FootNOTE : about 'Secure' and 'in-the-Clear' transactions:
If
you mail a postcard by snail mail, it's quite possible that its contents
may be read by some third party while in transit. The same is true of data
crossing the Internet. Every packet of data sent from any computer to any
other computer will be handled in transit by perhaps two dozen other systems.
That makes for perhaps two dozen opportunities for someone to tap into a
conversation. If a criminal intercepts a packet containing credit card
information, he can use it to defraud the card's owner... unless the information
is encrypted. Encryption does for Internet data what envelopes do for snail
mail: it keeps private matters private.
Recent
versions of both Microsoft's and Netscape's browsers support what's called
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption. It activates automatically whenever
the browser is instructed to retrieve a URL beginning with https. If someone
on a system between the sender and receiver should intercept a secured packet
and view it, the contents would appear as gibberish.
If
the customer's browser supports SSL (https) encryption, he/she should be
strongly encouraged to take advantage of it - Go to, and Try first
Buy Now Securely.
Unfortunately,
a significant number of Web wanderers do not own browsers which support
encryption. In particular, WebTV's browser does not (at present) support
SSL encryption. As a business owner, you are faced with a quandry: do you
exclude a large segment of your possible market because they lack encryption,
or do you let them pay for merchandise over a NON-secure connection and hope
no one intercepts their packets?
Realistically,
merchants who sell to customers face-to-face have the same problem. What's
to stop a cashier from copying down credit card numbers? What's to stop a
thief with a good memory from looking over a customer's shoulder and memorizing
his/her card number? Nothing, really. What makes it unlikely that a particular
postcard will be read in snail mail is that it is one of millions. What makes
it unlikely that a particular packet will be intercepted on the Internet
is that it is one of trillions. Possible, but unlikely - Go to
Buy in the Clear.
We
strongly encourages end-users to take advantage of SSL (https) encryption
if they are able, but ibill also supports NON-secure (http) transactions
because the odds that one individual's credit card information will be
intercepted is not substantially higher than the odds for that information
to be intercepted at the corner grocery store.
