What is the Online Security Device?
To further protect your Internet Banking, HSBC has introduced the Online Security Device as an additional layer of security. HSBC is committed to providing high levels of security to allow peace of mind for our customers. The Online Security Device is a small digital authentication generator (the size of a key ring) provided to Internet Banking customers free of charge. It works by generating a Security Code that constantly changes. This ensures maximum protection for your online accounts. Once you have activated the Online Security Device, the Security Code will be requested for logon, third party transfers and BPAY® transactions, and updating your customer details – providing extra protection for your Internet Banking.
