Subscribing ONLINE
via VerySign
SSL secure payment procedure:
A critical
concern for electronic commerce is the secure transmission of data.
To protect consumer data during transmission, VeriSign uses the
latest SSL
encryption technology that securely
passes transaction data to the VeriSign gateway.
However,
an even bigger security threat to electronic commerce is the storage
of data. To prevent data compromise in the storage server, VeriSign
stores sensitive transaction information on secure systems that
cannot be accessed through the Internet. Furthermore, VeriSign uses
hardware and software firewall
technology and additional encryption
technology to eliminate all opportunity
for intruders to break into a server and compromise information.
