The members of Vermont’s Northern Lights Federal Credit Union will have added browser security due to the credit union’s implementation of IronKey’s Trusted Access for Banking, a secure browsing solution designed to prevent identity theft, payments fraud and online banking account takeover.

Trusted Access for Banking provides a secure online banking experience through a dedicated, isolated secure browser environment. It also features Trusted Bookmarks, a safe Web browsing service. With this feature, Northern Lights can manage a “white list” of popular transaction-based websites that members can safely access through this detached secure browsing environment.

Trusted Access for Banking follows the new guidelines from the Federal Financial Institutions Examinations Council (FFEIC) surrounding secure online banking and money transfers. It also meets NACHA and FBI recommendations for safe online banking.
