General & Medical's commitment to website security

Encryption, the process of transforming information to make it unintelligible to all but the intended recipient, forms the basis of data integrity and privacy necessary for us. Clients submit sensitive information and purchase goods and services via the Web only when they are confident that their personal information is secure. The solution for businesses that are serious about online business is to implement a trust infrastructure based on encryption technology.

An SSL Certificate is an electronic file that uniquely identifies individuals and Web sites and enables encrypted communications. SSL Certificates serve as a kind of digital passport or credential. Typically, the "signer" of a certificate is a "Certificate Authority" (CA).

The diagram illustrates the process that guarantees protected communications between the General & Medical server and a client. All exchanges of SSL Certificates occur within seconds, and require no action by our clients.
