Getting the old holiday pat-down by a TSA agent last month got me thinking about security. Here at Zarca Interactive, the protection of your data is our top priority. We’ve recently moved to a highly secure office space and installed high-resolution cameras within our office to ensure that your data has more protection than Britain’s Crown Jewels. Our safeguards are in place, but are you doing everything possible to ensure the safety of your survey data?
Enabling SSL (Secured Socket Layer) in your surveys adds an extra layer of encryption to all transmitted data. SSL is essentially the TSA of the online domain. It serves as a checkpoint, only allowing your participant’s browser and our web servers to interact after we have given proof of our authenticated SSL certificate.
The SSL feature enables a uniquely encrypted channel for private communications. When participants submit their survey responses, you can rest assured that nobody’s eyes but yours will see the data — you get full-scale security without the full-body pat-down.
