Manager's
highest priority is to provide a secure
Internet site. Our database is secured
with a specialized configuration of
hardware and software. Accessing
information from this configuration
requires passing through a highly
secured "firewall" and series of
filtering mechanisms. This environment
protects our database from Internet
security risks.
Personal
and plan information sent from our site
over the Internet is encrypted with a
security technology called Secured
Socket Layers (SSL). Our SSL web server
offers the highest level (128-bit RC4)
of encryption technology available. This
technology encrypts the information
before transmitting, so that only the
person requesting it is able to view it.

web site must be used with an SSL
compatible browser, Microsoft Internet
Explorer (version 3.0 or greater). If
your browser doesn't support SSL, or if
you've disabled that feature on your
browser, you won't be able to view any
information from our site.
You can
tell when you are secure by looking at
the location (URL) field. If the URL
begins with https://(instead of
http://), the document comes from a
secure server. This means your data
cannot be read or deciphered by
unauthorized individuals.
Access
Security
BenefitPlan
Manager
requires three layers of authentication
(group name, user name and password)
that must be satisfied in order to
utilize the site. The group names, user
names and passwords are stored in an
encrypted database that is isolated from
the Internet.
Optional IP
recognition can also be added for
Administrator Access and View Only
Access users to limit access to users
within their certain bank of IPs.
