Online Banking Improves Security
Effective May 7, 2018, our Online Banking will be improving its security. To do this, we will be using Transport Layer Security (TLS) v1.2 to ensure the platform is secure, encrypted and safe from attacks.
For many of you, you will not have to do anything to take advantage of this additional security. Your operating system and browser will automatically be compatible and make the update for you.
If you are using an older operating system, such as Microsoft XP, Microsoft Vista or Microsoft Windows Server 2008 or older, our Online Banking service will not work. This is because these systems do not have the security necessary to protect your data properly anymore.
If you are having issues using our Online Banking on or after May 7,
- Go into your browser Internet Options
- Click “Advanced”
- Click the box next to “Use TLS 1.2” under “Security” if it is not already enabled.
- Click “Apply”
- Click “OK”
- Restart your computer
You can also call the bank, and we would be happy to walk you through the process.
You can verify that this button is checked prior to May 7 as well so that your Online Banking will be ready for the update.
