Online and Offline Security

Online Offline Security

Whenever you're visiting our online site, rest assured we’ve got your back.

Encrypted online banking

Your accounts can be accessed over a 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology using a browser that supports 128-bit encryption so that the communication cannot be intercepted by anyone over the internet.

Virtual keyboard

Our online banking system provides you a virtual keyboard on the login page to protect your account details against key-logging programs.

Unsuccessful login attempts

Your access to the account will be disabled after successive invalid password attempts, helping us protect your account from password attack mechanisms.

Session timeout

Our systems automatically time out the customer's login sessions after a period of time to protect against misuse. The account can be accessed again only by providing the login details in the default login page.

Firewalls

Our banking systems are secured using state-of-the-art security solutions such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, intrusion prevention systems and anti-malware systems.

Monitoring

We have robust processes, skilled people and competent service providers who monitor the security of our systems round the clock. We have also implemented additional security form factors like Two Factor Authentication or One Time Password (OTP) for authentication purposes.
