Worry-Free Security

Great Western Bank remains dedicated to protecting your personal information and ensuring the security of your online bank account. We utilize some important security procedures to help you protect your personal and business financial information.

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).

• User ID and password are required for access.
• Change your password at any time to maintain security.
• Your password will expire periodically. At the time of expiration, you will need to create a new, unique password.
• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is used to prevent online fraud losses and credential theft due to cybercrime.
• 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.

HELPFUL TIP: Enable the Password Reset feature within your Online Banking account so you can reset your own password on your own time – even outside of normal bank hours! Once inside Online Banking, simply navigate to the Options page and then the Personal Settings tab. Ensure you have a valid email address in the address fields, and then complete the Password Reset Question and Password Reset Answer fields to enable the password reset feature.
