reCAPTCHA
A reCAPTCHA system is designed to establish that a computer user is human and not a robot. You may be presented with a series of pictures that you will need to identify to gain access to your online banking account.
We turn it on during times where there is the potential for increased cyber fraud for our members as it provides a deeper layer of protection against Brute Force attacks. Brute Force attacks are when cybercriminals use automated tools to attempt a range of passwords and user names to gain unauthorized access.
