It’s far more secure than having a PC on your network. If you’re asking this question, you probably won’t mind if we use a bit of jargon, so here goes. The decoding unit has no operating system or hard drive (the usual target of hackers); it simply decodes the stream and plays it out through the audio jacks. Assuming the decoding box is behind your firewall or router, it’s invisible to the outside world (even us). It comes pre-programmed with the address of your specific channel, so the decoding box (not our server) initiates the connection to your stream. CustomChannels.net uses the latest Windows Media and Shoutcast servers located in a hardened, secure data center in Denver, utilizing the technical backend of renown streaming provider Liquid Compass. If you have questions or concerns about the technology or our network, please contact us and we’ll give you all the details!  more
