Social Security Encryption Module

The Social Security Number (SSN) Encryption module allows you to maintain SSN in a secure manner only allowing those with the proper security clearance to be able to access the full SSN. The use of SSN's in iMIS puts members at risk if unscrupulous people are allowed to access or obtain the number for fraudulent purposes, for example, obtaining credit card accounts in another person's name. However there are sometimes legitimate business needs for maintaining SSN's including government regulations for certification. iMIS customers who have a legitimate need to maintain SSN's have a responsibility to make sure that access to the numbers is only available on a need to know basis. In addition the underlying data in your database must be encrypted. The Social Security Number Encryption module will help you setup your database to encrypt the SSN numbers and ensure that only those people you authorize will have access to the unencrypted numbers. This module requires that you have previously purchased the iMIS Xtender Module to allow you to run custom Xtender modules.
