That's why we adhere to industry-standard practices and employ the latest technology to guard your privacy at all times. Here are some of the ways we protect you:

256-bit SSL Technology We use 256-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL), the industry standard for secure Internet communication. This technology encodes the information sent over the internet and makes it virtually impossible for someone else to access it. To take advantage of SSL, we recommend you use an SSL-compatible browser.

Firewalls A firewall is a filter used to determine whether information is allowed to travel from one network to another. Discover.com uses multiple layers of firewalls to block critical areas of our network from prying eyes.
