Online Security What can I do to remain secure while using online banking? By following our tips, Online Banking can be a safe and efficient method for handling your banking needs. User Identification and Password: Security starts at your computer. Never share your login ID or password with anyone. Make sure your password is easy to remember but hard to guess. Try to avoid using common passwords such as birth dates, pet s name, or other obvious clues. Secure Sockets Layer Encryption (SSL): This technology scrambles data as it travels between your computer and the credit union, making it difficult for anyone to access your account information. SSL is a trusted method for securing internet transactions. Browser Registration: In addition to your personal password security, we have additional security measures with Browser Registration. By registering your browser, you will strengthen the safeguards in place at login by additional steps to verify your identity. Although these security enhancements are benefiting you and your

Please read the content located under the Security Tab for additional information on how to make yourself more secure online.
