Secure data transmission – SSL encryption

The POWELL website uses 128-bit SSL encryption. SSL stands for "Secure Socket Layer". It is an encryption method that guarantees maximum security within the World Wide Web. SSL certificates are used to protect the data from unauthorised access or changes during transmission so that third parties are not able to read or download the data. Each SSL certificate for a website is only assigned after an inspection of the company. Like an ID card or a driving license, an SSL certificate is also issued by a trustworthy body. As soon as customer data is entered or sent, encryption is activated. A lock is displayed at the bottom screen bar as an encryption symbol. All subsequent pages are thus safeguarded by SSL.

POWELL (...and 93 % of Fortune 500 companies) relies upon the industry leading, 128-bit VeriSign SSL certificate. You are always safe with us...
