FloTransPTC uses HTTP to transmit data via TCP/IP socket communications. By design, HTTP transmits packets (pieces) of a file across multiple Internet paths to reduce the security risk.
For higher-level security applications, third party Encryption Verisign that utilizes HTTP are also supported. As a result, FloTransPTC products are seamlessly integrated into most any environment; and with the highest available security offered on the Internet.
Data Security Level-I
FloTransPTC runs on a secure server which encrypts all data communication between your computer and our server. This means, anyone intercepting any data while it is being transferred from our server to your computer could not interpret or decode this data.
Data Security Level-II
To access the data from FloTransPTC server, a valid username and password is required. FloTransPTC allows you to change your password as often as you wish. We suggest that you change your password at least once every three months.
Data Security Level-III
FloTransPTC does not allow anyone to open any data file from our server. In order to open a data file, whether it is your dictation or transcription, it must be downloaded to your local computer.
