Banking Mode
Banking mode is designed to secure your online banking. When you enable Banking mode, Online Armor will only allow your computer to connect to Trusted or Protected websites. This ensures that you (or your computer) cannot be tricked into visiting a fraudulent website designed to steal your login information, and that your computer cannot send information to any other sites.
Instead of exclusively maintaining a list of “bad” websites, Online Armor uses the Trusted list and any websites you define in the Web Sites section of Online Armor. Any connections to sites that are not on these lists will be automatically blocked while in Banking mode.
When you first install Online Armor you should try changing to Banking mode and going to the bank and/or financial institution websites that you visit. If you cannot connect to any site, or page on these sites, then you can add them to the Web Sites list. We also request that you contact us anonymously using the Contact Form so that we can add them to the built-in list for others that use the same websites.
When you add a site to the Web Sites list, you will need to include any subdomains. Website addresses are structured as follows:
http://subdomain.domain.com
As an example, your bank may use www.bank.com, www2.bank.com, and/or bankonline.bank.com for their online banking website. If even one of these are not on your Trusted or Protected list, then you may not be able to use some or all online banking functions.
Note: Banking Mode is not available in Online Armor Free.
