Introduction to Multifactor Authentication -
What is Multifactor Authentication?
Multifactor Authentication (MFA) is a form of security structured by;
What you know?
What you have?
Who you are?
What you do?
Where you are?
You are using multifactor authentication in your daily life when you use an ATM and access your Internet Banking account.
ATM: What you have? - ATM Card and What you know? - PIN number
Internet Banking: What you know? - Access ID and What you know? - Password.
We are adding a step to the Internet Banking identification process; What you have? - Your Computer.
We now have a security application we have chosen to provide MFA for all of our personal and business Internet Banking accounts. With this security application there will be a 'cookie' and small Flash object installed on all of your
Registered computers. These objects will be used to identify your computer as being a known valid computer used to log into your Internet Banking account. When you log into Internet Banking you will also be able to verify that the site you are on is legitimate and is not a Phishing or illegally owned website.
Why are we now using Multifactor Authentication?
The
FDIC is requiring every bank by the End of Year 2006 to implement a risk managed system to further protect customer information. With the growing online, telephone and email security issues including Identity Theft and
Phishing, incorporating multifactor authentication is imperative!!
What will I have to do?
- You will first enter your Access ID... then Password
- You will then Enroll into Multifactor Authentication to establish an MFA record on our server.
***If you are a new Internet Banking user, you will Enroll into Multifactor Authentication on your second login attempt. This is done so you can initially build a valid Caller Record for Internet Banking.
- You must enter a valid email address; if not already established.
- Next an Image is assigned to you; which you can change later.
- You will need to enter a PassPhrase relative to the Image.
- There will then be three Challenge Questions. You must choose and enter an answer for each.
- Lastly you will be asked to choose if the computer is Personal or Public.
- From this point on, depending on which computer you use, you will have to verify an Image and PassPhrase to verify the site is legitimate and enter your Password to verify yourself. If you have chosen that the computer you are attempting to login on is a public computer, or you haven't used the current computer before to login to Internet Banking, you will be prompted to choose either; Email One Time Passcode or Answer a Challenge Question.
NOTE: It is important to only register computers that are Personal; i.e. a home computer or a computer that you exclusively use at work. If you or another user on any computer you choose as Personal deletes the 'cookies' from your Internet Properties, you will have to correctly answer a Challenge question and re-Register that computer. You may Register more than one computer as a Personal computer.
