Overview

Firstrust Bank understands that the security of your personal and account information is important to you. We also understand that our continued success as a leading financial institution relies both on our ability to offer banking services to you in a secure manner and on your responsibility in keeping any access codes or passwords secure. To assist us in offering these web-based banking services in a secure manner, we employ a number of measures, which are described below. These measures allow us, among other benefits, to properly authenticate your identity when you access these services and to protect your information as it traverses the Internet between your PC and Firstrust Bank.

Many of the financial services to which we provide access on this website utilize access codes (e.g., ID and password). To further protect you, a timeout feature is often used. This feature will automatically log you out of your current financial service session after an extended period of inactivity on the site.

Encryption

Whenever you access pages requesting or presenting sensitive financial or personal data, we will encrypt that data to prevent others from accessing it while in transit. We utilize Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption for this purpose. Most browsers display a padlock icon when SSL is being used on a secure page. We require the use of 128-bit SSL encryption in order to protect sensitive information.

Browser Requirements

Because of our security standard, you must use a current version of a browser that support 128-bit SSL encryption to access secure information over the internet.  The link below provide additional information on evaluating your web browser security settings:

State-of-the-Art Internet Security

Online banking uses an added layer of security (multi-factor authentication) to further protect your accounts and personal information. All online banking users are required to register a phone number in order to receive a secure access code via voice or SMS text message before accessing online banking. Customers have the option to register their personal device to avoid multi-factor authentication during subsequent sessions. For security reasons you should never register a device you do not own (i.e. public computer or work computer). In some cases, Firstrust Bank may require a secure access token in place of secure access codes.
