Is Maybank2u.com.sg safe and secure? How safe is my
account information sent through Maybank2u.com.sg? |
|
At Maybank,
we are committed to protecting our customers' information
by employing the most secured encryption technology
(128-bit Secure Sockets Layer or SSL) to safeguard all
your information and transactions transmitted over the
Internet.
SSL encryption
will scramble all data between Maybank and your PC using
a security key. Only Maybank has this key to reassemble
back the data. Any other party trying to break this
key will be faced with 200 trillion possible combinations.
In addition
to SSL encryption, we also authenticate your unique
Access ID and PIN upon logon. Both are needed together
for access to your account information. We have also
included a security feature that automatically terminates
your Maybank Internet Banking session after a period
of inactivity.
