Trusteer Rapport

As online fraud techniques become more sophisticated so do the measures we take to keep you safe online.

In Partnership with the online security experts, Trusteer, we are pleased to offer you Trusteer Rapport security software to work alongside your current anti-virus software and firewalls to give you comprehensive online protection - It's free and simple to download.

Trusteer Rapport protects your internet connection by creating a tunnel for safe communication with your online bank. It takes a unique approach that adds real value on top of your current security software. When you connect to the Online Bank, Rapport does four main things in the background to make it extremely difficult for criminals to target you:

  1. Rapport verifies that you are really connected to the bank's genuine website.
  2. Once verification is complete, Rapport locks down communication between your computer and the bank's website.
  3. Rapport protects your computer and internet connection by creating safe communication with your bank, preventing use of malware.
  4. Trusteer Rapport works along side with your current security software.

Rapport is focused on preventing online fraud committed by financial malware and differs from Anti-Virus and Firewalls because it:

  • Locks down access to financial and private data instead of looking for malware signatures
  • Communicates with your online banking website to provide feedback on security level
  • Reports unauthorised access attempts
  • Allows for immediate action to be taken against changes in threat

Rapport's technology blocks advanced Trojans including Zeus, Silon, Torpig and Yaludle without the need to constantly update and chase the different variants of these Trojans. Rapport is also capable of preventing very targeted and under the radar phishing attacks.
