Security Policy
Security
Here at officeprofiles.com we use protx as our payment
security service provider to process our online transactions. It is our top
priority to ensure that transaction data is kept secure at all times.
Transaction security
All transaction information is passed between our checkout and
the Protx VSP Systems and is encrypted using 128-bit SSL certificates. No
cardholder information is ever passed unencrypted and any messages sent from
our servers from Protx are signed using MD5 hashing to prevent tampering. You
can be completely secure in the knowledge that nothing you pass to
officeprofiles through the Protx servers can be examined, used or modified by
any third parties attempting to gain access to sensitive information.
Encryption and Data Storage
Once on Protx systems, all sensitive data is secured using the
same internationally recognised 256-bit encryption standards used by, among
others, the US Government. The encryption keys are held on state-of-the-art,
tamper proof systems in the same family as those used to secure VeriSign's
Global Root certificate, making them all but impossible to extract. The data
they hold is extremely secure and they are regularly audited by the banks and
banking authorities to ensure it remains so.
Links to banks
Payments made at officeprofiles.com go straight to Protx
(infact your card details cannot even be seen by us). Protx has multiple
private links into the banking network that are completely separate from the
Internet and which do not cross any publicly accessible networks. Any
cardholder information sent to the banks and any authorisation message coming
back is secure and cannot be tampered with.
Employee access
No individuals within officeprofiles or Protx are able to
decrypt transaction information or cardholder data. Protx systems only allow
access to thier most senior staff and only in extenuating circumstances (such
as investigations of Card Fraud by the Police). Your transaction information
and customer card information is secure even from our own employees because our
systems never display the full card numbers, even on administration screens.
