What is ERAS doing to ensure the security of documents sent over the Internet?
ERAS works to protect document security in a number of ways. First, data is encrypted prior to being transmitted to the ERAS PostOffice and remains encrypted until after the program downloads it. Second, each ERAS user has a secure account and password that allows access only to one’s own “mailbox” in the ERAS PostOffice. Third, ERAS monitors activity on the PostOffice and are automatically alerted to any unusual activity.
