Q How can you guarantee the security of my banking information?
A

First, we use 128-bit encryption, the highest form of encryption currently available, to secure your Online Banking sessions. Whenever you see the padlock symbol in your browser, you know this security feature is active. Other security tools are in place to ensure the integrity of your data, including firewalls and filtering routers that secure computers from Internet access and a "trusted" operating system, which protects information from both internal and external threats. Also our merchant services provider also has secure encryption for all transactions.

For additional security, customers select their own Personal Identification Number. PIN guessing is deterred by locking the ID out of the system following three unsuccessful logon attempts. These are just a few of the many security tools we use. These layers of security work together to make sure that all information transmitted between you and Lake Sunapee Bank and its The Nashua Bank division is both secure and authentic.
