Security Features in PNB Net Banking
When it comes to banking online, security is of utmost importance. Punjab National Bank’s Net Banking offers several layers of security to ensure that all transactions are safe and secure. In this section, we will look at all the security features available in PNB Net Banking to ensure that your online banking experience is as safe and secure as possible.
Set up two-factor authentication
Two-factor authentication, also known as 2FA, is an extra layer of security that allows you to confirm your identity with two separate ways of verification. It was designed to make online transactions more secure by making it much harder for malicious actors to compromise your account and access confidential information.
When you set up two-factor authentication, you will be prompted to enter a one-time code every time you attempt to make a payment from your bank account via the PNB net banking system. This code will be emailed or messaged to the contact information provided during registration. Two-factor authentication provides an added layer of security by ensuring that only the authorized user can access the account, even if they somehow know the username and password associated with it.
To set up two-factor authentication in your PNB net banking portal, click on ‘Security Settings’ and then ‘Set Up Two – Factor Authentication’ under the settings section. Select ‘Enable’ after entering in all requested details such as name, phone number, email address and any other identifying details requested by PNB net banking system developers.
Once enabled, users can log in with their username and password plus a special one-time code that is sent via SMS or email for each attempted transaction from then on.
Use a strong password
When accessing PNB Net Banking, it is important to ensure you use a strong password that cannot be easily guessed by anyone. A strong password must be at least 8 characters in length and should contain upper case and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.
Uppercase and lowercase letters add complexity to the password, while numbers and special characters help increase the difficulty in guessing it. Additionally, make sure you never choose easily obtained information such as your birthdate or your pet’s name as your password.
It is also recommended that you change your password regularly to reduce the risk of someone using stolen credentials to access your PNB Net Banking account. You should also remember to not share your credentials with anyone since doing so could leave you vulnerable to unauthorized access.
Furthermore, when logging into PNB Net Banking via public computers such as in a library or an internet café, make sure no one is able to observe you typing in your credentials. Doing this allows them to take advantage of the information entered if they can obtain the browser’s history later on.
Enable IP address restriction
Adding an IP address restriction to Net Banking is a security measure that prevents access to your account from certain locations or networks. To enable this, log into your account and go to ‘Account Settings’. Look for ‘IP Address Restriction’ and click ‘Turn On’ to activate this feature.
Once enabled, only the IP addresses you specify will be able to access your online banking account with your user ID and password. To add a new IP address, type in the IP address in the appropriate field and then click ‘Save’. You can assign up to 10 whitelisted IP addresses. All other connections will be blocked from accessing the service.
For increased security measures, we recommend enabling a two-factor authentication process when logging into Net Banking or setting up a limit on withdrawals over certain amounts. Also make sure to keep your passwords safe, use strong passwords with combinations of characters, upper case letters and numbers that are not easily guessed.
