information below to become better informed about the
internet security issues.
What
Does Security do with the Data Being Transmitted
Secure Socket
Layers (SSL) provide a means for submitting encrypted
data via the web. SSL works based upon a public key
/ certificate system. As data is transmitted it is
encrypted into 128 bit encryption and the web server then
decrypts the data once it is transmitted. In the
rare occasion that the data was stolen during the
transmission process, it would do the interceptor no good
as it would be completely encrypted in a code of randomly
mixed numbers and letters that only our server could
decrypt. Equity Trade Exchange uses the wold's leading
security provider,
Thawte.com
Overview: Security
on the Internet
The Internet works by sending information from computer
to computer until the information reaches its
destination. When data is sent from point A to point B,
every computer in between has an opportunity to look at
what's being sent. This can pose a security problem.
For example, you are viewing a clothing catalog on the
World Wide Web and you decide to buy a shirt. This
requires that you type information into an order form,
including your credit-card number. You know the clothing
company in question is reputable, so you type your
credit-card number and other information, and then send
the completed form. Your information passes from computer
to computer on its way to the clothing company.
Unfortunately, one of the computers in between has been
infiltrated by criminals who watch the data passing
through that computer until they see something
interesting, such as your credit-card number.
How often does something like this happen? It's hard to
say, but the important thing is that it's technically
possible. And, as the Internet grows, it could happen
more and more.

Microsoft
Internet Explorer: Helps protect you and your
data?
Many Internet sites are equipped to prevent unauthorized
people from seeing the data sent to or from those sites.
These are called "secure" sites. Because
Internet Explorer supports the security protocols used by
secure sites, you can send information to a secure site
with safety and confidence. (When you are viewing a page
from a secure site, Internet Explorer displays a
"lock" icon on the status bar.)
Internet Explorer can also notify you when you are about
to do something that might pose a security risk. For
example, if you are about to send your credit-card number
to a nonsecure site, Internet Explorer can warn you that
the site is not secure. If the site claims to be secure
but its security credentials are suspect, Internet
Explorer can warn you that the site might have been
tampered with or might be misrepresenting itself. To
specify when Internet Explorer should warn you, click the
View menu, click Options, and then click the Security
tab.
Other
Internet Browsers:
There are other browsers used for navigating
the Internet. Read the users manuals that come with your
software or click on the "Help" icon on
most browsers for instant information.

Submission: For sending sensitive information
You may call dicountbarter.com and
