Completely Secure Online Ordering
Information transmitted over the internet may be open to scrutiny by others.
However, when you purchase with us on-line, we use Protx VSP secure server
software, which encrypts all your credit/debit card details/Payment Information
preventing it from being accessed or read by any third party.
Protx VSP offers high levels of encryption. Protx has been audited and approved
by APACS, Visa and MasterCard. Their secure servers are hosted at Globix as
they provide high levels of physical security and uptime.
Protx VSP provides very high levels of Internet and physical security to ensure
sensitive information is never compromised.
Security measures
Credit/debit card details are secured within 128-bit encrypted
sessions.
Sensitive information is stored on a heavily encrypted database that is protected
by multiple government-approved firewalls.
Additional security measures include a security key that is used to produce
an MD5 hash value. Hash values are often used as digital signatures as they
cannot be reversed to obtain the original information. They allow the receiver
to validate that the information received is identical to that sent.
Our Protx system is designed so that we do not have to hold sensitive information
on our site, so should anyone gain unauthorised access to our database the
information they obtain will not allow them to recover credit card details
or other sensitive information.
The possibility of obtaining sensitive information from the Protx VSP database
is minimised due to high levels of encryption; firewall security and the measures
taken to ensure the information is indecipherable.
Physical security and resilience
Several forms of physical security and multiple levels of system backup protect
the Protx VSP and database. This makes transaction processing highly reliable
and resilient to events such as security breach or power failure.
Only authorised personnel can gain access to the VSP Server and fingerprint
identification is required.
Multiple servers are dedicated to particular roles.
Multiple power supplies and backup generators feed the VSP Servers.
Secondary network connections will activate should the primary network fail.
VSP Servers have multiple connections to banking authorisation and settlement
systems
