Government must set and publish standards - not for the banks, for the population.
The Gov't is pushing people to live on their smartphone, needs to set up a software store of supported apps, setup a checklist of how to setup each phone, and which phones have been verified for security.
Do not take this wrong, a person can use any phone and download any app, but the government cannot take responsibility for those apps. The gov't must take responsibility for "supported" apps, be they from a bank, insurance, medical, transportation, or any other form.
Today, many phones will upload data to a cloud, the cloud storage is not in Israel. The gov't must setup either instructions to disable cloud upload, or take responsibility for the data.
Last week I found that a company where I have money stopped using account/password access and permits access via ID+phone number. The PM's cyber team claims this is fine and I should protect my phone. The company did not warn me that the responsibility was on me via my phone.
