ID TheftSmartTM Protection
ID TheftSmart TM
We would like to help protect you from the fastest-growing crime in the U.S. by offering your ID Theft protection through Kroll ID TheftSmart™.
Identity Theft
Some companies' idea of restoration amounts to handing you a do-it-yourself kit. Not with ID TheftSmart™. They provide full-service restoration, which means their experienced, licensed investigators do the bulk of the work on your behalf.
Smart Credit Monitoring
Of course, the best way to safeguard your identity is through constant vigilance and early detection. ID TheftSmart™ provides continuous credit monitoring to alert you to any potential problems or suspicious activity.
Minor Monitoring
Minor Monitoring is protecting your children against Identity theft. ID TheftSmart™ monitors for any credit activity, and if activity is detected, the adult will receive an alert.
Identity Theft Membership
For pricing and membership options, please call and speak to a Personal Banker at (402) 505-8500.
Ransomware Resources
The U.S. Government launched a new website to help public and private organizations defend against the rise in ransomware cases. StopRansomware.gov is a whole-of-government approach that gives one central location for ransomware resources and alerts. We encourage organizations to use this new website to understand the threat of ransomware, mitigate risk, and, in the event of an attack, know what steps to take next.
The StopRansomware.gov webpage is an interagency resource that provides ransomware protection, detection, and response guidance that they can use on a single website. This includes ransomware alerts, reports, and resources from CISA, the FBI, and other federal partners.

Warning Signs:
The caller threatens to suspend your Social Security benefits.
The caller tries to charge you for services the Social Security Administration provides for free.

Warning Signs:
The message says you owe money and face legal or financial consequences if you don’t pay right away.

Warning Signs:
They ask you to start communicating by text or personal email, away from the original site you met on.
