Security Hints for You

  • Protect personal information. Never share user IDs, passwords, or other sensitive information. Change your password regularly.
  • Anti-virus. To reduce the risk of lost information or damage due to computer viruses, make sure your computer has anti-virus software installed. Updates should be made periodically to provide protection against new viruses.
  • Personal Firewalls. With the increasing popularity of DSL and high-speed cable modems, users should take care as the connection to the internet may be active anytime your computer is on. Personal firewalls can prevent unauthorized users and networks from accessing your computer.
  • Updated Browser. Keep your browser current for optimal transaction security.
