- Log out of all other online accounts, documents, and websites before you start your online banking.
- Make sure anti-virus and anti-spyware software is installed, active, and up to date.
- Avoid using public Wi-Fi and connect to the internet via a secure and encrypted connection.
- Clear the computer’s history, cookies, cache, and temporary files after finishing your online banking.
- Be mindful of what you are clicking on and never open or download email attachments.
