Our
Web site provider, uses software that incorporates full
RSA data encryption to ensure the security and privacy
of transactions. This encryption technology is so secure
that it is classified by the U.S. Department of Defense,
and export of this technology to other countries is forbidden
by law. As a further security measure, we utilize our
Internet server as a firewall, thereby preventing our
members' data from being directly accessible over the
Internet.
Security
refers to preventing unauthorized access to a computer
system or network. We use several layers of technology
to prevent unauthorized users from gaining access to our
internal network. Our security professionals manage a
sophisticated networking architecture that includes screening
routers, filtering routers, and firewalls.
Firewalls
The firewall is used to shield the internal
network, which hosts the financial institution's Web pages
from the Internet. All incoming Internet Protocol (IP)
traffic is actually addressed to the firewall, which verifies
the source and destination of each information packet,
changes the IP address of the packet, and delivers it
to the appropriate site within the Digital Insight network.
In this way, all inside addresses are protected from outside
access and the structure of our internal networks are
invisible to outside observers.
Privacy
Privacy refers to protecting the confidentiality
of information en route over the Internet. Browsers that
support the SSL protocol (Secure Sockets Layer) provide
the following techniques.
Encryption
provides privacy for the data flowing on the Internet
between your browser and the secure server. SSL utilizes
public key cryptography.
Public
key cryptography is a technique that uses a pair of keys,
one public (or distributed) and one private (or confidential),
for encryption and decryption. The public key can be distributed
using a certificate that verifies the identity of the owner.
The private key is kept confidential.
Whenever
you access our institution's Web site, the session is
protected by public key cryptography
Authentication:
SSL protocol allows for the transfer of digitally signed
certificated for authentication procedures and provides
message integrity, which ensures that the data can't be
altered en route. Digital certificates with VeriSign,
Inc., an independent certificate authority.
