Security & Reliability

Overview
Delphion protects the confidentiality not only of the information you provide us, but also the information you obtain while using Delphion Research — all while giving you the most reliable network you could ever want on which to do your research.

Security
Unlimited subscribers are given secure access to a dedicated server, where their entire session is encrypted. Delphion utilizes Secure Socket Layer (SSL) — a universally accepted technology for encryption and authentication of e-commerce transactions and the transmission of credit card information on the Internet.

The SSL security protocol provides an https secured connection that supports 128-bit encryption of all requests to and from the Delphion Research website. This is the same secure technology that most websites use to encrypt credit card information over the Internet.

In addition, the search function is conducted on separate search servers. These search servers never directly communicate with the user's web browser, and neither the IP address nor any other user information is passed to them.

Delphion Research automatically provides Secured Sockets Layer (SSL) connections for Unlimited level subscribers. Https connection is also used for all e-commerce transactions conducted on Delphion at all user levels (including Basic and Premier).


Reliability
Delphion Research uses more than 40 IBM servers to deliver its web-based intellectual property research services. Every component is redundant — including redundant power through two separate circuits. And we have backup power supplies, both UPS and generators.

These precautions give you a reliable network with no single point of failure. We also leverage RAID disk technology to ensure we do not lose data due to disk failure. Additionally, the servers are monitored 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.


Additional Details
See FAQ: Security, Privacy & Reliability in the Delphion Help Center for more information.

Pricing
SSL Secure Connections are available at no additional cost to Unlimited subscribers. Reliability comes with every search.
