Our new web address: MNB.Bank
We're committed to being a leading bank, utilizing new technology to keep your private information safe. That’s why we are upgrading our website to further enhance the digital security and protection of our customers. When you visit our bank website in the near future, you will see MNB.Bank in the web address bar at the top of your device’s browser window. When you access our .Bank web domain, you can rest assured you are visiting our legitimate bank website on a secure connection.
Why are we making this change?
Your security is of the utmost importance to us. Because cybercrime is continuing to plague financial institutions, .bank was created to enhance security. Only a financial institution’s website domain can end in .bank, making it much easier to verify the site and know your web browser is safe
What benefit does this provide to you?
When you access our .Bank domain, you can rest assured you are visiting our legitimate bank website on a secure connection. Cyber criminals will be unable to duplicate our website on a similar .Bank domain, keeping our digital branch more secure.
Why haven't other local banks started using .Bank?
The security of our customers’ information is a top priority at MNB. Just as we invest in security systems and vaults in our physical locations, we are also making the same investments for our digital branch security. We are committed to being a leading bank, utilizing new technology to keep your private information safe. Other banks will be following and rolling out their own .Bank domains sometime in the future.
What are the enhanced security requirements in .BANK?
Mandatory verification of charter/licensure for regulated entities ensures the organization requesting the domain is legitimate, the person requesting the domain name is authorized by the company and that the name requested by the company complies with all policies.
Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) to ensure that Internet users are landing on participants’ actual websites and not being misdirected to malicious ones;
-
Email authentication to mitigate spoofing, phishing and other malicious activities propagated through emails to unsuspecting users;
-
Multi-factor authentication to ensure that any change to registration data is made only by authorized users of the registered entity;
-
Strong encryption to ensure security of communication over the Internet;
-
Prohibition of Proxy/Privacy Registration Services to ensure full disclosure of domain Registration information so bad actors cannot hide.
What if I go to the old website?
Not a problem! Our tech gurus have thought of it all. If you forget about the new website’s address and go to MNB1.com, you will be automatically redirected to MNB.Bank! However, be sure to update your bookmarks to the new MNB.Bank website!
