Section 4-A-201. Security Procedure  


Latest version.
  • "Security  procedure"  means a procedure established by agreement of a
      customer and a receiving bank for the purpose of (1)  verifying  that  a
      payment order or communication amending or cancelling a payment order is
      that  of the customer, or (2) detecting error in the transmission or the
      content of the payment order or communication. A security procedure  may
      require  the  use  of  algorithms  or  other codes, identifying words or
      numbers, encryption, callback procedures, or similar  security  devices.
      Comparison  of  a  signature on a payment order or communication with an
      authorized specimen signature  of  the  customer  is  not  by  itself  a
      security procedure.
