Security and FAQ

SECURITY

In a world where services are increasingly becoming digitised there is a need to create mechanisms via which people can be recognised effectively and unequivocally. Hence the creation of a digital identity.

Digital identity. A set of elements that identify a person to whom an online service is provided. These could be elements chosen by the user or assigned by the service operator that constitute the access and authorisation codes for online features.

It is very important to protect your digital identity to prevent computer fraud.

Computer fraud. This is the use of someone’s personal data, usually stolen by digital identity theft, to perform illegal acts in their name.

Those who wish to engage in fraud may try to steal someone’s digital identity by several means. Two of the most cunning are phishing and malware.

Phishing. This is the sending of a communication via email, very similar in the graphics to those sent by the bank which states that you need to amend your banking situation or enter missing information. To do this, you have to click a link that leads to a copy of the web page where you are asked to enter your login credentials and/or other sensitive customer information.

Malware. Malware includes malware software (viruses/worms) installed on a device (PC or mobile) without the user’s knowledge. Such software is used by criminals with the intention of: altering the behaviour of the device (virus), disrupting operations carried out, stealing sensitive information (spyware), showing unwanted advertising (adware), causing sabotage to a computer system (trojan horses), or finally encrypting the data on the victim’s computer, then extorting money for decryption (ransomware).

 

OUR INTERNET BANKING

The Internet Banking website of CA Indosuez Wealth (Italy) S.p.A. has been built according to the latest security standards.

Logins occur in protected mode according to the protocol TLS 1.2. When browsing the website, you can check its trustworthiness by means of three signals in the address bar:

  • The presence of a closed padlock that indicates the secure connection.
  • The address prefix https://
  • The green colour of the address bar indicates the presence of a trusted site certificate. In correspondence with the padlock symbol, the name of the competent authority is displayed (the Bank) by clicking on this it also displays all the information concerning the certificate and the institution that issued it.

Logging in and operations on the website take place using the following codes:

USER CODE: issued when activating the service.

PASSWORD: together with the user code, it enables you to access the website. You will need to change it if you are logging in for the first time, or responding to a request to recover access codes.

PIN: used to change your password.

OTP: numerical code that the customer receives by text and that allows you to use the system’s features (One-Time Password)

To guarantee security, remember to keep your codes safe and in different places and regularly change your login password, which in any case has a maximum validity of 90 days, after which you will be prompted to change your password when you first log in.

The session on the website will expire after a period of inactivity of 5 minutes. Remember to log out as soon as you have finished using the Bank’s website.

 

 

OTHER PRECAUTIONS

If you receive an email which seems to be from the bank but the sender of the email does not belong to the bank’s domain (@ca-indosuez.it) or the email contains links whose destination is not a certified authority (none of the conditions described above in the paragraph relating to secure connections met) and, in any case, does not belong to the bank’s domain it is very likely to be a phishing incident.

The bank will never ask for confidential information and/or access codes via email. If need be, you will be contacted directly by the bank by the reference Relationship Manager or other staff.

So delete any communications from unknown senders or those with suspicious content. If you think there may be a case of phishing, forward the email to the competent authorities and to the bank so that further measures can be taken.

Do not click on the link directly from the email, but type the Bank’s address in the browser (https://www.ca-indosuez.com).

Do not open attachments in suspicious emails or messages.

For clarification, always contact your Relationship Manager, go into your local branch office or write an email to the address internetbanking-helpdesk@ca-indosuez.it.

Regularly update the programs and the operating system installed on your device, in particular your browser and security software (antivirus and antispyware).

Do not leave your devices unlocked and unattended, do not store access codes in the browser and remember to change your password regularly.
