Consumers can get tips on safe Internet banking from a new publication produced by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

The publication, "Tips for Safe Banking Over the Internet," gives tips in areas such as how to confirm that a bank is legitimate, how to check to make sure it's insured, how to keep personal information private, how to file suspicious activity complaints, and how to find consumer rights and regulatory agency information. It also explains what some general security features are including encryption, personal identification numbers and passwords, and general security such as virus protection and physical access controls.
