How secure are your services?

There are no translations available.

Before your data is transferred from your computer and/or server they are encrypted. All files are transferred over a secure SSL encrypted connection and the data remains encrypted on our servers. We use encryption equal to, or greater than, industry standards: For file transfer we use 2048-bit RSA, and for backup we use 256-bit AES, and both are approved and recommended by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a non-regulatory federal agency within the U.S. Department of Commerce. We can therefore be used for transferring sensitive data. You can also password protect your files, and only people you give the password to have the ability to download your files.

 

Your data is stored in a purpose built, state of the art, continuously monitored and guarded data center, certified according to EN ISO 9001:2000.
