Lake Area Bank provides Internet banking (E-Banking) access through ITI E-banking Services. ITI requires all of its divisions and companies to take proactive steps to ensure that the systems they own or participate in contain adequate information and the potential for fraud-related losses. The Internet Banking Service Bureau runs on a robust Windows NT operating system. State of the art firewall technology is the first line of defense in preventing unauthorized access to any information housed.
Included in this operating system is the capacity to allow only secure connections by end users. Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology encrypts all transmissions of web pages between the bank and its customers and renders unreadable customer information to any person or group trying to "intercept" the transmission. SSL encryption is the industry standard and is commonly used in Internet applications that require security and privacy for sensitive data.
Before you can access the Internet Banking Service Bureau solution, you are required to enter your user ID and password. Without the proper login, you cannot see or use any web pages within the E-Banking product.
For security reasons, complete account number(s) will not appear on the computer screen. When the account number needs to be displayed it appears as ###123456 instead of 123456789. The Bank has the flexibility to determine how many digits are "unmasked" and the masking will always occur from the left. Account "Aliases" are user defined titles for your account(s) (i.e., "My Checking") and are used when displaying account information on the screen.
When you access your account information online, your connection is automatically converted into a secure Internet communications session.
When you access your account information or any other sensitive data, an encryption system is automatically activated to protect the transmission of information from unauthorized sources.
