I received an error message telling me I need to update my web browser. Why?
In order to provide proper protection of your credit union accounts, e-Branch requires a web browser with 128 bit encryption. This level of encryption is the current acceptable standard to provide adequate security for Internet transactions. You must use Internet Explorer 5.5 or Netscape Navigator 4.7 or higher web browsers to utilize 128 bit encryption.
