The banks would love you to think they are the epitomy of electronic security.  HSBC are about to roll out an electronic PIN generator saying they're the first to do it.  BACS did it 15 years ago or more (albeit to a smaller client-base).

I am quite used to having lists of qualifications thrown at me on the security front - once it was "this guy here used to work for NASA in security systems" and I was equally unimpressed then.  The phrase creates an impression but is meaningless when analysed.  He came and went.

I've had an electronic log in device for ages. Barclays PINsentry.

Perhaps they meant an RSA token rather than the card prompted system; although Lloyds trialled that ages ago (they put my retired parents on the trial but not me )
