F5 Online Fraud

We heared that F5 Fraud Protection Function of “ Malware detection “ & “ Phishing attacks Protection “ can be easily mitigated using more cheap solution which is “ Bank Tokens “ that requests Token number with Every transaction What do u think ?

    Not quite sure what you mean by 'Bank Tokens' but I assume you mean one-time password tokens. These are fine for performing user authentication but it doesn't help with malware detection or phishing attack protection.

    The title is very misleading, to say the least.

    Ok ... But What if Token number is requested with Every Transaction ... by that it protects against Automated transactions
