E-banking gives customers a lot of satisfaction in terms of getting a better service quality; it also gives banks a competitive advantage over the other players in the sector. However, the security of e-banking has received attention due to the fraudulent behaviour of fraudsters; the absence of adequate e-banking security has kept many people away from the service till today. In this paper, a review of the security challenges associated with e-banking has been presented. Equally, the challenges and characteristics of e-banking fraud have been mirrored. This paper also reviewed different types of fraud and attacks detection systems, as well as some preventive measures in place to secure e-banking services.
