Bankline security

Smartcards and smartcard readers give you an extra layer of security. The system is simple and extremely effective.

Smartcard authentication allows your team to control the movement of funds from your accounts - and alter the administration of those functions.

Each authorised user has their own smartcard, which is used in conjunction with a smartcard reader. Without the smartcard, the transaction or change can't be made.

Logging on to Bankline requires a combination of unique passwords, PINs and user IDs to access the services. You can even decide how often users must change their passwords.

This level of protection means that your information is kept private. It also means that users only have access to the functionality they are assigned to.

We recommend your organisation maintains anti-virus software on all computers, to ensure you are protected from new threats as they emerge.

Bankline will never ask users for a complete set of security details on any web page. We would also never send an email asking for these details or linking to a web page asking for such.

We have designed the technology behind Bankline to be as robust as possible.

The infrastructure is fully mirrored across two data centres. Should a component failure occur, a backup component would take over processing.

We also have a number of backup measures designed to protect the continuity of the Bankline service.
