eMDS Security Policy

At Landbank, you are always assured that your MDS transactions are safe and secure. The Landbank Electronic Modified Disbursement System, eMDS, takes great measures to ensure that our security practices conform to the best electronic transaction standards and adequately respond to all your institutional needs.

To ensure that the privacy of your account information and MDS transactions are maintained, Landbank has set forth the following:



Security Systems

Landbank deploys intrusion detection systems, firewalls, encryption systems such as 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and other internal controls which are meant to safeguard, physically and logically, all our servers and information systems, including the data stored in these systems. Furthermore, it has an in house Network Operations Department that secures the maintenance of the whole facility.




Website Authentication

The Landbank eMDS is secure, using Verisign's Security Certificate for you to verify the authenticity of the eMDS site. At times, it may be necessary for you to verify the authenticity of the eMDS site in order not to fall victim to email scams for example, that direct our clients to seemingly legitimate sites then mislead them into providing vital account information to entities not authorized by the Bank. The Verisign Logo attached on all our eMDS pages, when clicked, securely authenticates the eMDS site. The best, safest and recommended way to access the eMDS website is by typing www.lbpemds.com at the browser address bar.




Third-Party Agreements

Certain transactions involving third parties require enrollment of third-party accounts by the Agency (for LDDAP-IC) submitted to us for verification. With this policy, you are assured that Landbank will honor requests for payments only to those that the Agency has enrolled.




Password Protection

All clients visiting the eMDS website pass through the Log-in authentication process. Clients are advised to use a password that is easy to remember but hard for others to guess. Ensure to keep password confidential at all times by not writing or divulging it to anyone. Change password frequently, or change it immediately once password has been compromised.
