A security system for notifying users in real time of financial transactions executed, having a software platform including a data server, a domain name server, and communications program is provided. The system directly connects users (11) to the database (15) that records their transactions. It transfers the transaction information of recently executed transactions from the database of the financial institution to the Web (19), Internet Service Provider (19), cellular provider (18), paging service (20) etc. of the user. For example, the transaction information from an executed transaction (12) may be sent in real time to the user's email, pager, PDA or cellular phone or any other Internet enabled device chosen by the user. In this way, the user is able to monitor actual usage of his or her financial tools such as credit cards, checks and money transfers and may respond to unauthorized or incorrect usage within minutes or even seconds.
