| We realise that a
great deterrent to shopping online, is the risk associated with purchasing
goods with your credit card. We at Sheths.co.uk take this very seriously and
have linked our website to a very secure and safe e-merchant. |

Sage Pay provides very high levels of internet and
physical security to ensure sensitive information is never compromised.
|
Sage Pay security measures
|
|
credit/debit card details are secured within 128-bit
encrypted sessions. |
|
sensitive information is stored on a heavily encrypted
database that is protected by multiple government approved firewalls. |
|
additional security measures include a security key that is
used to produce an MD5 hash value. Hash values are often used as digital
signatures as they cannot be reversed to obtain the original information.
They allow the receiver to validate that the information received is
identical to that sent. |
Sage Pay VSP is designed so the vendor doesn't have
to hold sensitive information on their site, should anyone gain unauthorised
access to their database the information they obtain will not allow them to
recover credit card details or other sensitive information.
The possibility of obtaining sensitive information from the Sage Pay VSP
database is minimised due to high levels of encryption; firewall security
and the measures taken to ensure the information is indecipherable.
Physical security and resilience
Several forms of physical security and multiple levels of system backup
protect the Sage Pay VSP and database. This makes transaction processing highly
reliable and resilient to events such as security breach or power failure.
