A closer look at Security…

CommBiz access is protected by the highest levels of security including login credentials, security tokens and NetLock USB devices.

Click each heading to learn more. Then click ‘Next’ to continue.
  • User access - Each user is authenticated using a login ID and login password before being granted access to CommBiz.
  • User permissions - CommBiz customers can nominate user permissions and what level of access they are granted to ‘see’ and ‘do’ within CommBiz.
  • Role permissions - CommBiz customers can establish ‘roles’ which represent common permissions for a group of users. Roles allow individual users to be assigned to a particular function, such as a payroll or accounts payable clerk.

All CommBiz authorisers and administrators are provided with a security token. The two tokens available for CommBiz are the Go3 and the Pro260.

  • Go3 - provides a simple two-factor authentication solution. The one-time password is generated by pressing the activation button on the left-hand side of the token.
  • Pro260 – provides a higher level of security and three-factor authentication. Before a one-time password can be generated, the Pro260 token must be activated by first entering a PIN number.

Used in addition to CommBiz security tokens, token holders are eligible to receive a NetLock USB. This enables customers to use any Internet connection to carry out CommBiz transactions with complete confidence.

  • Contains an encrypted digital certificate to authenticate the Internet connection to CommBiz, and launches a secure, hardened Firefox browser.
  • Can be used on any Windows or Mac computer with a USB enabled port. It doesn’t require a software installation and it updates itself automatically.
  • Protects customers against ‘man in the middle’ and ‘man in the browser’ attacks.
