For any individual, who relies on Net Banking transactions, it a matter of concern that the Bank's website is genuine or not. Though most of the Banks have installed Tools and Procedures like i) Image and Phrase selection of your choice, ii) OTP - one time Password, iii) Registration of third-party payee within the Bank, NEFT and RTGS and confirmation thereof through OTP.
Moreover one must see Lock sign for the security of the website and
check for signs below to know more about security :
Icon | What it means |
---|---|
The site’s certificate is valid and its identity has been verified by a trusted third-party authority. | |
The site has not provided the browser with a certificate. This is normal for regular HTTP sites (look for the icon in the address bar) because certificates are usually provided only if the site uses SSL. | |
Google Chrome has detected problems with the site’s certificate. You should proceed with caution because the site may be pretending to be another site in order to trick you into sharing personal or other sensitive information with them. |
Your connection to the site
Google Chrome lets you know whether your connection is fully encrypted. If your connection is insecure, third parties might be able to view or tamper with the information you provide on the site.

Mixed scripting can provide a loophole for someone to take over the page. This content could be third-party scripts or videos embedded on the page.
