Login IDs and "strong" Passwords

Only you have the ability to access your BillDesk account through the Login ID and Password that you created during registration. User IDs and passwords restrict access to your BillDesk account exactly the way your personal identification number (PIN) protects your bank account at ATM machines.

BillDesk requires "strong" passwords that include a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numeric, and non-alphanumeric characters. Many web sites do not require strong passwords, but BillDesk believes that this additional security is important in safeguarding your personal and financial information. Please safegaurd this Login ID and password information.

Strong data encryption

At BillDesk, we use Secure Sockets Layer ('SSL') technology to encrypt information exchange. Unlike normal Internet communication, information provided to us at BillDesk is sent in a "secure session" established with SSL. SSL is a security protocol that provides data encryption, server authentication, and message integrity for a connection to the Internet. Using SSL ensures that the information you exchange with BillDesk is never transmitted over the Internet unencrypted and therefore cannot be viewed by unauthorized individuals. This encryption is done using 128-bit encryption, the maximum level of encryption possible on the Internet comparable to security levels used by financial institutions.

There are easy ways to tell if your browser is using a secure connection. One way is to look for a locked padlock icon at the bottom of your browser window:

Another way is to look for the change from the normal "http:" at the beginning of the web page address to "https:" :

The "s" indicates a secure connection! When you see those signs, you can rest assured that your online information is secure.

In the interest of security, we suggest that you end your browser session before leaving your computer.

Safe data storage and Access control

Your data resides safely in the BillDesk database and is protected by a firewall. This firewall is configured to receive and process requests only from authorized personnel. It can also detect any unauthorized activity around our servers. Further, some of the highly critical information such as your password, secret question, answer, etc are stored in the database in a hashed format, thereby preventing misuse of data even by any remote possibility.

We take regular back-ups of your data so that appropriate recovery measures can be initiated of the latest information if there are any problems.

Prudent risk management practices

In addition to hardware and software control measures, the internal processes within BillDesk are designed to identify flaws or breaches. These are in the form of different management and reporting controls that are embedded in the processes for customer registration, customer care, biller integration, etc.

We take security seriously and it is important to us that you understand and are comfortable with our security standards. If you have any questions, comments or complaints about our security policies or the way it affects you, please contact us at support@billdesk.com or call us at:
