I don't see a lock icon in my browser, is this login really secure?
It sure is. Michigan Coastal Credit Union is committed to the integrity of your data, and we would never gamble with your private information.
True, the website you're viewing now isn't secure, that's why there's no lock icon. The home banking application, however, is secure, and that's the important part.
If this site's not secure, then how can the login be?
When you hit the login button, your web browser contacts the CU*@HOME servers (https://www.cuathome.org/), establishing a secured connection. Only after the connection is verified on both your web browser and the servers will your browser send the encrypted data. This fact has been personally verified by the CU*@HOME team.
Confused? Think of secure connections like making a deposit at the credit union. By approaching the teller station, you establish a connection with the teller. Even though you're not secured behind the counter, the teller is, and you know you can safely conduct your business.
Web pages, secure or not, will establish secure connections before any data is transmitted as long as the destination is secure.
I'd still like to login from a secure page.
We understand some of you may still be hesitant to use this feature. That's okay. You can still log in to CU*@HOME on the secure server by visiting https://www.cuathome.org/wesco/default.asp?CU=004
