Security Policy

Paylogix places extreme value on its client relationships. We recognize that it is a vital obligation when clients entrust us with their data. In order to protect client data, we are committed to secure and reliable client application operations.

​Paylogix Security Policy on File Transfers Using FTP

It is the policy of Paylogix to use industry standard best practices whenever possible to maintain data center operations securely and reliably. The purpose of this document is to provide an overview of these practices and the policies employed by Paylogix on file transfers using FTP. Serving as an easy and effective method by which to transfer files over a network, FTP has become a standard that is both accepted and widely accessible to users across almost every network and operating system in use today.

FTP Servers

Paylogix maintains an FTP file server to facilitate client data transfer. The FTP server is behind a firewall, and the server housing the encryption key is on a network behind a firewall not directly accessible via the Internet.

FTP User ID And Password Protection

Access to the FTP server is maintained by assigning authorized users a user ID and password-protected directory. All access to the FTP server is authenticated (no anonymous access is allowed). FTP software is configured to not allow authorized users to view or access any directory structure other than their assigned directory.

FTP PGP Encryption

Paylogix’ preferred method of receiving data is PGP encrypted files. PGP® or Pretty Good Privacy® is a powerful cryptographic product family that enables people to securely exchange messages, and to secure files, disk volumes and network connections with both privacy and strong authentication. Client data that is deposited on the Paylogix FTP server is moved to internal Paylogix networks prior to decryption. FTP servers are monitored for deposited files on a regular basis. The Account Team conducts file deposit monitoring either automatically via a scheduler or on a regular schedule.

PGP Key Protection

The Paylogix public key for PGP encryption is shared with clients that PGP encrypt data for transmission to Paylogix FTP servers. The Paylogix® provided private key for PGP Encryption is stored on a network file server, separate from the FTP server, and protected by native operating system security features in addition to a Secure ID. The private key “pass phrase” is only provided to Paylogix FTP Administration personnel whose job responsibility includes the decryption of client data files. Any employee who shares the private key “pass phrase” with an unauthorized person is subject to disciplinary action up to and including discharge.

Community Guidelines & Comment Policy

We want everyone to feel at home posting comments on The Paylogix Post. We don’t know what your home is like, but we know how we expect people to behave when they visit ours. That’s why we reserve the right to delete comments and ban users as needed to keep the comment threads here civil and substantive.

OUR NO. 1 HOUSE RULE IS SIMPLE: DON’T BE A JERK.

Want to be the kind of commenter we’d love to bring home to mom? Here’s what we like to see in comments:

  • Weigh in with smart, informed ideas that contribute further to the article or story.
  • Give us useful, constructive criticism. Spot a typo or an error? Let us know and we will correct it.
  • Demonstrate and share your experience, intelligence, wisdom, and humor we know you possess.
  • Don’t feed the trolls. You know how you sometimes have to just ignore the crazy stuff that your Father-in-law says for the sake of harmony and your own sanity? Same goes here. If comments are getting weird, please don’t make it worse. Down vote and flag comments instead.

Although we can’t be everywhere at once, here are some of the kinds of comments we’re going to do our best to curtail:

  • Promoting your own brand, product, or blog. You may submit your press releases here.
  • Impersonating authors or other commenters. We can’t believe we have to say this, but: Don’t do that. It’s weird.
  • Comments that make it clear you didn’t read the article. Enraged that we didn’t mention X in a story about Y? Slow down, Speedy McFingerson. If you’d made it past paragraph two, you’d see a very well thought-out discussion of that X you hold so dear.
  • Comments that are completely out of left field. Sometimes discussions veer off a bit, but are still related to the original subject. That is fine. Hijacking the conversation to promote off-topic commentary is not.
  • Threats — no matter how vague — against the author or other commenters. Again, we can’t believe that we need to say this.
  • Racism, sexism, homophobia, you get the drift. Call us the PC Police, fine, but don’t say we didn’t warn you when you get banned or deleted. This also CLEARLY falls under the, “rule #1 don’t be a jerk,” policy stated above.
  • Trolling. If you’re a climate denier just out for a good trolling and are not contributing meaningfully to the conversation, we’ll be pushing you back under the bridge, where you will likely drown from rising sea waters.
