Transport Layer Security (TLS)
Your online banking security is a priority for us. In order to provide the best in security, we need you to ensure that your preferred internet browser is updated and you are running it’s latest version. Your browser has a security protocol called Transport Layer Security (TLS). This protocol ensures that a connection to a remote endpoint is securely encrypted in order to provide privacy and data integrity. TLS is a key component of our security. TLS 1.2 is the most current version and is considered the most secure. It is important that you enable TLS 1.2.
On April 9, 2018, we will be disabling TLS 1.0 and 1.1 protocols, so if you are not running the most current version of your browser, your online banking will be disrupted. When you update your browser it will default to run TLS 1.2. Here is a compatibility chart.
