Keep All Your Data Secure with Sentinel, Our Authentication System.
Sentinel™ uses three methods to implement security:
SHA-1 hash algorithm, a one-way cryptography function
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm with 192-bit key lengths, which protects classified information up to Secret level. (Top Secret information requires the use of either 192-bit or 256-bit key lengths.) This is a two-way cryptography function.
Challenge/response authentication: upon request for authentication, the server issues the user a one-time token or signature which he/she uses to log on
Alongside safeguarding your data, Sentinel makes it possible for you designate secure parts of your website for access only by qualified users. It’s a tool your marketers can use to communicate private information to specific clients, suppliers, and third-party vendors—a nice touch for your marketing efforts.
