Abstract

El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar los niveles de conciencia y las medidas de prevención frente al fraude financiero por transacciones digitales en Ecuador; incluso, evaluar el rol de las instituciones financieras y la efectividad de las estrategias de seguridad implementadas para proteger a los usuarios. Se aplicaron encuestas y entrevistas en ciberseguridad sobre la percepción del riesgo y las medidas de seguridad actuales, incluyendo un análisis de las prácticas de seguridad adoptadas por las instituciones financieras. Se reveló una disparidad en el nivel de conciencia entre los usuarios, con una parte significativa aún desinformada sobre los riesgos asociados, identificándose áreas de mejora, particularmente en la necesidad de mayores inversiones en tecnología y capacitación continua para los usuarios.

The objective of this study was to analyze the awareness levels and prevention measures against financial fraud through digital transactions in Ecuador; including to evaluate the role of financial institutions and the effectiveness of security strategies implemented to protect users. Cybersecurity surveys and interviews were applied on risk perception and current security measures, including an analysis of security practices adopted by financial institutions. A disparity in the level of awareness among users was revealed, with a significant portion still uninformed about the associated risks, identifying areas for improvement, particularly in the need for greater investments in technology and ongoing training for users.
