 BITS - Remote Deposit Image Capture: The Process, Risks, and Strategies Used to Mitigate Them
This document is a tool for financial institutions’ use in assessing and mitigating risks associated with implementation of Remote Deposit Image Capture (RDIC).
This paper provides successful strategies that financial institutions (FIs) have employed for managing the risks with RDIC. It does not imply that all of these strategies are necessary for a successful program. This paper also does not address the specific technologies used to implement the RDIC process and/or mitigate the risk, as technology used will often be determined by other factors such as the compatibility of the clients’ and FIs’ equipment. This paper identifies potential risks as they pertain to product distribution, equipment and software, information system security, images and image quality, and processes.
BITS - Key Considerations for Responding to Unauthorized Access to Sensitive Consumer Information
Unauthorized access to sensitive customer information threatens to undermine customer confidence and the reputations of both individual financial institutions and the financial services industry. This threat is aggravated by the patchwork of state laws and federal regulations that govern unauthorized access or breach response incidents. Despite these challenges, financial institutions are strengthening data security programs and developing or improving customer notification programs. The “BITS/ABA Key Considerations for Responding to Unauthorized Access to Sensitive Customer Information” is a tool that may assist some financial institutions in developing and executing response programs when sensitive information is accessed and misused by unauthorized individuals.
