Whereas:
Canadians increasingly depend on online banking websites and applications to manage essential financial affairs
Many banking websites rely extensively on client-side web scripts, including third-party scripts, to deliver features that could alternatively be implemented using modern, standards-based HTML5 and browser-native capabilities
Web scripts increase the attack surface of banking platforms and are a recognized vector for data exfiltration, supply-chain compromise, session hijacking, and unauthorized manipulation of web content
HTML5 and related web standards provide native, script-minimal alternatives for many common functions, reducing complexity and exposure to script-based vulnerabilities
The protection of Canadians’ financial and personal information is a matter of national economic security and public trust.
