IS IT SAFE TO USE FRAUDCRACKER?

WILL MY IDENTITY BE DISCOVERED?

Yes, it is completely safe to use FraudCracker to report fraud or unethical conduct. Here's why:

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE BUILT FOR

The whole reason why we built FraudCracker is to enable you to come forward to report fraudulent or unethical activity that you would feel uncomfortable reporting face-to-face. We know that the only way you're going to do this is if you feel completely safe. So our whole solution is built around you and making sure that you have complete peace of mind. That's our number one priority, and always will be.

WE'RE ON YOUR SIDE, EVEN THOUGH WE'RE PAID BY YOUR COMPANY

You might think that because we're paid by your company, that's where our loyalty lies. It's not true - in fact, our loyalty lies with you (the employee) since we know that without you we wouldn't have a business. In our Terms and Conditions which the company signed, we specifically told them that we won't reveal any information that we know (and you'll find out below that we actually know very little). If the company is not prepared to accept that, then we won't work with them. Simple as that.

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE BUILT FOR

When you make a submission through the FraudCracker tool, we ask only one piece of information about you - your email address. That's it. And you don't have to use your work email address either. You can use a personal email address, if you prefer. And if you really want to be safe, you can generate a new email address with one of the mail providers like gmail or yahoo to make you completely untrackable. If you choose to go this route, then make sure that you check this email account on a fairly regular basis to see if there has been any responses to your submission.

WE DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUR IP ADDRESS

That's right, we don't record your IP address. So you can use your work computer to make a fraud submission if you want. If you prefer, you can use a personal computer at home. And if you are really worried, then you can use a third party computer at an internet cafe or somewhere else.

WE ENCRYPT ALL YOUR RESPONSES

In addition, Fraudcracker uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) which is a cryptographic protocol designed to provide communication security over the internet. SSL technology makes use of X.509 certificates which are asymmetric and assure you that the exchange is secure.

Apart from SSL, which you can verify in the address bar via the lock icon and https prefix in the URL, Fraudcracker also makes use of Triple DES or 3DES to encrypt fields within the database. 3DES makes use of a 128bit key size and applies the Data Encryption Standard (DES) cipher algorithm three times to each 64bit data block.

The use of these two technologies makes it all but impossible for someone to eavesdrop on the connection or to gain any useful information from the database should it ever be acquired.

Hopefully we've addressed your concerns about safety. If you still have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with us on info@fraudcracker.com
