Security

BFS Direct has made every effort to ensure that your application with us is secure. We use various security procedures to protect you from identity fraud and the increasing problem of ‘phishing’ (illegally obtaining someone’s personal details - via the internet).
When you visit our application page you will notice a padlock logo that appears next to the website address (or in the bottom right of your screen if you’re using an older browser). |

See below how we protect your information
- We use a secure server
The server encrypts all your application details to protect you from identity theft.
- We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Encryption
There are two ways you can verify the site:
1. The first part of the site address where the application can be found starts with https://
2. There is a padlock sign next to the address or at the bottom of your screen
- The site's security comes in many layers
1. We make sure we implement the latest security patches on our operating systems
2. Our anti-virus software is maintained and updated
3. We use firewalls to keep out unauthorised sources
