Work safety in the InternetBank
Every day more and more Internet technologies are coming into modern life. Today many banks all over the world, including Estonia, are actively using Internet for distant service of their customers. Its indisputable, that transmittance of financial documents in the open net requires special attention and safety measures. Reliable protection system against illegal access is needed. Taking into consideration the level of modern technologies its not complicated to make it work. There are 2 types of financial information transmittance via Internet :
- installation of special programme support at clients site
- use of standard internet-browser at clients site
First type has visible disadvantages, as it requires some action from clients for installation and adjustment of special programmes, access to information is possible only from the computer with necessary tools ( programmes ) installed. But that type of use has one serious advantage, developers of the system have non-limited possibilities to use of different safety systems and cryptosafety. In the second case developers have to rely on standard safety systems during transmittance of information in the open net.
While using InternetBank, information on clients accounts is protected by 2 independent safety protocols: identification of client by his name, main password and one of 30 passwords from the password card, and encoding of transmitting information.
While connecting with the server in the bank, the browser requests users name, then the main password and additional session password from the password card, which includes 30 passwords,the system picks password at random at the beginning of every session. Successfully identified client get access to information on his bank account. In the InternetBank system protection ( encoding ) of transmitted information is based on standard protocol SSL ( Secure Sockets Layer ). It is the most widely used mean of user identification and encoding of transmitted information in open electronic channels in the Internet, it became the certified industrial standard in this field. SSL was developed by Netscape in 1994.
Protocol SSL provides coding of all transmitted information from customers computer to the server in the bank, it secures protection of financial information. Encoding length is 128 bytes, the highest level of encoding available now, it means that there are 2¹²º possible combinations of “keys”, but only one of them enables access to the information. But using SSL, you have to take into consideration the fact that American legislation limitates “key length “ up to 40 bytes. In Estonia, use of 128 bytes for encoding is allowed. If your browser cannot support 128 bytes cryptography, you can download additional patches from the European or American websites and enlarge your cryptography up to 128 bytes.
