Online Banking is Now More Secure Than Ever
Fremont Bank is proud to deliver a higher level of security for
our Personal Online Banking clients. We have enhanced our Multifactor
Authentication (MFA) software by adding an additional layer of security
to our log in process, better safeguarding the privacy and security
of your personal information.
How does MFA work?
Multifactor Authentication is a layer of security added on to the
log in process to help ensure that your information is safeguarded.
It helps you know that you are at Fremont Bank's legitimate Online
Banking site and helps us identify it is really you logging in to
your accounts. MFA is very easy to use and there is no software to
install. Just follow the instructions to enroll and learn about the
enhanced log in procedures for Online Banking.

To enroll into MFA, follow these
steps.
- Log in by entering your current Access ID.
Click LOG IN.
- Enter your current password. Click SUBMIT.
- Complete the Set Security Data information.
- Provide a current email address.
- You will be provided with an Authentication Image. Enter
a Pass Phrase for the selected Authentication Image. Your
Pass Phrase can be any word or phrase, 6-30 characters,
which should have some personal meaning to the Authentication
Image. Your Pass Phrase must be different from your Online
Banking password. This image can be changed once enrolled.

computer, or a public computer.

That's it. The next time you log in, MFA will
recognize you and display your Authentication Image & Pass
Phrase. We recommend that once you are enrolled and logged in
