But Don't Be Concerned - Here's Why ...
The website you have just come from utilises the e-Path payment gateway. e-Path has been specifically engineered to remove vulnerabilities that have plagued online e-commerce activity since its inception.
With e-Path there are no critically sensitive credit card details, identity data or transaction history information permanently stored within our systems. This ensures your highly sensitive details are handled with a level of security quite unique within the online credit card payment gateway industry.
No More Critically Sensitive Data Permanently Stored Online
Close to 95% of data theft happens because highly sensitive and confidential information is stored in online databases, within data storage appliances or is accessible via network communication in some form or another. Unscrupulous individuals and criminal elements target these "treasure chests" of sensitive credit card and identity data.
The Problem Traditional real-time payment gateways store names, credit card details and trasaction history data in databases or in data storage devices in some form or another. If these become breached, the consiquences can be catastrophic for businesses and cardholders alike.
The e-Path Solution e-Path does not permanently store credit card data, identity data or transaction data of any type within our systems. We don't even have databases. Once the merchant/business owner receives the payment details, it is as if the data never existed online.
✔Today e-Path provides a refreshingly inexpensive, safe and secure service worldwide that ensures sensitive cardholder data never exists permanently on the internet, in any database or within any storage device in any shape or form. And as we say ... when it doesn't exist, it cannot be stolen.
Powerful Leading-Edge Cryptography
While we are handling your credit card details, they are locked tight with our use of both 2,048-bit and 4,096-bit RSA encryption - the same level of protection used by some of the most intensely security aware organisations in the world and approved by card vendors themselves.
The data above is an actual encrypted credit card belonging to our Managing Director, Peter Thwaites. It has been on public display on our website since 2016 and still remains 100% secure to this day. A bold and powerful demonstration of the encryption deployed by e-Path throughout its systems.
CDU Compliance - Utopian Cardholder Data Protection
CDU (Critical Data Unplugged) is a strategic initiative that advocates for the complete removal of sensitive data from the internet's reach. While CDU remains an unoffical standard, mainly because in our internet reliant world that's an impossible ideal to achieve, it does represent absolute data security online. So powerful is CDU we've given it its own page. See: CDU Compliance.
PCI Compliance
On the other hand, the PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards) is an official standard. e-Path utilises the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards Council approved Security Metrics™ PCI DSS program. See e-Path Security.
