★ WHAT IS A SOFT TOKEN? ★
A soft token is a software app downloaded and installed on your mobile device. The app generates a one-time passcode which will be used instead of a password when you log in to ProvidentConnect for Business Online Banking. This passcode is a combination of 8-digit PIN you create and an 8-digit PIN provided from the RSA SecurID mobile app - the passcode will consist of 16-digits, which adds an extra layer of protection to your account and personal information.
