To keep your online banking accounts secure, it's important to create strong passwords and maintain good account hygiene. You should also make sure your password is not easily guessable, such as a pet's name or anniversary date. Additionally, use multifactor authentication whenever possible and enable auto-login timers in order to protect against unauthorized access. Also be wary of emails requesting personal information as they may be fake.

It is essential to have multi-factor authentication for your online banking accounts. This includes setting up a secure and unique password, a security question and answer combination, an alternate email address or phone number, 2-Step Verification or Google Authenticator, biometric validation such as fingerprints or facial recognition if available. It is also important to make sure that the computer you use to access your online banking accounts is fully protected with a reliable anti-malware/anti-virus software. Additionally, never respond to any emails requesting sensitive information about your account.
