Release Summary: Industry leading consumer intelligence solution
provider, Tracesmart Corporate have further intensified their
data transfer security through incorporating extensive password
protection procedures.
Press
Release Body: Tracesmart
Corporate have further enhanced the security of their
proprietary file transfer service to include a fourth tier of
password protection. The system mainly used to transfer large
amounts of information for asset reunification,
data cleansing and mailing list projects
already boasts three unique passwords, with the fourth specifically
developed to prevent any form of brute force style attack. If
three wrong attempts at the password are entered, access to the
files is automatically revoked, ensuring that data cannot fall
into the wrong hands. The enhanced system also logs all downloads
and reports back to the sender once the file has been sent. Whilst
high profile lapses in data security still fill the headlines,
thanks to their long-term IT security programme, Tracesmart
Corporate will never be vulnerable to such threats.
Since
the loss of the 3 computer discs containing 25 million child benefit
claimant records in November last year, the Governments Privacy
watchdog has received reports of over 100 data security lapses
Tracesmart Corporate
view this as unacceptable and are fully aware that they must maintain
the high levels of security their systems offer due to the nature
of data they deal in. "As a company, ensuring the security
of data whether it be a clients or our own has always been
a fundamental practice. We have always demonstrated a strong commitment
to data security, and the enhancement of our file transfer system
will not come as a surprise to those who know us and know our
working philosophy." comments Managing Director
Michael Trezise.
The
file transfer system was developed by Tracesmart Corporates
in-house IT team and the fourth tier password ensures that the
system provides the most secure method of transferring data. Paul
Weathersby, Technical Director, elaborates on some of
the technologies used, "Our file transfer system is built
upon a HTTPS transfer system which utilises SSL encryption a
proven technology. We have always used this form of coding across
our site as it is one of the most robust data encryptions available.
It is the same system employed across a variety of industries
for securing credit card details during payment transactions."
"Whilst
the system has always been incredibly secure, this additional
feature demonstrates to our clients that we never sit on our laurels
when it comes to the safety of their data. Whether a client is
trying to trace people or
conduct a large data
cleansing project, they can rest assured that their data is
in safe hands." concluded Weathersby.
