“Firewall” is a network security system that controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an applied rule set. A firewall typically establishes a barrier between a trusted, secure internal network and another network (e.g., the Internet) that is assumed not to be secure and trusted

C. Browser Security

Bank of Bridger NA Internet Banking transmits data using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology that supports 256 bit key encryption. It is important to verify that a secure connection between your bank and the Internet Banking server has been established before transmitting any confidential account information over the Internet. An indicator in the upper left corner of the screen can verify this. Microsoft Internet Explorer has a lock symbol that appears when data is being encrypted. This lock and the browser message will appear green.  When this symbol does not appear, a session is not secure.

D. Host Security

Bank of Bridger NA web server does not connect directly to the Internet. It is buffered from the Internet through the use of firewall. All access from outside the bank must go through this firewall, which screens the requests and allows only valid https traffic to reach the server. Bank of Bridger NA Internet Banking makes use of an ICSA-certified firewall.

E. Hours of Operation

Business days for Bank of Bridger NA are Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. You may access the Service 24 hours a day, seven days a week, except that Bank of Bridger NA cannot guarantee that the Service will always be available during these times.

In addition, access to the Service is made available pursuant to a license agreement by and between Bank of Bridger NA and Fiserv Inc. Any interruption of service or access caused by the Service Provider will also prevent you use of the Service or performance of the Service.

F. Secure Access to Site

Bank of Bridger NA believes the safety and security of its customers’ accounts and account information is important. To ensure protection of your Accounts, you must access the Service via a personal computer with your Access ID and Password. You will choose your Access ID and Password during your initial enrollment after answering at least four out of five “out of wallet” questions correctly.  Failure to answer at least four our of the five “out of wallet” questions will require you to contact the Bank to complete your enrollment.  Your Access ID must be 6 to 17 character, numbers, or a combination of both.  If the future you would like to change the Access ID, you will be required to contact the Bank.  You may change your Password from time to time, as provided in the software.  We recommend that you not use your social security number, birth date, name or other code that may be easy for others to determine as your Password. YOU AGREE TO KEEP YOUR PASSWORD CONFIDENTIAL.

Thus, we urge you to maintain the safety and security of your Access ID and Password.

For example, that person may view any information or initiate any transaction on any of your Accounts to which that person does not otherwise have access. We encourage you not to share your Access ID and Password with other parties. You agree to assume responsibility for all transactions initiated through the Service with your Access ID and Password, up to the limits allowed by applicable law.
