Sun National Bank Offers Id Vault To Its Users Free Of Charge To Protect Their Identities When They Shop, Bank & Invest Online

ID Vault delivers strongest protection for Sun National Bank customers against online ID theft threats, including bank Trojans, social media threats and man-in-the-middle attacks

SAN MATEO, California and VINELAND, New Jersey - April 21, 2010 - In its continuing commitment to ensure the security of its customers, Sun National Bank, Inc. will offer the popular ID Vault online identity theft protection software to its banking customers - both individual and small business customers alike - at no cost. ID Vault, the flagship product from White Sky Inc., will protect these users from the growing threats when they bank, shop and invest online; in-branch promotions will begin this week.


"We strive to deliver a positive, safe banking experience to our customers," according to Tom Townsend, EVP, Chief Banking Officer of Sun National Bank. "After conducting extensive research, we have selected ID Vault as a partner to provide the most effective, value-added identity protection solution." Specifically, ID Vault Free Edition will allow Sun National Bank customers to store and protect up to five online accounts and one credit card account at no cost.


"The fear of online identity theft keeps many customers from enjoying the benefits of online banking, and justifiably so, given that such attacks have tripled in the past five years," said David Watkins, CEO of White Sky. "We applaud Sun National Bank for their commitment to protecting their customers."


About ID Vault
ID Vault provides single-click, secure sign-on to financial sites, eliminating exposure to online fraud through its end-to-end, continuous protection, regardless of whether or not the anti-virus software or browser is able to identify a threat. ID Vault creates a secure chain from the PC to the website no matter what compromise may have occurred on the PC or the network. The product is built on a fully integrated, easy-to-use, three-tier protection architecture that no other product can match:

  1. ID Vault stores all account user names and passwords in a highly encrypted, secure software vault on the PC. This data is accessible only via a user-defined PIN, which is authenticated by White Sky servers, providing true two-factor authentication. ID Vault automates the sign-in procedure, protecting consumers from Trojan, keylogging, screen scraping and other attacks.
  2. White Sky's proprietary ID Vault Trusted Network continually monitors a "white list" of over 8,000 trusted and verified financial and e-commerce web sites. When consumers open a site using ID Vault, they cannot be redirected, nor have credentials submitted to fraudulent sites.
  3. ID Vault's SecureViewTM safety browser is used to open the financial or shopping site, protecting against malicious plug-ins and other browser-based threats. SecureView provides a safe connection for consumers' online transactions.
