Security
Netopia has years of experience delivering collaboration products that utilize reliable and secure technology. Netopia has gone to great lengths to ensure that the security features built into eCare are designed to meet stringent IT security needs, such as common security protocols like firewalls and VPNs (Virtual Private Network). eCare's SSL support and multi-layer password authentication feature ensure privacy and confidentiality.
Firewall
In accordance with strict corporate security policies, all eCare communication occurs through the standard Web HTTP and HTTPS ports. This means your firewall does not have to be reconfigured to leverage eCare for online support. You can maintain the safety of your corporate network, while providing sophisticated, friendly support-faster than ever.
Password and Data Stream Encryption
Netopia's eCare requires each Support Agent to login to the eCare system with a user name and password. This protects your network against unauthorized access to support requests, and helps you track the activity of individual Support Agents. All data passed between the remote desktop and the Support Agent can be encrypted for secure data transfer using SSL, ensuring the secure transmission of passwords and other critical information. Session data can be viewed only with Netopia's eCare software.
Privacy
Using Netopia's eCare, Support Agents have direct access to remote computers to pinpoint and resolve technical issues more efficiently than ever before. At the same time, eCare allows ultimate control to reside in the hands of the customer, giving them first-priority control over the mouse and keyboard, enabling them to override mouse or keyboard actions taken by the support agent, with the ability to shut down the remote control session altogether. |
