Credit Card Security
We know customers are concerned about credit card security. This site does
not accept eCommerce payments. On our sister eCommerce site
SwissTonix.net we use 256 bit SSL encryption technology.
An SSL Certificate enables encryption of online
transactions and communications.
Secure Sockets Layer supports both
industry-standard 128-bit (used by banking infrastructures to safeguard
sensitive data) and high-grade 256-bit SSL encryption to secure online
transactions. The actual encryption strength on a secure connection using a
digital certificate is determined by the level of encryption supported by the
user's browser and the server that the Web site resides on. 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- and 256-bit keys
involve a staggering 2128 and 2256 possible combinations,
respectively, 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 128- or 256-bit encryption is generally considered computationally
unfeasible.
