The security of financial information is a common concern with banking and commerce on the Internet. Our success as a financial institution depends on our ability to manage the security of our systems to continue to earn your trust as our customer. Please be assured that we will go to every measure possible to protect the financial information and resources you have entrusted to us. As a member of Verisign Security National Bank of Omaha is provided with a Server ID, or digital certificate, which allows your browser to instantly verify Security National Bank of Omaha's site and to encrypt transactions.
Security National Bank uses several different methods to make internet banking as secure as it is convenient. We require security information that is only known to you during the enrollment process.
For your protection, so that we may validate your confidential account information, an individual Access ID will be utilized. You will select your own Access ID and password during the enrollment process.
Also, for your protection, your on-line account will be disabled should you exceed the permitted number of Access attempts.
Your password will be authenticated during the Access process. You can help safeguard your account information by protecting your password and Access ID. Do not share your password or Access ID with anyone. You may change your password as often as you would like. However, for security purposes we recommend that you change your password at least every 90 days. Do not use birthdays, phone numbers or names that might be easy for others to determine.
For additional security, your on-line banking session will be terminated should there be an extended time of inactivity. This will prevent anyone from using your computer should you step away from your desk or office. Once logged off, you may simply re-authenticate yourself by entering your password and Access ID at the Access page.
Security National Bank will never need to know your password and you should never furnish it to anyone claiming to represent Security National Bank. If anyone calls and requests this information, do not comply and contact us immediately.
Security National Bank has an approved list of browsers based on their accommodations of specific security requirements. Netscape Communications developed a Secured Socket Layer (SSL) to ensure private and authenticated communications. Your on-line banking session will utilize the SSL to secure your transaction from the browser and web server. Once a secured session is established, the data cannot be monitored by other users on the Internet.
Your password, as well as all information relating to your account(s) and your enrollment, is scrambled using some of the strongest forms of encryption commercially available for use over the World Wide Web. Encryption is the actual turning of words and numbers in a coded language that can only be read by you and the bank.
Our computer system does not connect directly to the Internet. It is isolated from the Internet network via routers, filters and a "firewall." A firewall is a device that controls the access that computers on the Internet have to the bank's computers. This firewall adheres to the standards set forth by the National Computer Security Association (NCSA). Use of this firewall allows only valid http traffic to reach the web server.
Our provider is constantly reviewing the latest software and hardware technology to provide the best defense possible against intrusion.
