SSL Security

SECURITY MATTERS WHEN CHOOSING YOUR BULK SMS PROVIDER

Your Data Security is very Important

At Voodoo SMS, we see resellers as partners, rather than simply as agents peddling our product. We actively encourage the reseller model as we want as many people using our service as possible. And we give our resellers all the necessary tools to succeed

WHAT IS SSL?

WHAT IS SSL?

SSL is an acronym for Secure Sockets Layer. It's the little green padlock in the browser URL bar. SSL creates an encrypted connection between your web server and your visitor's web browser. This creates a private connection in which information can be transmitted just between your web server and your visitor's web browser. This private connection eliminates the possible problems of data tampering, eavesdropping or message forgery.

WHY DOES VOODOO SMS INSIST ON USING SSL ON EVERY PAGE?

We are always transmitting personal information on our site, like personal mobile phone numbers. This means that your SECURITY is paramount for us. You deserve to sleep carefree at night in the comfort of knowing that your customers information is in safe hands with Voodoo SMS. Every single page on www.voodooSMS.com has a little green padlock in the browser URL bar, constantly assuring you of our security.

WHAT FURTHER ACTIONS DO VOODOO SMS TAKE TO ENSURE YOUR SECURITY?

Understanding that the security of your data is paramount, we go above and beyond the call of duty to ensure your peace of mind. We undertake regular penetration testing to ensure our cybersecurity contains no points-of-weakness and fully complies to PCI DSS standards. Also, we choose UKFast for our managed servers - offering you round-the-clock protection behind a Cisco ASA Firewall.

SURELY ALL OTHER MAJOR BULK SMS PROVIDERS HAVE SECURE WEBSITES?

It may come as a surprise to many people that a lot of the major bulk SMS providers don't actually have websites that are as secure as they could be. Some major providers don't have an encrypted connection on their site at all, which means that the information you transmit to their site isn't actually private. A lot of the major providers have encrypted connections, but with an Obsolete Cipher Suite. Very few major bulk SMS providers have an Extended Validation Certificate, Voodoo SMS are one of few.
