THE ROLE OF FIREWALLS AND COMPUTER BASE NETWORK SECURITY IN THE BANKING SYSTEM: A CASE STUDY OF ZENITH BANK PLC

ABSTRACT: The level of fortuity pertaining to an establishment that caters to clientele, such as banks specialising in security, is contingent upon the swiftness and precision with which the services are rendered within said banks, encompassing tasks such as information processing, notably data entry. The utilisation of data sorting, data updating, and service data, among other functions, is inherently more congruous with computational systems.  Hence, the procurement of these cutting-edge technological devices within the realm of business serves to propel one's position ahead of their competitors. Consequently, a significant number of newly established financial institutions prioritise the implementation of robust security measures and the computerization of firewalls. In summary, the present undertaking elucidates the concept of distributed computing in the realm of bank security processing, which entails the automation of bank security measures and the fortification of firewalls within the domain of banking operations, specifically focusing on the sphere of banking security.
