True. With this ransom ware and hacking lark, I wonder how many attempts per day are made on the banks.jimjames said:
I'd be more worried about hacking or ransomware attacks than being bombed. Seems a far more likely scenario at the moment and could still prevent access to any account data.

There is also redundancy built into the systems, and disaster recovery plans exist and get tested regularly.
