How does an SSL server keep transactions secure?
A. Corpex’s SSL (Secure Socket Layer) servers are basically ordinary web servers with a crucial difference – they have the ability to encrypt your data using a variety of public-key encryption systems so that any person watching the flow of data (usually using a special program call a ‘packet sniffer’) cannot read any data that they see. This is obviously vital where a user is sending sensitive information, such as a credit card number, to a site using a web browser. This means that a secure server of this type is a fundamental requirement for the use of electronic commerce.
