If you are a demat account holder with CDSL you now get an excellent service – free access to your demat account where you can check your statement, transaction, etc.

Should the login be given and the client asked to generate his own password – name+ dob+ four digits of the account number …or something like that? Now this is what they are doing – sending the whole thing in one mail, AND

Only worry is the way the login and password is being sent to everybody. Here is an example:

With Warm Regards,

  1. hey guys do not take the post seriously :). I was taking a dig at the complete lack of security. If I had got such a mail, I would have screamed. CDSL should be sending such info partially by mail, and one part by a SEALED courier – just like a bank sends you your net banking login and password that is all.

  2. With the kind of online threat looming around – security is what struck at the first go.

    Missing the trees for the woods is short sightedness

  3. Speaking of CAMSonline consolidated view thingy, it is very easy to know the mutual portfolio a person is maintaining if you know the email_id of the person. Though this might not be exactly a security threat, it is certainly unnecessary disclosure.

  4. Pradip,
    There is no risk with CAMS – they do not show the details online. You need to know the mail-id & they send the statement to that mail only.

  5. With the kind of hackers making a living from the internet “unnecessary disclosure” of an portfolio is a potential security threat in itself.

  6. I AM UNABLE TO REGISTER FOR EASI FACILITY.

    KINDLY CANCEL MY EARLIER ATTEMPTS AND GUIDE ME TO REGISTER AFRESH

  7. I am unable to register my easi.I have made much attempts but not can’t register. I have been given passward but not known users name .kindly help
