Secure Shopping
You can shop at www.mbswholesale.co.uk with confidence. We understand the need to provide you with a shopping environment where all the information you input is secure. Security measures are in place to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of the information received from our online visitors, and to make such information as secure as possible against unauthorised access and use.
Secure Payment Gateway
We have partnered with Sagepay and Paypal, the leading Payment Gateway Suppliers, to offer you an easy and secure credit card and electronic methods of payment. Sage Pay and Paypal encrypt every transaction to the highest global standards. Their secure systems are scanned and audited regularly by one of the world’s leading Qualified Security Assessors (QSA) so that we can both be confident about your secure payment online. Sagepay and Paypal are also fully approved Level 1 PCI DSS compliant suppliers, which is the highest level of compliance.
Secure transfer of information
All sensitive information is sent from your computer to our secure servers using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption to prevent data being intercepted during transmission provided by GeoTrust.
Features of SSL
ENCRYPTIONEncryption utilizes mathematical algorithms to transform data so that it can only be read by the intended parties. In the case of SSL, the private and public keys provided as part of the server’s digital certificate play an important role in securing data sent to and from the web browser.
INTEGRITYBy encrypting data so that only the intended parties can read it, SSL certificates also ensure the integrity of that data. In other words, if nobody else can successfully read the data, the data cannot be modified in transit. Modifying the encrypted data would render it useless, and the intended parties would then know that someone had tried to tamper with the data.
AUTHENTICATIONOne of the primary roles of the CA in issuing a digital certificate is to validate the identity of the organization, or person, requesting the certificate. SSL certificates are tied to an Internet domain name, and by verifying ownership of that name, a CA ensures that users know with whom they are dealing at a basic level. For example, when you connect to our SSL-enabled web site, the certificate identifies us, and you can be sure that you are dealing with MBS Wholesale.
NON-REPUDIATIONEncryption, integrity, and authentication combine to establish non-repudiation, which means that neither party in a secured transaction can legitimately state that their communications came from someone other than themselves. This feature removes the option for one party to repudiate, or “take back,” information that they have communicated online. https://www.geotrust.com/uk/
