Home National Bank's Online Banking system uses industry-standard
technology including password-controlled entry, Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) protocol, data encryption, public-private key pair,
firewalls and filtering routers. Each security component acts as
a layer of protection to safeguard sensitive data from unauthorized
users.
This system requires customer identification through a private login ID and
PIN before you can get into the front-end of the system. You should keep
this login ID and PIN absolutely private.
Once you have logged on correctly, you will enter a secure environment in which
you can conduct your transactions. The browser automatically secures the
session using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. With SSL, data that travels
between the bank and customer is encrypted and can only be decrypted with
what is called the public and private key pair. As Netscape, the developers
of the technology, put it, "Data that is encrypted with the public key
can be decrypted only with the private key. Conversely, data encrypted with
the private key can be decrypted only with the public key. This asymmetry
is the property that makes public key cryptography so useful" (taken
from home.netscape.com/assist/security/ssl/howitworks.htm).
Finally, once requests arrive at the data center, the server is protected by
a series of firewalls and routers which verify the source and destination
of the requests traveling in information packets. The firewall is set up
to reject any unauthorized traffic. This reemphasizes the importance of the
PIN, which is the only legitimate entry into the program. The firewall "opens
holes only when necessary and closes them back down as soon as useful work
is completed". The purpose of the router is to keep out traffic that
does not emanate from one of the only two legitimate ends of a secured transaction:
the customer or the bank.
You can help us keep your information secure by protecting your Online Banking
Login ID and PIN.
