PNB Migrates Website to Secure Bank Domain
Punjab National Bank has moved its website to a new, more secure address called '.bank.in'.
This change is happening because the RBI, which oversees banks in India, wants to make online banking safer.
The new domain helps protect against online scams by making it harder for criminals to create fake websites.
PNB is the first government-owned bank to adopt this, part of a larger effort to increase trust and security in digital banking.
The RBI introduced the domain because of rising digital payment fraud.
The Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology (IDRBT) is the exclusive registrar for this domain.
PNB migrated its website to the secure '.bank.in' domain.
This follows an RBI circular from April 22, 2025, regarding the domain.
PNB is the first public sector bank in India to make the switch.
The '.bank.in' domain aims to enhance digital security and combat fraud.
IDRBT is the exclusive registrar for the '.bank.in' domain.
