In a move to enhance digital banking security, AEON Bank, Malaysia’s first Islamic digital bank, has introduced a new Mobile Security Platform (MSP). This advanced shielding technology aims to safeguard your data and prevent cyber threats, reinforcing the bank’s commitment to secure and enhance seamless banking experiences.
Proactive Digital Security Measures
The MSP system continuously monitors for potential security risks, including malware, unauthorised modifications, and device vulnerabilities. Suppose your device is identified as compromised due to factors such as jailbreaking, rooting, or unauthorised app modifications.
In that case, the system immediately notifies you and temporarily disables access to the AEON Bank app. This proactive measure prevents data theft and unauthorised transactions.
“Protecting our customers is our top priority as a fully digital bank. With the Mobile Security Platform (MSP), we are ensuring that our users can bank with confidence and peace of mind,” said YM Raja Teh Maimunah Raja Abdul Aziz, Chief Executive Officer of AEON Bank.
How the Shielding Technology Works
AEON Bank’s security approach includes a multi-layered protection system:
- Threat Detection and Alerts: You receive in-app security notifications if your devices are deemed compromised, ensuring immediate awareness of potential risks.
- Guided Resolution Steps: You can regain access by addressing detected security threats, such as restoring factory settings or adjusting device configurations. AEON Bank advises you to back up your data before resetting your devices.
- Secure Re-access: Once security concerns are resolved, you can relaunch or reinstall the AEON Bank app for a secure banking experience.
Importantly, AEON Bank ensures that MSP does not collect, process, or store personal information from your devices, focusing instead on protecting account integrity without compromising privacy.
Encouraging Customer Vigilance
While AEON Bank continues to enhance its digital security measures, you are also encouraged to take proactive steps to protect your financial information:
- Regularly review app permissions on your devices.
- Monitor data usage for any unusual spikes or high bills.
- Frequently check account balances and transaction statements, reporting any suspicious activity to AEON Bank’s Customer Support.
