Case Study: NH Bank achieves compliant, secure online banking with Thales authentication solutions

NH Bank secures 50,000 customers with Thales e-Security

NH Bank, a major South Korean financial institution and the country's largest online banking community, faced the challenge of securing customer access to its extensive online services. They needed a two-factor authentication solution to prevent identity theft and fraud while complying with regulations from the Korea Information Security Agency (KISA) that required PKCS #11 support. To meet this need, NH Bank partnered with Thales e-Security.

Thales e-Security provided its SafeNet eToken USB Authenticators and SafeNet Authentication Client. This solution enabled strong, certificate-based PKI authentication for over 50,000 customers, ensuring full compliance with KISA regulations. The implementation by Thales successfully prevented fraud, protected customer identities, and offered a convenient, portable solution that gave customers complete assurance to carry out online banking transactions securely.
