A bank that holds one of my credit cards is now suggesting
very strongly that it's users install a program called
Trusteer Rapport which they say will protect against keystroke
loggers, man-in-the-middle attacks, phishing and counterfeit
websites and many of the most sophisticated trojan horse
malware. They say it runs alongside the present firewall and
anti-virusware in my present browser(i.e. "IE", Firefox,
Chrome in Windows or good browsers on Apple machines). It
communicates behind the scenes with the banks servers when
connected to a website of a participating bank. Their website
is <http://www.trusteer.com/landing/bankofamerica>
Has anyone investigated whether this software is compatible
with Tor and whether the ability to protect against many of
the weak links in the user's computer is worthwhile? Since it
only works with subscribing banks, it does nothing for most
browsing, for one thing.
