C Correct answer
Explanation

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and its successor TLS are the standard encryption protocols used for secure online banking transactions. SSL/TLS creates an encrypted channel between your browser and the bank's server, protecting sensitive data like passwords and account details during transmission. MD5 is a hash function, not encryption, and while AES is also used in cryptography, SSL is the protocol layer specifically used for netbanking security.
