Digital Handling of Financial Activities using Fintect Approach
Project Area of Specialization Software EngineeringProject SummaryFinTech stand for Financial Technology which refers to companies whose business financial services are mostly based on the technology platform to innovate products and perform financial services more efficiently and smoothly. In other words, FinTech is an emerging type of financial services in the 21st century that some start-up companies are trying to change the form of the traditional transaction into new, modern and more effective methods by applying high-tech devices in financial sectors such as mobile payments, money transfers, loans, fundraising and even asset management. This application will help its users to manage all their cash handling with ease and comfort. Through this application, a user can make transactions, pay a bill, and do purchases anytime, anywhere, whenever he/she wants. The proposed project is based on the idea of FinTech, which is emerging rapidly and shaking up the financial services drastically. It is being used and applied in the financial services sector, chiefly used by financial institutions themselves on the backend of their businesses. FinTech is coming to represent technologies that are disrupting financial services. The main aim of this project is to provide users the ease of transactions without the headache of handling credit cards, debit cards or cash. FinTech is changing consumer behavior and expectations at a tremendous rate. Consumers are now so used to being able to access data and information anywhere and everywhere.
Fintech contributed to creating a new face for the global financial sector and offered many new improvements to solve the problems and obstacles that customers often faced in their financial transactions. From Accenture and CB Insights 2014 graph, it is obvious to see that there was a significant increase in the global investment in financial technology firms between 2008 and 2014. As long as Pakistan is concerned, it stands at a very interesting point in its development journey as it provides an excellent opportunity for FinTech to grow and operate and contribute to the country’s economic and GDP growth. The biggest problems of Pakistan like corruption and lack of taxpaying individuals can be addressed through FinTech as it can play a vital role by bringing transparency creating a positive impact on the economic health of the country. It is the need of the hour to not only invest and support the local upcoming FinTech in the country but to create an environment conductive to the growth of FinTech in Pakistan. As our proposed idea is based on FinTech, this application will discard the old and traditional ways of payment procedures. The application that we are going to develop will be a free of cost service to its consumers. There will be no hidden or extra charges, like other FinTech organizations, in any transaction.
Project Objectives- To develop an application that will provide ease to its consumers.
- To implement a distributed system that will not be based on traditional databases.
- To provide a more secure environment for financial activities to its users.
- To determine the hassle of handling several cards and cash, and develop something a user can operate with his/her phone.
- To develop an environment that can help the customers minimize the transaction costs.
- To implement a system through which the recipients can receive money immediately without having to wait too long as well as save time for the customers.
- To make it easy for generic people to pace-up with the digital world and use the new ways of services.
Project Implementation Method
- Insecure Deserialization:
Serialization is commonly used for transmission of sets of data across a network. If deserialization code is improperly implemented, a malicious transmission could allow an attacker to exploit a vulnerable machine. While no reported attacks have taken advantage of deserialization vulnerabilities, blockchain systems commonly use serialization for transmission of transactions. Since transaction data is under the control of (potentially malicious) users, vulnerable deserialization code could lead to compromise of blockchain systems.
- Insufficient Logging and Monitoring:
While secure development processes are important, they are only half the battle. Once a system has been deployed, it is also important to log and monitor events on the system for abnormalities that may signal an attack. Failure to do so may leave the system vulnerable to exploitation via attack vectors overlooked during the design process. The blockchain creates an immutable ledger of actions taken on the system, making it ideal for logging purposes. However, while logging is great, it is useless as no-one is looking at the logs.
- Blockchains can be private or public:
While public blockchjain has grabbed the early headlines and applauses for empowering anonymity, you can create private blockchains that limit access to explicit users. Regardless you get the benefits of a decentralized peer-to-peer network, yet anybody accessing a private blockchain must confirm their identity to gain access privileges, and it tends to be confined to explicit transactions.
Conclusion:
As the above reasons show, mismanagement of data and cyber-attacks are probably going to intensify, making it even more critical that security and privacy issues are addressed. Blockchain isn’t only secured, reliable yet also transparent, which makes it significantly more appealing to companies.
Benefits of the ProjectThe consumers will be able to make use of FinTech. He/she can transfer and deposit the money into mobile application free of cost and will be able to exchange money with other people all with his/her mobile. Carrying your mobile phone will become essential for all sorts of transactions. Payment through mobile phones will be incentivized similar to the benefits and point systems for spending on credit cards. What else could benefit a consumer more than this?
Technical Details of Final DeliverableAccording to the data, Pakistan, with a mobile penetration of 69%, is quickly becoming an economy reliant on mobile phone technology with an extremely rapid growth of 3G and 4G internet, building a whole new generation of digital natives. In addition to the ease of transactions through this proposed idea, we can boost up the realm of financial services extensively. We can connect our project with banks and other organizations providing financial handling or payments which will make things hustle-free and smooth for the consumers and provider both. The increase in the consumer’s base would make the banks and other financial institutions more persuaded to provide more convenience and improved assistance from banking institutions for a seamless user experience.
