About Security Features
ANZ uses a range of risk management and security features to help safeguard your corporate accounts and information when using our digital services, including ANZ Transactive – Global. If you have access to an ANZ digital service, you must understand your obligations in protecting your data, as online security is a shared responsibility.
ANZ is committed to helping you reduce the risk of these threats by providing a range of resources. We recommend that you periodically review the latest information on the following websites:
For simple, everyday information on cyber security for business, read ANZ’s Simplifying Cyber for Business guide.
To stay informed on the latest scams, read Latest Security Alerts.
To access your ANZ digital service, login with an issued User ID and a security credential such as a Password or a Token device. These credentials verify your identity when you log on to the platform and manage or approve transactions. It is highly recommended to keep your credentials private from others.
ANZ strongly recommends:
- Using two-factor authentication (2FA) for an additional layer of security, such as a Token or ANZ Digital Key.
- Not using public computers to access ANZ Transactive – Global or conduct transactions; not using public WIFI networks when using online banking services.
- Not saving usernames and passwords, PINs on browsers.
- Not using unlocked mobile equipment to download and use the online banking application software or OTP (One-Time Password) generator software.
To help protect you from fraud, ANZ partners with a trusted security service provider.
By using Institutional Digital Services (other than via mobile), you consent to ANZ and our provider collecting behavioural data about how you use your device on Institutional Digital Services (other than via mobile) logon pages and in channel – such as mouse movements and keystroke patterns. We use this, along with other information we collect or hold, to detect suspicious activity.
ANZ’s security service provider creates anonymised profiles and is not able to identify you as an individual. If you do not consent to this, please exit your Institutional Digital Services (other than mobile) logon page and contact us.
For details on how ANZ manages your information, please refer to the ANZ Privacy Policy.
Two-factor authentication (2FA) provides an additional layer of security when using ANZ digital services. With two-factor authentication, you confirm your digital identity using a combination of something you know (your password) and something you have (a security device).
With 2FA, if an unauthorised person obtains your password, that information alone is insufficient to access your ANZ digital services. ANZ strongly recommends the use of security devices at all times. Contact ANZ to request a security device. Please note that not all security device types are available for all digital services or all users. Additionally, laws and regulations in some geographies may mandate the use of a particular type of security device.
To learn more about the security device types available, refer to Security Devices.
Having a single individual perform all functions within a digital channel can increase the risk of fraudulent activity going undetected. As such, ANZ strongly recommends you segregate duties amongst multiple users. This includes using multiple administrators when making changes to user profiles and system settings, as well as ensuring different users are involved when creating and approving payments and direct debits.
To ensure that you have implemented segregation of duties across ANZ Transactive – Global:
- Check that your Administration Model provides segregation of duties for changes made to user profiles and system settings
- Check the Authorisation Matrix that is in place for each payment and direct debit product is appropriate
- Check that your users have the correct roles assigned for the tasks they undertake
- Check that all new and changes made to beneficiaries in your Beneficiaries screen require approval
- Consider receiving an email notification each time a change is made to a beneficiary from your Beneficiaries screen.
ANZ Transactive – Global has preset default limits for approving payments and restricting the transaction value users can authorise. Your company administrator can amend users' discretion limits based on your structured business requirements.
To learn more, refer to User Permissions and Edit User.
