LiveOffice Security - Data Protection

LiveOffice understands that your data files are the life-blood of your business and we do everything in our power to protect them. LiveOffice uses the latest security procedures to ensure the integrity of your data, from transmitting your files to our servers to storing them in our databases.

Data Transmission
The connection between you and any other point on the Internet can be routed through numerous independent systems, any of which can easily be monitored by unintended parties. To address this problem, LiveOffice employs 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption on all data transmissions, the highest standard availabe for Internet security.


What is SSL?

When you come across a web page that is secured, your browser will likely display a 'closed lock' or other symbol to inform you that SSL has been enabled. In a nutshell, SSL allows a secure connection between your web browser and a web server. This secure information 'tunnel' was developed by Netscape Communications and has been widely adopted by most of the Internet community.

Each server that hosts a SSL connection must obtain a digital certificate from a Certificate Authority. LiveOffice maintains a digital certificate from VeriSign. To obtain more information on 128-bit SSL encryption, visit VeriSign's website.


Data Storage
Once your data has been received by the LiveOffice servers, it is stored on a secure local area network (LAN), which sits behind multiple firewalls to protect your information from would-be hackers and thieves. Additionally, LiveOffice operates redundant servers and databases to guard against data loss.
