We're always looking for ways to keep you and your money secure, so we've enlisted the help of the financial security experts at Trusteer. Their free Rapport security software provides additional protection against online fraud and identity theft.

It does this by confirming that you are on the genuine Coventry Building Society website and not a fake, it provides a 'secure tunnel' for data to pass between your computer and us.

Use it alongside your anti-virus software and firewall

It doesn't replace your existing security, but works alongside them to provide an additional layer of protection. Have a look at the list of compatible anti-virus and firewall software on the Trusteer support website.
