Big Sky's System
|
Protecting Big Sky's computer systems is critical. We have implemented leading firewall technology to protect our own computer systems and Members' information against intrusion from the Internet. A Firewall controls what information passes between our systems and the Internet.
These systems are monitored for suspicious activity by a major security consultancy group who has considerable experience implementing and designing secure systems for many organisations, including financial institutions.
|
The Internet
|
The Internet is a worldwide network of computers, owned and operated by many different organisations and individuals, and unfortunately, subject to little regulation, legislation or security. Our aim is to protect any sensitive information passed through the Internet between Big Sky and your computer. We employ a technology called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to establish a secure connection between your browser and the Big Sky Internet Banking System. SSL is a technology developed by Netscape, Microsoft and RSA Inc that is supported by most browsers. Every time you connect to Internet Banking it sends your browser a piece of information called a "digital certificate". This certificate securely identifies the site you are connecting to, and establishes a 128-bit encrypted session. This certificate has been digitally signed by Verisign - the highest recognised issuer of digital certificates in the world. Most browsers automatically recognise any certificate signed by Verisign.

Your Computer
|
There are some simple precautions you can take to maximise security.
|
- Always 'LOGOUT' of the secure session after completing online transactions using Internet Banking
|
- Never leave your computer unattended while logged onto Internet Banking
|
- For further protection, the Internet Banking system has been set to automatically "logout" after 10 minutes if the banking session remains unattended
|
- If other people can access your computer you should set your browser not to cache secure web pages, so that there will be no record of your account information left on your computer
|
- Ensure that current anti-virus software is running on your computer at all times
|
|
Your Password (or Access Code)
|
To control access to your accounts, you will need to use both a Member Number and password. Since the password is important in protecting the security of your information, set out below are a few tips to be mindful of when choosing and using your password.
|
- Change your Password Code regularly. We recommend that you change it at least every month
|
- Try not to use date of birth, telephone number, addresses, repeat digits or simple sequences
|
- Use a combination of letters and numbers for your password
|
- Do not disclose your Password to anyone
