Available as a free download, Trusteer’s Rapport secure browsing service can be installed on a customer’s personal PC to lock down the browser and create a safe tunnel for communication between the customer and Bank of Cyprus UK, preventing fraud.

Bank of Cyprus UK supplies its customers with a Digipass® as part of its three pronged approach to security. Rapport is being introduced to complement this technology and provide extra confidence to those using its online banking facilities. Should a fraudster attempt to take over a user’s account Rapport issues an alert of the unusual behaviour immediately, allowing the Bank of Cyprus UK to take action and prevent loss.

A light-weight security software that downloads onto the customer’s computer in minutes, Rapport works in the background and doesn’t call for a change in user behaviour. The solution comes with an application that enables financial institutions to effectively trigger alerts, view and analyse data as well as manage security.

When a Trusteer user browses to the Bank of Cyprus UK website the service immediately locks down the browser. This prevents malware from injecting data and stealing information entered and presented in the browser. Trusteer also removes malicious financial malware it discovers on protected machines. The service is directly connected to the bank and to a 24x7 fraud analysis service. Attempts to steal money from customers are immediately detected by the bank and are blocked using various layers of protection.
