How about providing USB security to Online Banking?
Whenever a customer opens a account at an online bank he would be provided a USB device which he would have to plug-into the USB port whenever he wants to make a transactions.The site would identify the customer by accessing the USB device connected to the Computer's USB port.This USB device provided by the bank each would be a unique one for each customer.
Though this idea may not be cost feasible but with the advent in the technology more new cheaper types of the USB devices can be developed.
