How secure is the Web site handling the online application process?
Very secure. We use the Internet Grant Application Module (IGAM), provided by MicroEdge, to accept applications and proposals online. MicroEdge provides this service using a hosted Web-based application service provider (ASP). The MicroEdge hosting facility, co-located within one of AT&T’s secure Internet data centers, was chosen because of AT&T’s dedication to the highest levels of security. Communication from your browser to the IGAM server is accomplished via the Secure Sockets Layer protocol, or SSL. SSL is used to ensure end-to-end security and encryption of all data traveling from the applicant’s browser to the IGAM server.
