On-line ordering with Best4Systems is extremely safe. The order information including your personal details and credit card number are encrypted before being sent over the Internet to a secure server.

Please visit the Thawte Web site describing the 128-bit technology used by Best4Systems.

 

Equated to the real world, sending information without encryption is like sending a postcard through the mail - the contents are visible to practically anyone who wants to see it. Using this analogy, 40-bit encryption is like sending the information in an plain white envelope. 56-bit encryption could then be equated to using a security envelope that is printed to prevent it from being see-through.

Relative to these strengths, 128-bit encryption could be compared to encasing your data in a lead-lined, 12-inch thick titanium safe that is being transported by an armoured tank with a convoy of a hundred armed guards. In other words, 128-bit encryption is considerably more secure than 40 bit encryption.
