VIII. ALL ABOUT SECURITY [go back]
What type of Internet security do you provide your customers?
Using
the current security technologies and processes, BDO assures its
clients of the confidentiality and privacy of their online banking
sessions. BDO Internet Banking security uses:
| • |
Authentication - Authentication ensures that only authorized users can access the BDO Internet Banking system by verifying the identity of the user. This is enforced through the use of a User Name and Password. | |
| • |
Network Security – BDO uses a firewall to protect its Internet banking servers from unauthorized Internet access. A firewall is a combination of systems that enforces a boundary between the Internet and the bank's network, while blocking out all unwanted access. | |
| • |
Encryption - Encryption converts data on the system to a format that is unreadable by anyone who does not have the proper authorization. Currently, BDO Internet Banking uses 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to secure all banking transactions. 128-bit encryption means that there are 2128 - or 3.4 with 38 zeros after it - possible combinations that could access your account information but only one that works for each online banking session. | |
| • |
Automatic Log-out - BDO Internet Banking automatically logs you out of the system if it detects no user activity for a fixed number of minutes. This protects your accounts from being accessed by the next PC user, especially when using a public or shared computer. | |
| • | Password strength – an on-screen meter that indicates the strength of your nominated password. |
What
precautions should I take to ensure the confidentiality of my
accounts and personal information when using BDO Internet Banking
• |
Never Keep your password safe. Your password authenticates you when you begin your Internet banking session. You should memorize your password and avoid writing it down. disclose your password to anyone, even to someone claiming to be from BDO. BDO will never ask for your Password/PIN. Be responsible in keeping your password confidential. | |
| • |
Keep your password safe. Your password authenticates you when you begin your Internet banking session. You should memorize your password and avoid writing it down. | |
| • |
Create/nominate password that is difficult to guess but easy to remember. Avoid using birthdates and other personal information easily associated with you. | |
| • | Change your password regularly. You can easily change your password when you begin your Internet Banking session. | |
| • |
Remember to log out before you leave your computer. Logging out assures you that no one can access your accounts after you have finished your Internet Banking session. This is very important when you are using a shared or public computer. | |
| • |
Keep your operating system and browser software updated with patches for the latest security vulnerabilities. Many viruses, trojans and spyware exploit the vulnerabilities of software to steal information. | |
| • |
Use your browser's security features. Most browsers have security settings and options that protect the privacy of your accounts. Refer to your browser's help on how you can maximize your browser's security. | |
| • |
Avoid using shared or public computers to access your accounts. Shared or public computers may have been installed with tracking software that could monitor your Internet Banking sessions. | |
| • |
Avoid using Beta-browsers. Beta-browsers are browsers still in the process of testing and may contain security vulnerabilities. We suggest the use of the browser's final release versions. | |
What
should I do in case I suspect a Password breach or unauthorized
transactions on my accounts
