- Security
- System Design and Architecture
- Hardware Features
- About Checks

Feyt added, “After requests from banks and vendors, we will provide 'branding' of the Guide as part of their advertising program.”
“We will begin shipping the guide and training materials on Friday, August 7, 2009, and will provide annual updates and immediate e-mail notification of significant changes to financial institutions and business partners on record,” said Feyt.
According to Houston, “Financial institutions and their customers will significantly benefit from the Rules and Training Guide, as it provides copious narratives, examples, and descriptions of the major components of Remote Deposit Capture creating a solid foundation on which to build training programs for the successful use of the technology.”
