Make security your first move.

Now is a great time to tighten the locks, especially for business security.

As a business and your bank, we understand the importance of spotting vulnerabilities, monitoring account activity and strengthening your defenses against fraud. Start 2026 with a comprehensive security review by completing our free Security Review Checklist.

 

Six Actions to Help Strengthen Your Business Security


1. Assess your Risk

Take a fresh look at your systems and operations to identify weak spots, both digitally and internally. Consider a third-party security assessment to identify critical gaps.
 

2. Update your Policies

Fraud evolves quickly. Make sure your security policies reflect current best practices and compliance standards.
 

3. Audit Employee Access

Confirm that only authorized individuals have access to sensitive data and systems.
 

4. Check your Backup Plan

Test your systems. Verify that your data backups are secure and your recovery plan is ready to go.
 

5. Plan a Year of Training

Address fraud prevention, phishing, social engineering tactics and cybersecurity best practices on a regular basis.
 

6. Monitor Financial Transactions

Watch for unusual transactions. Reduce risk with tools like Check and ACH Positive Pay. And when possible, avoid sending checks through USPS mail as stolen mail is a significant source of check fraud.
 

 

A little prevention now can save a lot of disruption later, and set your business up for a safer, smoother year ahead.
