Patently incorrect? No. It is possible.
Even if the confidentiality of your data is protected, you are still vulnerability to attacks on availability and integrity of the data.
For example, you may fully encrypt all your data, use VPNs, etc. But you can still loose service due to network congestion or routers failing due to other unprotected traffic on your network.
That is not as large of a problem as losing part(s)s of the transaction(s). Obviously, I cannot imagine how stupid should someone be to design their network in a way where an internet attack can knock off the non-internet enabled service provided by a bank. Alex
