Spyware:
Spyware refers to types of software programs, downloaded to a consumer’s personal computer either as a stand-alone application or as part of a software bundle, that collect (i) information about a consumer’s internet activities or (ii) other personal information, without providing meaningful notice to the consumer or obtaining the consumer’s consent. Spyware may gather personally identifiable information, such as e-mail addresses and credit card information, and may even alter personal computer settings. Spyware is often extremely difficult to remove once installed. AIS believes that Spyware is a threat to consumer privacy and forbids any employee, agent, partner, affiliate or contractor to deploy or use Spyware.

Armorhealth.com maintains direct links to other separate and individual web sites that offer information, which could be beneficial to our clients. Since these direct links are separate web sites independent of Armorhealth.com, they may not follow the same privacy guidelines set forth here.

Browser Security
To protect your personal information, Armor Insurance Services requires a browser with 128-bit encryption strength in order to access the secure parts of our site. AIS is serious about protecting our members’ privacy, and this level of encryption is an industry standard for the type of information we are exchanging.
Which browser should I use?
Fully supported browsers for the secure part of the web site include Internet Explorer (IE) 7.0 through 9.0 and Mozilla Firefox 3 through 11
Chrome & Safari 3.1 will let you register for our site; however, it is not fully supported. Once you get logged in, there are features that won’t be available with Safari, Chrome and other WebKit-based browsers
What is 128-bit encryption?
Encryption is the process of converting plain text into scrambled code to help to safeguard the transmission of confidential data. Most browsers use 40-bit encryption. Encryption at 128-bit strength provides a significantly greater amount of cryptographic protection.
The numbers “128” and “40” refer to the size of the key used to encrypt the message. With hackers gaining increasing computing power, it is necessary to employ larger keys than has been needed in the past. To compare the two, 128-bit encryption is approximately 309,485,009,821,345,068,724,781,056 times stronger than 40-bit encryption.
How can I tell if I have a 40- or a 128-bit encryption browser version? There should be information in your browser that tells you. Refer to your browsers “Help” section or home web site for details.
How do I get 128-bit encryption?
If you choose to upgrade your current browser, you can find patches or updated browser versions with 128-bit encryption on the home web site of your current browser supplier.
