Security Features
Enhanced log in process We have made the login process to business internet banking easier and yet more secure. We have introduced 2-factor authentication, which requires a combination of something you know and what something you have i.e. security token.
Auto log off When you log in to our BIB profile, the system will constantly monitor what you do and log you off if it senses you’re inactive. This helps you stay protected if other people have access your computer or mobile device.
Temporarily disabling your online access We will temporarily disable your account if we notice too many failed attempts to log in to your account. There should be few worries about this feature preventing you from accessing your account again – all you need is a phone call to us.

The catch is that they want access to your account
