Okay. Thanks. I had wondered because the Canadian Banking Association announced this morning that no Canadian banks were affected. However, this link had some banks as "no SSL" and others as "not vulnerable".

So, new question….if they don't use SSL, would they have their own encryption to assure the traffic between customer and bank is secure?
