Online Banking Safety Tips

With online banking becoming more popular and practical, safety should be a key issue between you and the bank you do business with. It is important to make sure that your bank has taken the measures to ensure that your financial and personal information is being protected from identity thieves.

Here are two tips to ensure Online Banking Safety:
  • Browser Security - Security begins with your web browser. You can protect yourself online by using an up-to-date browser with the most recent security updates.
  • Encryption - Your bank should be using an encryption system and Transport Layer Security (TLS) to ensure your online banking safety. TLS is an advanced technology used to scramble your personal banking information and keep it out of the hands of identity thieves.
