About Our Site
Site Security - SSL Certificate Encryption Strength
Our Secure SSL Certificate enable you to protect your transactions and other activity on our Web site with as much as 256-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption. All you need to enable this high-grade encryption level is a Linux-based hosting plan and an SSL certificate for your site.
The actual encryption strength on our secure Web site connection enabled by a digital SSL certificate is determined by the level of encryption supported by your browser. For example, the Firefox browser enables 256-bit AES encryption with our SSL certificate. That means that if you use a Firefox browser or any other browser capable of supporting 256 bit encryption, your transactions with our site will be protected by 256-encryption. Thus with the right Web browser and our Web server, you can establish a 256-bit encrypted secure connection via a Secure SSL Certificate.
Encryption strength is measured in key length — number of bits in the key. To decipher an SSL communication, one needs to generate the correct decoding key. Mathematically speaking, 2n possible values exist for an n-bit key. Thus, 40-bit encryption involves 240 possible values, 128-bit encryption 2128 combinations, and 256-bit keys involves a staggering 2256 possible combinations, rendering the encrypted data de facto impervious to intrusion. Even with a brute-force attack (the process of systematically trying all possible combinations until the right one is found) cracking a 256-bit encryption is computationally unfeasible.
Screen Resolution Our Site Is Best Viewed At
Our site has been designed and optimized for screen resolution sizes of 1024x768 or greater, but is also adequately viewed in 800x600 resolution as well. If you would like to change your screen resolution to our recommended size of 1024x768, PC users Right-Click on "Desktop", then choose "Settings", chnage Screen Resolution to 1024x768 and click "OK". Mac users go to "Display Settings" in your System Prefferences Panel and select the appropriate Resolution. Click "OK".
