Security Statement

Security Statement

Etiqa is highly committed to ensuring that all transactions performed through our online financial service are secure, safe and confidential. For this purpose, we enforce privacy protection control systems designed to ensure the highest security standards and confidentiality.

  • Username and password
  • Information protection
  • Data confidentiality and data integrity
  • Systems security and monitoring
  • Computer virus protection
  • Updating your browser
  • Security tips

To prevent unauthorised access to our online financial services, every customer is required to select a username and an alphanumeric password, which provides access to their financial information. The username must be between 6 to 16 characters and the alphanumeric password between 8 to 12 characters. The password must include both alphabets and numbers but you may also use special characters (e.g. & * $) except spaces.

The username and alphanumeric password are case sensitive. For example, if your password is “fuNNySAD2B” and you key in “fuNNySAD2b”, you will not be able to login (the “b” must be uppercase).

Here are some tips to ensure the integrity of your username and password:

  • Do not choose a password that others can easily guess.
  • Do not use simple words, your name, birth date, telephone number or names listed in a standard dictionary.
  • Memorise your password and do not write it down.
  • Passwords or PINs should be used when accessing an online account to protect your personal information.
  • Sharing your password or PIN with another person is the same as giving that individual authority to use your name in a transaction. It should not be disclosed even if requested by an authorised Etiqa Officer.
  • Change your password frequently.

 

To create a unique password, try the following methods (but don’t copy the examples):

  • Use a combination of unrelated words and numbers
    E.g. tiger63rain
  • Use grossly misspelt or mistyped words
    E.g. sinaran_07 —: slnalam_07
  • Use both upper and lower case characters
    E.g. funnysad2b —: fuNNySAD2B
  • Use a line of lyrics or poem
    E.g. “A thousand sad reasons for a broken heart” —: 1Ksrfabh
We take considerable effort to ensure a safe and secure online experience, but we do not have control over the computer you use to access Etiqa. As an added security feature, we have incorporated an automatic log out function if no activity is detected after a preset time limit.
 
However, you must ensure that your computer does not provide anyone opportunity to gain access to your account information: 
  • Ensure no one has access to your computer or records your online activities.
  • Always log out of Etiqa immediately after completing transactions and before visiting other websites.
  • Do not send any information about your account via e-mail.
  • Disable the AutoComplete function on your browser to avoid automatic completion of your ID when you type in User ID.
  • To turn AutoComplete “On” or “Off” in MS Internet Explorer browser:
  • Click the “Tools” menu to get the “Internet Options” function.
  • Click “Internet Options” to get the “Content” tab.
  • From this tab, click the “AutoComplete” button.
  • Uncheck “User names and passwords on forms”.


More Security Tips

  • Don’t open suspicious e-mail attachments.
  • Avoid downloading free programs. These may incorporate hacker-friendly software.
  • Download security updates regularly.
  • Don’t use the “remember password” function because this information can be easily accessed by hackers.
  • Clear your cache (information stored in your computer memory) each time you log out. Click “clear your cache
  • ” in the Etiqa logout page and follow the step-by-step instructions.

The Etiqa has adopted a combination of the following systems security and monitoring measures for online transactions:

  • Firewall systems, strong data encryption, anti-virus protection and round-the-clock security surveillance systems to detect and prevent any form of illegitimate activities on our network systems.
  • Regular security reviews of our systems by our internal System Auditor as well as external security experts.
  • When you have a broadband connected to the Internet (always-on connection), consider installing a personal firewall. At a minimum, power-off your PC when not in use.
  • We also take every effort in ensuring collaboration with major vendors/manufacturers to keep abreast of information security technology developments, for possible and future implementation.
Computer viruses are real and once your computer is infected it can cost you time, loss of information, repair expense, and aggravation. Make sure your computer has an anti-virus protection program installed to reduce the risk.
 
We recommend that you purchase a program that automatically upgrades your virus protection on a recurring basis. If you currently have a virus protection program on your computer without the automatic upgrade feature, make sure you update your virus detection program at least monthly and/or when you hear of a new virus to minimize your risk. You can do this by visiting the Internet site of the company that provides your software.
 
In addition we advise not to open attachments from others or open diskettes unless you have absolute certainty that you can trust the source, and then still be cautious. Whoever sent you that attachment or gave you a diskette may not know that they have carried the virus to you.

An Internet browser allows access and the ability to navigate a myriad of information and service resources on the Internet. Most computers come with a browser already installed.

  • Check your browser for built-in safety features that you may or may not elect to use.
  • Do not install unnecessary extensions or plugins to the web browser.
  • Regularly clear all the cache, cookies and temporary files from the browser history.
