Important security factor:
Your awareness

Credit Suisse gives top priority to security in Online & Mobile
Banking. It is also important for you to be alert. Stay secure by following these points:

Never disclose your personal login credentials like user ID, password or the SecureSign letter. Credit Suisse will never ask you to disclose your personal information via email, text message, telephone or upload functionality.
Ignore unexpected emails and don’t click on links and attachments. If you receive such an email, please delete it immediately.
Start your Online Banking always with credit-suisse.com and check the website certificate (Lock symbol next to the web address).
Use a secure password and avoid using the same password for multiple logins.
Always use up-to-date software and install an antivirus application.
Don’t install additional applications from unknown websites. On your smartphone you only need the SecureSign and Online Banking app from the official App Store and Play Store.

If you receive suspicious emails, telephone calls or updates contact the Online Banking Help-Line or your Relationship Manager immediately.
