Fraud and Cybersecurity
Why We All Need To Take Fraud and Cybersecurity Seriously
At EagleBank, we take fraud and cybersecurity very seriously. It demands a lot of our time and effort to ensure our systems, your information – and your dollars – are protected. We work proactively to understand and manage the fraud and cyber threats and risks we face on a day-to-day basis. Many believe that it’s not a case of “if” you will get hacked or scammed, but “when,” so we also understand the need to be prepared for the worst; and so should you!
We are always willing to work with our customers to review the proper and safe use of online and/or traditional banking services, but it is critical that we all work together to improve security, protect information, and help reduce cyber crime, fraud and financial losses. We strongly encourage you to take fraud and cybersecurity as seriously as we do; we are all truly in this together. Please visit this page often and use the information available here to learn more about cyber threats, risks, and fraudulent methods that put your information, money and identity at risk. At the very least, follow and know the security basics so we can help each other to stay protected from cyber criminals and fraudsters.
