A leading German direct bank defeats Trojans with CrontoSign
Cronto and comdirect bank AG, a leading direct bank in Germany with over 1.7 million customers, have launched photoTAN today, offering a modern, innovative way to protect online trading and banking operations for private investors.
Cronto’s visual transaction signing solution – CrontoSign, known in Germany as photoTAN – is a simple and effective way to mitigate even very sophisticated attacks by Trojan malware, targeting online banking services.
CrontoSign protects against such attacks as it allows the bank to establish a secure optical communication channel with the client. Customers of comdirect can simply “scan” a photoTAN image displayed on bank’s website and verify the details of the payment on a trusted display. They can choose between the photoTAN mobile app or a dedicated photoTAN hardware device.
"Our customers' confidence in online security is very important to us, therefore we are investing in modern technologies. photoTAN offers our customers the real added value – the solution is not only very secure, but at the same time, makes online banking even more convenient," said Sabine Münster, Head of Banking at comdirect.
Igor Drokov, CEO, Cronto, says: “Following the successful rollout of photoTAN by Commerzbank AG earlier this year, Cronto is privileged to collaborate with another strong market leader such as comdirect bank, allowing more German customers to enhance both security and convenience of their financial transactions.”
