C Correct answer
Explanation

Online banking systems use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) or its successor TLS to encrypt communication between your browser and the bank's servers. This prevents attackers from intercepting sensitive information like passwords and account details. MD5 and MD5-RSA are hash algorithms, not encryption techniques. AES is a symmetric encryption algorithm but not the primary method used for secure web connections.
