TCWS Check Printing Security System

Reducing the Risk of Check Fraud in your Business

How can you reduce the risk of check fraud in your organization?

	Control when checks can be printed.
	Control who in your organization can print, reprint and sign checks.
	Be able to report exactly who printed which checks when.
	Use of the Positive Pay module.

How do Relyco's products accomplish these steps?

Use features that prevent alterations to a printed check�

	Check paper security features - Relyco has a full line of ultra-secure check paper. All of our checks have at least 10 security features, with features including void pantographs, gradient screens, watermarks, micro printing, toner grip and thermo chromic ink.
	TCWS has the option to print a secure amount font that can be printed along with the check amount written out in words. This font makes it very difficult to modify the check amount for fraudulent purposes.

Control access to check stock and the equipment needed to produce legitimate checks�

	Our MICR Printers have options to lock printer trays. When locked, access to check paper is available only with a physical key.
	A removable USB hardlock key prevents unauthorized usage of the TROY Check Writing Software at the computer workstations. Without this key, the software cannot be started and checks cannot be printed.

Control when checks can be printed�

By removing the software�s USB key and the printer�s key, checks can only be printed when an authorized user is granted access to these keys.

Control who in your organization can print, reprint and sign checks�

	Access to the software is limited by a secure user name and password.
	Each user name has customized operator privileges. These privileges include the ability to reprint checks, run reports, access to individual accounts and supervisor rights.
	Signatures in TCWS are encrypted. The signature files are embedded in the TCWS database files and cannot be copied or printed using any software program other than TCWS.
	Signatures can be set to print subject to check amount limits defined for each TROY Check Writing Software operator or bank account. Signatures will be dropped from checks as at these limits.
	A second signature line can be added as well at set amount thresholds.

Be able to report exactly who printed which checks when�

TCWS offers Audit and Archive Reporting systems which give all the important data of a current check run along with the historical information of all checks printed through the software.

Use of the Positive Pay module�

Positive Pay (optional module in TCWS) - With the Positive Pay module, you can generate a file with the printed check�s information (i.e., check number, check amount � file will vary per bank�s specifications). This file is sent to your banking institution over a direct modem connection or via a secure internet site. The responsibility is then transferred to the bank: they are to clear only the checks that are listed in the Positive Pay file. If a check comes in for an amount different than what is in the file, the bank notifies you and the fraud is stopped.
