Background of the Study
With the increasing adoption of mobile payment systems in Nigeria, security remains a primary concern for both consumers and financial institutions. First Bank of Nigeria, a leading financial institution in the country, offers mobile payment services that enable customers to conduct financial transactions securely. However, the growing sophistication of cyber threats, including data breaches, fraud, and identity theft, requires the development of more secure systems to safeguard user transactions.
Quantum computing, with its ability to process complex algorithms and its application to quantum cryptography, provides an innovative solution to enhance the security of mobile payment systems. Quantum encryption methods can secure data transmission, prevent unauthorized access, and protect users from potential cyberattacks. This study aims to explore the design and implementation of a quantum-based secure mobile payment system at First Bank of Nigeria, evaluating its potential to enhance the security of mobile banking services.
Statement of the Problem
Mobile payment systems, while convenient, are susceptible to a variety of cyber risks, including hacking, phishing, and transaction fraud. First Bank of Nigeria, like other financial institutions, faces the challenge of ensuring that their mobile payment system is secure against these threats. Traditional encryption methods, such as RSA and AES, are widely used but are vulnerable to future advancements in computing technology. Quantum-based encryption methods offer the promise of providing unbreakable security, yet the integration of quantum cryptography into mobile payment systems remains unexplored. This study investigates the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing a quantum-based mobile payment system to enhance security at First Bank of Nigeria.
