Worry-Free Security
You, and only you, can access your account information. Special high security measures, much like those for your ATM card, ensure total protection and privacy.
All Online Banking communications are scrambled through a powerful encryption technology called a “Secure Socket Layer” (SSL). SSL is the industry standard encryption, which helps ensure that no one can use the data you send and receive to access your account(s). Together with the secure firewalls that are in place, your transactions are as safe as if you were dealing face-to-face with a teller or personal banker.
- User ID and password are required for access.
- Change your password at any time to maintain security.
- A session timer tracks your access. If no activity is recorded from your computer after a pre-determined amount of time, your session will be terminated. Further access will require you to log in again.
- If the incorrect log-in information is entered three times in a row, online access to your account(s) will be denied until you contact the bank and your identity is confirmed.
- Account numbers are never used; only aliases are transmitted.
