So startups are smaller and so likely to have less resources to apply to cyber attacks?

What about incumbent bank's brittle infrastructure? When there is a breach or failure banks often have to close down their network while they patch things up.

I think less of the FUD from Payments UK and more acceptance that startups can improve security.
