- Create strong, unique passwords that combine letters, numbers, and special characters.

Regularly Monitor Your Account
Stay vigilant by regularly monitoring your bank accounts for any unauthorized transactions or suspicious activity. Set up alerts for unusual account activity to receive notifications immediately if any suspicious transactions occur and quickly notify your account officer or your Bank for immediate remedy.
Be Wary of Social Engineering Tactics
Cybercriminals may attempt to manipulate or deceive you through social engineering tactics, such as pretending to be a bank representative or a trusted individual. Always verify the identity of anyone requesting sensitive information or financial transactions, especially if it seems unusual or unexpected.
