These 7 Hacks Will Help You Secure Your Online Financial Accounts


Always Opt For One-Time Password:

An OTP, wherever available, works much better than password protection. Also, when entering data such as your online banking account password, rather than using your regular keyboard, use a virtual keyboard. When you use a regular keyboard, there is always a risk of data interception by spyware. Most banking sites provide a virtual keyboard option.

Be Prudent When Using Wireless Connections:

Unsecured Wi-Fi connections do not provide as much security as either wired Internet connections, encrypted wireless networks or your mobile carrier’s cellular data connections. Many wireless hotspot networks in public areas like airports, hotels and restaurants reduce their security settings so it is easier for individuals to access and use these wireless networks.
