Tips on Staying Safe While Conducting Your Banking Online

Set a strong password for your internet banking account

Prior to setting up your internet banking password, ensure that you come up with a strong password that only you can remember. A strong password ideally has at least 14 characters or more – essentially the more the better. The password must be made up of letters, numbers, punctuations (if possible) as well as other symbols. Make use of capital and small letters to enhance the complexity of your password. Avoid dictionary words, names written backwards, repeated sequences and passwords derived from personal items such as your driving license or identity card.
