Simply put, PrivateVault™ is a trusted service for the secure storage and access of electronic files and documents for the individual. PrivateVault was originally designed to meet the unique confidentiality needs of financial and professional service providers and their clients in such industries as banks, healthcare providers, credit unions, lawyers, CPAs, securities firms, and financial advisors.

While portable computers are vulnerable to theft or damage, PrivateVault gives the user peace of mind because your important documents and files are safe and accessible, no matter where the user is. Imagine:

• No more losing items when upgrading a computer
• No more losing emails and attached files when changing email accounts
• Comfortably receive bills and statements by email because a secure destination to permanently store them is available

PrivateVault is the ideal "access from anywhere, anytime" service to support an e-document delivery application to individuals, be they employees or customers.

What PrivateVault Gives You:

• Access to the Vault Anytime, Anywhere – Whether at home, the office or anywhere in the world, the vault owner has immediate access to important documents and files from any PC, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
  
  
• Secure and Confidential Access – To insure only the vault owner has access to stored information, EnterVault encrypts the transmission between the PC and PrivateVault. Plus, the data is stored encrypted on our servers.
  
  

  The vault login process can be protected with two layers of access security. Each layer of security represents something different about what one possesses.

  1. Something you know: an I.D. and password
  2. Something you have: a digital certificate installed on your computer

  With each additional layer of security, it becomes increasingly difficult and unlikely that a hacker would possess all of this information and be able to break into the vault.
  
  

• The Security of a Bank – People trust their bank with their money because banking practices are regulated and monitored according to federally set standards. Vault owners can entrust their electronic assets to EnterVault because:
  
  
  • Our data storage facility and security measures are monitored and reviewed by both an internal and external audit staff, and several federal agencies. We are committed to providing a trusted environment for storing and retrieving confidential information.
    
    
  • Our business practices, procedures, and system designs are audited by a federal agency. Our systems are periodically hacker tested. As part of our procedures and practices, even our engineers cannot decrypt customer data. We have a documented process for decrypting customer data, under wll defined situations, which involves members of the executive team getting access to CDs stored in physical safe deposit boxes.
    
    
  • As part of EnterVault's audited business procedures, we had to define a "business continuation" plan. Our plan currently involves the data center of a leading western bank taking over operation of our servers in the event that EnterVault as a business is shut down. Customers that have data stored on EnterVault servers will not wake up one day to find that the servers have been shut down and their data lost.
  
  
  
• Ease of Use – All that is needed is an Internet connection, a PC and a standard browser to use the service. PrivateVault presents an intuitive user interface, based on user-defined folders and drawers, for accessing and managing documents and data.
  
  
• Convenience – Ability to easily select a specific file and upload it to your vault, or download it from your vault to a PC.

  Digital Certificate Mobility
