A computer, Internet access and a 256-bit encrypted browser - Latest version of Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.

If you're using an older browser version that is no longer compatible with Online Banking you can go to the Google Chrome or Microsoft web sites and download a new browser version (www.google.com or www.microsoft.com). We do not recommend that you download beta versions. Once you have completed the download and installation of the recommended browser, you can return to the sign in screen and sign in to Online Banking.

Online Banking uses several different methods to protect your information:

All information within Online Banking uses the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol for transferring data. SSL is encryption that creates a secure environment for the information being transferred between your browser and Washita State Bank.

At a high level, SSL uses public key cryptography to secure transmissions over the Internet. In practice, your browser will send a message via SSL to the bank's server. The bank responds by sending a certificate, which contains the bank's public key. Your browser authenticates the certificate (agrees that the server is in fact Washita State Bank's), then generates a random session key which is used to encrypt data traveling between your browser and the bank's server. This session key is encrypted using the bank's public key and sent back to the server. The bank decrypts this message using its private key, and then uses the session key for the remainder of the communication.

Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protects data in three key ways:

• Authentication ensures that you are communicating with the correct server. This prevents another computer from impersonating Washita State Bank.
• Encryption scrambles transferred data.
• Data integrity verifies that the information sent by you to Washita State Bank wasn't altered during the transfer. The system detects if data was added or deleted after you sent the message. If any tampering has occurred, the connection is dropped.

Yes. Washita State Bank is committed to making Online Banking safe and secure to provide you with peace of mind when you access your account information. To ensure the security of your account information, Online Banking also uses 256-bit SSL encryption.

To help protect your privacy while you are using the service, we will sign you out of the Online Banking service after 15 minutes of inactivity.

SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer. This technology allows users to establish sessions with Internet sites that are secure, meaning they have minimal risk of external violation. Once inside the Online Banking site, you are secure through our use of SSL technology.

Encryption is the scrambling of information for transmission back and forth between two points. A key is required to decode the information. When you request information about your accounts, the request is sent encrypted to Washita State Bank. The system decodes your request for information and sends it back to you in an encrypted format. When you receive it, your information is decoded so that you can read it. Because your account information is being transmitted between you and Washita State Bank, encryption protects your account information so it can't be intercepted and read by a third party.

There are basically two types of encryption: High and Standard. The difference between these types of encryption is the strength of capability. A High (256-bit) encryption is exponentially more powerful than the older (256-bit) encryption. High or 256-bit encryption means there are septillion possible keys that could fit into the lock that holds your account information, but only one that works for each time you bank online. Washita State Bank uses the highest level of encryption (256-bit) to ensure your online transmissions are secure.
