How Secure Is Your Online Bookkeeping Software?
An accounting software online is very advantageous to you as a business owner and it has been used by many businesses to create, send and track all invoices online with ease. It also enables business managers like you to manage billings, customer contacts and payments online easily.
Despite the benefits it offers, it is also worth knowing if a certain online bookkeeping software you are using is safe and secure, considering that there are risks in using an unsecure online software. Hackers and malicious persons can easily intrude into an unprotected system. This will then expose your whole business system to unauthorized access that will eventually lead to financial and information heist. A bookkeeping software, after all, keeps all financial records about your business.
The fault of a break-in into an online software squarely falls on the developer because an online software must always have a secure connection to start on. No matter how protected a web server which hosts the online software is, the online software can still be hacked because there is some security loopholes with the software itself.
That is why it is very important to incorporate a secure connection to the online software. The most popular and most effective way to do that is through SSL or Secure Sockets Layer. It is a security platform that encrypts all communications between a web server and the web browser which is on the user side. Through SSL, the password or username that is typed will be encoded into a code that cannot be understood by a machine much less by human. Thus, making the connection private and secure.
SSL has been used by the leading companies in the world. When you log into Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Paypal or Twitter, you will be able to notice the “https” instead of the usual “http” which means you are on a secure connection. That goes also for a secure online bookkeeping software. It must be secured by SSL. If not, then you are risking your financial and information records online.
