Security is always the first concern when it comes to the transmission and storage of business data. Most business-owners are hesitant to adopt web-based software solutions because of the assumption that having web-accessible data is insecure. If the proper steps are taken, the use of web-based software can be just as secure as on-site networked software, if not more. What steps do we take to ensure security and reliability for our applications?

Secured Servers
Our servers are professionally managed and secured by a company who specializing in network failures, hardware issues, attacks and power outages. The servers are located in highly-secured, technically-advanced data centers, virtually immune to power, network, and data outages, monitored 24/7 by a team of professionals. Our systems are engineered to stay up even if multiple servers fail.

SSL Encryption
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral. SSL is an industry standard and is used by millions of websites in the protection of their online transactions with their customers. (courtesy of SSL.com)

Our applications utilizes SSL encryption to encrypt and protect all of the sensitive data you send and receive over the web. All credit card transactions are processed using secure encryption�the same level of encryption used by leading banks. Card information is transmitted, stored, and processed securely on a PCI-Compliant network.

Firewalls
A firewall is a part of a computer system or network that is designed to block unauthorized access while permitting authorized communications. It is a device or set of devices configured to permit, deny, encrypt, decrypt, or proxy all (in and out) computer traffic between different security domains based upon a set of rules and other criteria. Firewalls can be implemented in either hardware or software, or a combination of both. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially intranets. Our servers are locked down by hardware and software firewalls, providing two additional layers of security. Both firewalls function to prevent automated and intentional attack attempts from malicious hackers, as well as any unauthorized network traffic, keeping your data as secure as possible.
