Adini uses the very latest encryption technology to protect your vulnerable information during all stages of any transactions.
We use the latest 256-bit SSL encryption when collecting information from a customer. This is much stronger than regular 128-bit SSL encryption used by the vast majority of our competitors. We make use of their SGC ‘Enhance’ technology, which boosts all computers to strong encryption levels, even if they are not natively capable. Therefore none of our customers have to worry about security because of the age of their computer.
We also use SagePay, the UK’s leading independent credit card processor, to carry out all transactions. Your credit card information is never stored on any of our systems, and is entered directly by the customer into the SagePay system encrypted using the highest levels of encryption based on 256-bit SSL keys from Norton Verisign, which are also Extended Validation (EV) SSL Keys, meaning they have been specially audited by one of the large security firms, and have daily penetration testing on the site to make sure it is always secure.
It has also been scanned for weaknesses by Trustwave, a major IT security firm, on behalf of the major credit card companies, and been awarded certification to process card transactions. This PCI (Payment Card Industry) scanning for the credit card companies and the banks is extremely rigorous, and must be performed monthly, as well as meet many other tough and strict PCI targets including the encryption of all data, and making it pointless to steal any data since it will be scrambled and unreadable.
Also payment card information can never be seen by our staff except the last 4 digits of a card, and the data must be stored on more than one server meaning for example half the long number willl be on one server, and the remainder on the other. Again these are all encrypted using the strongest commercial grade encryption, and cannot be tampered with. At no stage does the payment information travel via the internet to SagePay. You can rest assured that payment security at Adini is at the highest levels it can possible be at. The SagePay systems are held behind multiple firewalls, anti-intrusion protection systems and anti-virus scanners, and cannot be accessed from outside their building.
Our website is held off site in a secure Tier One data centre with 24 hour security 365 days a year, biometric scanning so only the staff with the correct clearance can enter the right areas on systems that are protected by multiple firewalls, anti-intrusion protection systems and anti-virus scanners. If you have any questions about the strength or integrity of our security, please feel free to contact us.
