Internet
Banking Security
Alliance National Bank
works with cutting edge technology to ensure that the most
secure environment is made possible for our valued customers.
You can be completely confident of the following security
measures:
Secure Communications
Secure browsers such as Microsoft's
Internet Explorer or Netscape
Navigator are required to access your information. Only
browsers with 128-bit encryption technology, the strongest
encryption
available, are supported. Encryption is accomplished through
Secure Sockets Layers (SSL)
which utilize mathematical formulas to "encrypt"
or hide information from prying eyes on the Internet. Additionally,
if SSL detects that data was added or deleted after you sent
it to the bank, the connection will be severed in order to
guard against any tampering.
Secure Environment
Firewalls
are used to protect the information on our Internet banking
site. A firewall is a combination of software and hardware
products that designate parameter control and limit the access
that outside computers have to internal networks and databases.
Secure Login
No one can access your information on line without your user
ID and password. The online banking system checks for invalid
logins and automatically disallows a user after three invalid
attempts. You can protect your account information by logging
off of your computer when you have completed your transaction.
If you forget to log off, our online banking system will disconnect
you after a certain period of inactivity.
Your Password
You will be responsible for maintaining one of the most important
security measures, your password. Your online banking password
should always be kept a secret. Memorize it, or write it down
and keep it in a safe place. It is not recommended you carry
your password in your purse or wallet. Make sure no one watches
you enter your password and always close your browser when
leaving the computer. Make sure you regularly scan your computer
for viruses that could be used to capture password keystrokes.
You ultimately hold the key to your password security.
