Sentinel Underwriting Review, Inc. addresses
your concerns about security when providing information via
the Internet. Our goal is to make your online interaction with
us as valuable as possible by providing you with a personalized
Web experience. To deliver insurance underwriting information
that is relevant to your needs, we collect some information
online. Sentinel uses several technology tools for Web site
security, including:
- The Secure Socket Layer, which protects the
information you receive or send and prevents interception by
unauthorized parties.
- A firewall, which restricts unauthorized access
to our internal networks where your information is stored.
We also maintain and monitor an audit log, which
tracks the use of our security processes and highlights any suspicious
activity.

The Secure Socket Layer
is an industry standard protocol used for communication between
your Web browser and our Web server. It provides authentication,
data integrity and encryption. Your browser may give you
a message indicating you are entering a secure Web site.
You may also see a blue box outlining the secure page, and
if you usually see a broken key or open lock in the lower
left corner of your screen, you will notice it changed to
a full key or closed lock.

Authentication confirms
that we are who we say we are, and verifies that you are
communicating with our Web server. The Secure Socket Layer
uses digital certificates powered by Verisign to confirm
with your Web browser that you are accessing our Web server.
We proudly display the Secure Site Seal to assure you that
our Web site is authentic and that all data inquiries and
responses are secured by SSL encryption.

The Secure Socket Layer ensures that any alteration
to the contents of your message, either intentional or by accident,
will be identified and handled in an appropriate manner.
The Secure Socket Layer encrypts or "scrambles" the content
of your message as it travels across the Internet, making it difficult
for unauthorized interceptors to understand. Encryption codes the
information in your message, ensuring that it can only effectively
be decoded by our Web server
A firewall is a device, usually consisting of
software and hardware, which separates computers.
