Making Your Next Login Even More Secure

We’ve added extra security measures in Online and Mobile Banking. It’s called two-factor authentication, and it’s an easy update you’ll quickly appreciate.

What to Expect When You Login

You will be prompted to “Set Up Your App”

If you select “Secure My Account”, you will then have a choice of  2-Factor Authentication options

You can choose to receive a Two-Factor Authentication Code by

  • Text
  • Email
  • Authenticator App (TOTP)
    • An Authenticator App (TOTP) generates constantly changing, short-lived codes on your device to provide a strong second layer of security for your online accounts, working with your password for two-factor authentication (2FA). Authenticator Apps are more secure than SMS codes because they work offline and aren’t vulnerable to SIM-swapping attacks, using a shared secret and the current time to create codes that expire every 30-60 seconds.
      • Install the Authenticator on your mobile device before registering for TOTP. The following Authenticator Apps are available in the Google Play Store or the App Store

 

Google Authenticator App

 

 

Microsoft Authenticator App
