Abstract

This study examines how digitalization affects financial security through cashless transactions and cryptocurrency. The report analyzes digitalization's benefits and difficulties, evaluates regulatory frameworks and cybersecurity measures, and identifies policy implications for digital financial security. The study analyzes digital financial services and products using a comprehensive literature evaluation of academic research, industry reports, and regulatory papers. Consumer behavior, cybersecurity, regulatory frameworks, and technological advancements impacting the digital financial ecosystem are revealed via secondary data. Digitalization promotes financial inclusion, economic empowerment, and innovation but poses regulatory uncertainties, cybersecurity risks, and technological constraints. Policy implications for digital financial security include regulatory clarity, risk-based regulation, cybersecurity resilience, and consumer empowerment. To increase economic security and confidence in the digital economic ecosystem, policymakers should prioritize regulatory clarity, risk-based regulation, cybersecurity resilience, and consumer education. By addressing these concerns and enacting evidence-based regulations, stakeholders can create a more inclusive, transparent, and resilient digital financial ecosystem.
