By following our tips, Online Banking can be a safe and efficient
method for handling your banking needs.
User Identification and Password
Security starts at your computer. Never share your login ID or
password with anyone. Make sure your password is hard to guess
by combining random numbers and letters instead of using your birth
date, pet’s name or other obvious clues.
Secure Sockets Layer Encryption (SSL)
This technology scrambles data as it travels between your computer
and your financial institution, making it difficult for anyone to access
your account information. SSL is a trusted method of securing internet
transactions.
Browser Registration
In addition to your personal password security, your financial institution
has added additional security measures with Browser Registration.
Although these security enhancements are benefiting you and your
security, you probably will not notice them during your regular day-to-
day experience.
