Our Commitment to Security

Your safety and security is at the core of all we do.

Our dedicated information security, technology and communications professionals are constantly re-evaluating our security measures to address evolving Internet and computer security threats.

Our environment
Our network and data centers are protected by multiple layers of physical, procedural and technical controls. We continuously monitor activity to ensure systems are secure from unauthorized entry attempts.

Individualized password
When you sign up for online access, we ask you to create your own password, along with a logon id, to access your accounts. This information is encrypted during transmission and will remain a secret as long as you do not disclose it.

Timed log-off
Our system will automatically log you off from Online Banking and BillPay after 15 minutes of inactivity. This reduces the risk of others accessing information from your unattended computer.

Secure communications
Your connection to our online products is secured with 128-bit SSL encryption, the industry standard for secure communications on the Internet. SSL encrypts your data connection and protects it from unauthorized viewing or use and provides trusted third party verification that you have connected directly with Old National.

To help protect your money and personal data against any type of intruder or attack, our online applications also use a system of filtering routers and firewalls, which form a barrier between the Internet and the internal bank network.

Strong encryption
Everything that travels through the Internet during your online session—from your password to the information used to create an ACH batch—becomes a string of unrecognizable numbers before entering the Internet. Both Old National computers and the browser you use understand the mathematical formulas, called algorithms, which serve as door-locks on your account information.

Old National and your computer can easily translate this code back to meaningful language, but this process would be a daunting, virtually impossible task for unauthorized intruders. That's because there are billions of possible keys that could potentially solve such a formula, however only one will work. Every time you begin an Online Banking session, your computer and the Old National systems agree on a random number that serves as the key for the rest of the conversation. What that random number is depends largely on the strength of the encryption used by your browser.

Browsers play a vital role in encryption, so Old National tests browsers to make sure they provide the encryption level required for Online Banking needs. To conduct banking sessions within our servers, Old National either enables your browser with 128-bit encryption or, in certain instances, requires you to upgrade.

The reason we require the use of a 128-bit encrypted browser is simple -- we want to protect the integrity and security of your information. Many browsers are 40-bit encrypted. The difference between 40-bit encryption and the 128-bit encryption Old National requires is a matter of degrees. Software that uses 128-bit encryption is roughly 300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times more protective than 40-bit encryption.
