Our databases are protected from general employee access both physically & logically. We encrypt your Service password so that your password cannot be recovered, even by us. All backup drives & tapes also are encrypted.
We use a combination of firewall barriers, encryption techniques & authentication procedures, among others, to maintain the security of your online session & to protect Tripnose accounts & systems from unauthorized access.
No employee may put any sensitive content on any insecure machine (i.e., nothing can be taken from the database & put on an insecure laptop).
Tripnose has been verified by Starfield Technologies for its use of SSL encryption technologies.
However, it is important to understand that these precautions apply only to our Site & systems. We exercise no control over how your information is stored, maintained or displayed by third parties or on third-party sites.
Our service ensures secure communications with encryption
From the time you submit your Login ID & Password, these communications between your computer & Tripnose are encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer technology. SSL enables client & server applications to communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering & message forgery.
