Abstract

The digital transformation of banking services has created unprecedented security challenges for financial institutions worldwide. As banking applications become increasingly complex and interconnected, traditional security monitoring approaches have proven inadequate against sophisticated cyber threats targeting financial systems. Current logging and monitoring implementations in banking environments often suffer from significant limitations, including insufficient contextual awareness, static rule-based detection mechanisms, and an inability to adapt to evolving attack methodologies. These shortcomings leave financial institutions vulnerable to advanced persistent threats, insider attacks, and coordinated cyber assaults that can compromise sensitive financial data and disrupt critical banking operations.
