FAQs

    • How secure is this service?

      This service employs the 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL), which is one of the strongest encryption technology most commonly used by large-scale online merchants, banks, and brokerages worldwide. For transaction level security, this service employs "Two-Factor Authentication" to verify customer identity. All online sessions between you and the bank are protected by up to 128-bit encryption, which best protects your information against disclosure to third parties.

    • What precautions should I take when using shared/public PCs for this service?

      We strongly recommend you not to conduct your Internet Banking transactions on such PCs unless you are sure that it is safe to do so. Please clear browser cache after each session so that your account information is removed from such PCs.

    • What are cookies and how are they used for this service?

      A cookie is information that a website puts on your hard disk that it can remember something about you at a later time. This mechanism allows the server to store its own information about a user on the user's own computer. We do not use cookies for this service.

    • What is encryption and how is it used to protect my information?

      Encryption is a method of scrambling your information to protect its transmission across the Internet. Encryption transforms data into an unreadable form, and decryption reverses that process. Both encryption and decryption require the use of a special code, usually referred to as 'encryption key'. The encryption of data provides a strong degree of protection against tampering while data is moving through the Internet.
