What steps are being taken to ensure the privacy and security of my account information?

BeneCare takes safeguarding the privacy and security of your account information very seriously. To that end, BeneCare's Web services have been built following strict security best practices that include:

     
  1. A BeneCare Web service to your company, it is only available to those who are authorized by an employer to use the service.
  2. Services are secured behind a firewall with monitoring of unauthorized access attempts. Evidence of inappropriate use is investigated.
  3. Your selected password must be a minimum of 8 characters in length. Passwords must be unique from your name and any prior passwords used.
  4. BeneCare's Web Services provide users with capabilities to perform password changes. For the continued protection of your account, we encourage you to use this facility on a periodic basis.
  5. BeneCare uses the most secure version of communications available for your protection. Only browsers that support Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and 128-bit encryption (also known as domestic or U.S. grade security) can be used to access these Web services. SSL minimizes the likelihood that third parties will read electronic messages between you and BeneCare, even if intercepted.

    Internet Explorer
    Netscape Navigator or Communicator

How can I tell if my online session with BeneCare is encrypted?

Netscape browsers have a key icon and Microsoft Internet Explorer uses a padlock to represent an encrypted session. These icons are displayed in the lower right corner of your browser. A broken key or an open lock indicates that the session is not encrypted. (Although a broken key or open lock might appear when the page loads between two encrypted pages, the session is still encrypted if the key or lock is present when the page has finished loading.) Note that if you leave a BeneCare Web Service for any reason, your encrypted session will be interrupted and you will need to log in again when returning.
