Security for The Hive
The security of your data, The Hive and our systems is a primary concern of Quinte Computer Services Ltd. The Hive has been designed to operate, and be powered by, an extensive array of security software, monitoring devices and data encryption technologies that protect users of The Hive as well as the safe operation of our equipment and software.
The Hive - SSL is the standard, not an "add-on".
ALL Hive sites, BY DEFAULT, incorporate SSL site certifcates that ensure that assures that online users data and other confidential information cannot be viewed, intercepted or altered. And because the SSL certificates that we utilize are generated with one of the most advanced authentication systems in the industry, your customers and trading partners can be sure that the SSL web server certificates are only issued to fully authorized recipients. The SSL (secure socket layer) protocol is the web standard for encrypting communications between users and web sites. Data sent via an SSL connection is protected by encryption, a mechanism that prevents eavesdropping and tampering with any transmitted data. SSL provides businesses and consumers with the confidence that private data sent to a web site, such as credit card numbers, are kept confidential. Web server certificates are required to initialize an SSL session.

Systems Security.
The Hive is powered by the most robust and fully monitored technologies available today. All of our systems are managed and maintained by qualified professionals that continuously review security, application and systems usage.
Backup and Redundancy.
The Hive is powered by Sun Microsystems servers. All servers operate with RAID-level disk redundancy and are backed up each day to tape and transported to secured offsite data storage locations. QCS also has fully operational redundant servers, ready and waiting to take over should a more severe server(s) failure occur.
User Access - The most comprehensive level of authentication in the industry.
All user's of the Hive must enter the user id and password to enter their site. However, the security of user id's and passwords does not end at that point. Your own elected "site administrator" has the power to fully manage your users on the site. That means that your organization can completely control access to the site, based on your own requirements.
But the Hive takes it several steps further by allowing you to fully control how passwords are maintained and also when your users can access the site. Consider these "unmatched" user security advantages:
- New users are assigned Temporary Passwords that they must use the first time they enter the site. This random password can then be changed by the user so that they can maintain their own confidential password.
- Site Administrators can elect to "Block" users from accessing the site.
- Site Administrators can also set "hours/days of usage" for access to the site. Now, you can restrict employees from accessing the site during non-business hours or days when the business is closed.
- Site Administrators also have full control of what applications, sections or features of the site that a user may utilize.
