Online Banking Protection

In addition to the privacy and security measures in place to protect our Web site, we take extra precautions to protect our Online Banking users (see the Security & Confidentiality section within Online Banking for details).

Identity Theft Protection With Online Banking

Experts note that consumers checking their accounts online were likely to catch fraud and identity theft more quickly than those who rely on paper statements. Online Banking helped reduce their financial losses. Identity theft victim reports show that losses for consumers viewing paper statements alone totaled over $4,000, while the financial loss for online statement users totaled just over $500.
