects against threats to confidential customer information that can become exposed during online banking, e-commerce, and the transfer of electronic records. The information security requirements of GLBA are found in Section 501(b), which states the regulatory agencies and authorities that govern financial institutions will establish administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to insure security, protect against threats or hazards and protect against unauthorized access of critical information.
