There are many ways that Web Business Banking helps you securely manage the system
and protect your company’s data. Web Business Banking provides you with the ability
to do the following:
Limit Access to the system as well as specific functions:
An authorized user with the appropriate rights sets up and maintains users for your company
Security rights are assigned to users in order to restrict access to service functions and data
A unique Connect ID and password is required to allow you to connect to TD Bank
Limit Authority:
Web Business Banking offers the security feature - Approval Required for Administrative Changes.
This feature limits the authority of any one individual in your company.
When selected, any change to administrative functions performed for your company requires
an authorized user to approve the change.
Web Business Banking works with both Netscape® and
Microsoft®1 Internet Explorer browsers that support 128-bit encryption. Encryption is a way
of scrambling your information
so that unauthorized individuals cannot decipher it. To unscramble the information,
one needs a key. For your protection, only TD has the key.
After a period of inactivity, your session will expire
and you will need to login again. This helps to prevent unauthorized access if you leave
your PC temporarily.
Some services on your Web Business Banking system
may require or provide the option of the use of an Authentication Device to further
protect your transactions.
Select different levels of Security:
Within the security system provided, your company can elect to use one of the following approval
processes for a particular service. Note: Not all approval processes are available for each service.
No Authorization- Transactions are sent to TD Bank by the creator of the transaction.
No further approval is required.
Authorization- A System Administrator assigns certain users the right to authorize transactions.
Other users can create the transaction, but only users with the Authorize right can approve
the transaction to be sent to the Bank for processing.
Authorization with Authentication- If your company has chosen this level of security,
a System Administrator assigns a Connect ID along with the applicable Authentication Device to
each user responsible for authorizing payments. In order to send transactions to TD,
these users must use the assigned Authentication Device to approve each transaction.
