The security development team which provides our file storage is comprised of former Senior Principal Computer Scientists from a leading Internet security firm. The primary security goal in the design of our file storage was to protect the integrity of the client database, and to prevent access to your files or documents without your knowledge or consent. All logged in sessions use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) processing, which uses the same Internet-standard encryption processing that is normally used only for financial transactions. This ensures that all files being uploaded and downloaded across the Internet are encrypted for added privacy. The file storage server has several layers of data security:

• The web servers are deployed using a dual-homed configuration, thus providing specialized, application-specific firewall protection to our private network. This extra layer of security is specifically designed to keep your files and other information safe.
• All user files are safely stored on private network servers. These servers are machines that are physically isolated from the public Internet, for security purposes.

Physical security is provided by AT&T Enhanced Network Services in one of their world-class hosting centers — a “hardened” facility providing seamless connectivity, guaranteed uptime, mirroring capability, and security.

All files are stored on triply-redundant storage subsystems, providing exceptional data integrity.

• All client accounts use SSL for secure encrypted transmission
• Individual accounts and subaccounts are assigned login IDs and passwords for entry
• Individual, secure, permission based folders are provided for each client
