The web can be a pretty scary place. Sometimes the fears are misplaced - in fact you are far more likely to have your credit card number stolen by the guy at the gas station, or the employee at the other end of that fax machine than you are on the net.

But security is vital if the Internet is to become a trusted medium. At Kupola, we take security seriously.

The most glaring problem in web commerce is the fact that most shops out there are based on freely-available, standard software. An experienced hacker knows how to exploit loopholes in this software, knows where the sensitive information is kept, and can, with luck and determination, access it.

At Kupola, we do not use off-the-peg software. Our solutions are individual, specialized and far more secure than run-of-the-mill web-biz scripts.

Carelessly-configured servers can offer significant opportunities to nosey hackers. We use secure servers from providers with a proven track record in tight security.

Your customers' information is only as secure as the weakest point in your transmission system. That usually means the email report which you receive with an order. Kupola can provide your business with a system to ensure vital details are never transmitted insecurely. They are encoded and collected via SSL ensuring responsible handling of private data.
