If the system detects an unusual pattern with your login, you will be prompted to answer one of your Security Questions. You must answer this question correctly before being allowed to continue logging in to your online or mobile banking account.

• Secure Sessions: To prevent unauthorized access to your online or mobile banking accounts when you're not using your computer or mobile device, your online or mobile banking session automatically signs off after 10 minutes. It is best to sign-off or close your browser after completing your online or mobile banking session.

How to Protect Yourself:

Mobile Device Precautions

No mobile or online banking platform or wireless data transmission system can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure and invulnerable to breach or compromise. However, following these tips can mitigate risk and help protect you against fraudulent activity.

• Understand today’s reality. Mobile devices are essentially small computers that need to be secured like a PC or laptop.
• Keep it safe. Maintaining physical control of your device is the first way to prevent abuse.
• Keep it updated. Set your device to install app and system updates automatically if possible. These updates often include security fixes.
• Use your security features. Use a passcode or PIN to help protect your device. Enable remote wipe and location features to help ensure that your personal information is protected if your device is lost or stolen.
• Beware of malicious applications. Use banks’ dedicated apps for secure financial transactions and download apps only from trusted sources like the Apple® App Store or Google® Play.
• Avoid links from unknown sources. Don't click a link from sources you don't trust, including emails and social media posts. Malicious links could direct you to websites or install applications that compromise your device.
• Use trusted networks. Connecting your device to unknown wireless networks can expose your data. Avoid accessing sensitive information, like banking, if using an unsecured or unknown network. If possible, switch to your cellular data plan for banking and then back to wireless when complete.
• Turn off unnecessary services. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, location apps, NFC (near field communication) apps and other connection abilities can be disabled to protect your device when you're not using them.
• Avoid putting your device at increased risk. Gaining system level access known as "rooting" for Android™ and "jailbreaking" for Apple®, may provide access to untrusted software or apps not intended for your device that can expose you to greater security risks.
• Encrypt your data. If your mobile device supports it, use encryption to help protect sensitive information.
• Be cautious granting elevated privileges. When installing applications or external accessories, always inspect the permissions. They will tell you what access the apps/accessories need to function and will also tell you if the application is asking for more permissions than needed.
• Clear data from your smartphone frequently. With Text Banking your phone will only store the information provided via text message, including your account nicknames, account balances and transaction history. As an extra measure of caution, you can delete the text messages when they are no longer needed.
