Security
Entering personal data on Dost Insurance is not only easy but also safe. Dost Insurance uses an Apache server with SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol, among the best Internet security software in the world, and Entrust.net certificates for securing the exchange of confidential data. This security technology encrypts the personal information that you send us (including things like names, addresses, emails and telephone numbers), so it cannot be read by anyone as it travels over the Internet. We will evaluate and adopt new security technology as it becomes available.
You can find out when the secure SSL connection is activated by looking for the key or padlock icon in the lower corner of your browser window. If the key becomes whole, or the padlock becomes closed, this indicates that the browser is now in “secure” mode.
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Dost Insurance is also a McAfee Certified site. McAfee has conductes regular scans checking daily vulnerability assessments for protection from hackers and third-party certification of security. McAfee’s advanced vulnerability discovery and management technology provides a highly effective security solution with an ROI proven in more than 1,000 published studies.
