Baiduri Bank At BITEX
By Izam S Ya'akub,

Bandar Seri Begawan - The upcoming Brunei Information and Communications Technology Exhibition (BITEX) 2005, which will be held at Atrium Hall in The Mall from March 30 to April 3, is going to be participated by Baiduri Bank.

A press release yesterday stated that the bank plans to showcase its upgraded Personal and Business services, which incorporate an enhanced security feature called the Token. This is a handheld device based on a strong two-factor authentication.

To access i-Banking services, registered users will be issued a Personal Identification Number (PIN) and Token. Once the Challenge Key is entered, the Token will generate a Response Key for users to log in or confirm a banking transaction.

This is in addition to other security features such as 128-bit SSL encryption, sign on alert, automatic time-out and 24-7 monitoring.

During the five-day event, Baiduri's Customer Services staff will be on hand to demonstrate the Token's use, as well as provide information on its Personal and Business i-Banking services, ranging from account enquiries and electronic fund transfers, to bill payments.

The latter allows users to pay their bills to service providers like DSTCom easily and conveniently. Registered Business iBanking users will also be able to perform limits enquiry, manage payroll, view complete an audit trail of account activities and follow up on pending transactions with a secure online environment and different levels of access control.

An Internet kiosk will be available at Baiduri Bank's booth for interested customers to navigate around, as well as explore various features of its Personal and Business i-Banking. They may also register for this service on the spot.

As a special promotion, Baiduri Bank will also be offering its MTV MasterCard Electronic CashCard at 50 per cent discount.

With an annual fee of B$7.50, cardholders will have access to a host of benefits including acceptance at over 32 million establishments and over 900,000 ATMs worldwide, online payment as well as attractive discounts and privileges at some of the most popular stores in Brunei.

On top of that, limited edition MTV merchandises will also be given away with every purchase, on a first-come-first-serve basis. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
