ABOUT OUR SECURITY
THE SOUNDCLASH WEBSITE USES 128BIT SECURITY
What does this mean?
Most common browsers include an indication in the bottom of the window when you are communicating with a secure server:
When a secure server such as the page you fill in your card details are indicated, data that you send and receive is encrypted, which prevents anyone but you and the server from seeing the information exchanged. The protocol by which this takes place is called SSL - secure sockets layer.
In order to ensure that your SSL connection is to the actual server you intend, certificates and certificate authorities are used. The secure server and your browser automatically exchange certificate information when establishing a connection. If the certificate can be authenticated by a trusted certificate authority, the secure page will come up automatically.
LEVEL OF ENCRYPTION: A pop-up balloon will display if you move your mouse over the browser's secure icon:
128 bit encryption is the most secure level available today. Some browsers, especially outside the US, may not support 128-bit encryption. The lowest standard encryption level, 40-bit, is still difficult to crack and would require a determined and sophisticated effort.
The Soundclash website uses 128bit encryption.
