SCRIP-SAFE® Security Products On-line Security Information

SCRIP-SAFE® Security Products is committed to adherence to the latest standards in electronic data interchange security. The cornerstones of our security measures are defined below.

  1. Encryption

    Encryption is the process of transforming information into an indiscernible coded message. Information transmitted while accessing school information over the Internet or submitting an online application is encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Technology, a state-of-the-art encryption process developed by Netscape Communications Corporation.

    This process utilizes a unique mathematical formula or "Key" to encrypt your information. Encryption strength is measured by the length of the "Key" used to encrypt the data. Longer "keys" provide more effective encryption. Browsers generally offer two levels of encryption strength:

    • 40-Bit Encryption Key (International Grade Encryption)
    • 128-Bit Encryption Key (Domestic Grade Encryption)
  2. Digital Certificate

    A Digital ID is an electronic fingerprint bonded to the "keys" used to encrypt information transmitted over the Internet. Referred to as a Digital Certificate, this unique identifier substantiates our online products and services identity to your browser. SCRIP-SAFE® is registered with the certificate authority, Thawte.
  3. Authentication

    Each user is authenticated by a unique username and password. System users are not allowed to share their authentication credentials with other users.
  4. Authorization

    Each user is designated with a system profile that limits his abilities within our various online products and services.
