How Community Banks Keep Your Data Private 

Banking is easier than ever these days with the convenience of online and mobile banking. With that comes the risk of your data being compromised as cybercriminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated. This is why banks, like ours, invest heavily in robust security measures and systems to keep this from happening to our customers. 

From multi-factor authentication (MFA) to real-time fraud detection, you need reliable resources to help protect your assets.  

What You Can Do to Protect Your Data 

Even with every guardrail in place by financial institutions, users must also do what they can to keep their information safe. You can do this by using strong passwords, avoiding suspicious links, and staying informed of the latest fraud threats – we post to our blog on this topic regularly. 

What Banks Will Not Ask For 

One of the biggest things that consumers need to know is what banks and other financial institutions won’t ask for. Banks will never ask for your PIN, your debit cards CVC code, your online banking credentials, or security code you get when logging into online banking. 

Remember, the key to keeping your data safe and sound is to remain vigilant with security practices in today’s digital world.
