Our security measures

We employ the most sophisticated technologies and best practices available to make sure your sensitive information and accounts are well protected online, over the phone, and in person.

Protecting your digital interactions

Strong username and password requirements
We prompt you to create a unique username and password when you first access your account. Learn more about updating your password

Extra login security using multi–factor authentication (MFA)
To keep your accounts safer, we offer MFA as an extra layer of security that can be added to your account to restrict someone from logging in — even if they have access to your username and password. Find out more about MFA and how it works

Protecting you at our offices

Customer verification, restricted customer data access, and fraud detection
No matter where you visit us, we always verify your identity before allowing access to your accounts. Employees only see your data on a "need-to-know" basis, and we monitor all transactions for suspicious or unusual behavior. For your health safety, we also offer contactless verification options.

Security at our branches and offices
We vigilantly monitor all work areas in order to prevent theft or unauthorized use of your sensitive information. In addition, authorized personnel can only enter work areas through use of a security badge.

Employee education
We make sure that our employees know and adhere to our security policies. We require periodic training for all personnel, and those who work directly with customers receive extra training on the latest methods used by criminals to perpetrate identity theft.
