Precautions for emails
Online identity fraud also known as Phishing occurs when fraudsters pose as trusted organisations and send out emails to thousands of random email addresses, tricking you into downloading a virus or logging on to a fraudulent web site and disclosing sensitive information. To protect yourself against such fraud.
Do not respond to e-mail from anyone that asks for your personal information such as password, credit card details, account number, etc....
If you receive such a request, refrain from replying and contact the bank immediately
When contacting the bank, only do so through the Message to Bank function that is available in Commercial Bank Online
Do not click on hyperlinks embedded in emails or third party websites to access the Commercial Bank Online website
Be cautious on the phone. It’s easy for someone to pretend to be someone they’re not on the phone. Whether it’s someone who wants personal information on a particular customer, or someone who claims they need to verify one of your personal accounts, don’t give out information over the phone unless you can positively confirm the caller’s identity
Limit access to your computers
Your computer network needs to be password protected, of course, so that anyone who wanders through your office can’t just access your network. But you also need to consider issues of internal network access. Does every employee need to be able to access programs or databases that may contain sensitive information? Password protect these, too, and grant access on a need to know basis to help cut down identity theft.
Disconnect ex employees immediately
When employees no longer work for your business, you need to be sure that their access to your computer network and company data is cut off immediately
