Encryption and keeping payment details safe

Your payment details are processed by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). SSL is a security protocol used by web browsers and web servers to help users protect their data during transfer. An SSL Certificate contains a public and private key pair as well as verified identification information. When a browser (or client) points to a secured domain, the server shares the public key with the client to establish an encryption method and a unique session key. The client confirms that it recognises and trusts the issuer of the SSL Certificate. This process is known as the 'SSL handshake' and it can begin a secure session that protects message privacy and message integrity. 

If you have any questions about the security of your data email boxoffice@medway.gov.uk.
