This app has been designed keeping in mind the information and data security needs of Financial Institutions. The app validates the iPad and the financial institution executive / officer by authenticating the user credentials on the DNA database. It also authenticates the iPad being used to login into the app. Every iPad must be registered on the DNA database to allow the iPad to be able to use the app.


Processing:
This app consists of 3 key components:

· Apple iPad App (This component)

· WCF Service (To be installed within the DNA Network)

· DNA App (To be installed on DNA core using DNA Toolkit)
The WCF service is deployed within the DNA domain and acts as the bridge between DNA and iPad users.

To ensure security the iPad app works on VPN (Virtual Private Network) or the branch’s Wi-Fi network.
