Industry Spotlight: Banking

With 320,000 members and $3.3 billion in assets, Alaska USA Federal Credit Union dealt with increased losses due to phishing. Online activity peaks to equal that of the world's largest banks once a year when Alaska residents receive a $1000 credit from the oil industry tax. Through SafeLogin™, they've strengthened authentication, maintained customer satisfaction and handled drastic peaks in online activity.

Anti-Phishing

Although their methods have changed and evolved, thieves and con artists have always looked for "easy marks." Many Internet users fall into this category; they are visitors on your site, unaware of how the Internet works, and how their naïveté makes them vulnerable. Hackers don't try to break your defenses anymore: they deceive your users with modern phishing cons. And people are taking the bait.

  • Phishers reel people in by sending out bogus emails that compel visits to phony web sites where identity credentials are unwittingly shared.
  • Phishers also use viruses to plant malicious spyware on users' PCs, capturing key strokes when users visit legitimate sites.
  • Phishers then apply their ill-gotten information to steal identities and assets.

Tricerion has devised a remedy that disarms the phishing con at its source. With our patented SafeLogin system, users log in by clicking on a keypad that displays a unique set of images, a subset of which comprises the user's picture password. The keypad cannot be spoofed, and the password cannot be easily shared.

Your company and users are protected when you simply eliminate the tools of the con game, and disable your users from being playable in the first place.
