Please review the following tips to help keep your financial information secure. Passwords The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recommends that passwords should be “easy to remember” but “hard to guess.” NIST guidance recommends the following for passwords: An eight character minimum and 64 character maximum length Use a special characters (but not a requirement) Do not use sequential and repetitive characters (e.g. 12345 or aaaaaa) Do not use context specific passwords (e.g. the name of the site, etc.) Do not use commonly used passwords (e.g. p@ssw0rd, etc.) Do not reuse previously breeched passwords Click here to read the full guidelines. Online Banking Remember to log off after viewing your bank account activity online. Do not register a computer for repeated use if you are using a public computer or someone else’s computer to access online banking or other websites that contain sensitive or personal information. PIN Keep your debit card PIN confidential. If you have shared your PIN for any reason, stop by your local branch and have your PIN changed. When using your debit card, select credit when possible. This lessens the chances of someone tracking your PIN and accessing your financial information, and it enables consumer protections provided by Regulation E. General Account Information Never provide your full account number or social security number over the phone. If you see suspicious activity on your account contact the bank right away.
